Life is a Mysterious Journey:
In the course of our travel through this unforeseen & unpredictable link of events, we are confronted with newer and deeper secrets about both the Inner and the Outer World. It has always attracted the spirits of the chosen few, who have dared to explore and unravel the hidden principles governing this vast cosmos through time immemorial. Their endeavors and understanding have not only helped in establishing a harmonious environment for mankind, but has challenged every human being to break through one's limited consciousness and merge into the universal source of knowledge, illumination, bliss, truth... whatever we name that state of "Namelessness".
A human life infect, has two distinct entities. The outer physical form and inner subconscious. Through the former we become the part of mundane world which consists of pleasure, comfort, happiness, wealth, children, and a family on one hand, and ailments, pain, anger, anguish and anxiety on the other. But much more significant then this apparent aspect of life is the inner subconscious, which has not been fully comprehended till now. Daily new drugs are discovered and prepared; new amenities are being invented to make human life more and more comfortable. But despite of all this, the common man is today sad, he is suffering and is anxious due to the day and day problems, which seems to have ensnared him. True joy, which form the essence of human life, is missing, and without it the human life seems to be a burden and totally meaningless.

Physics and Philosophical Reason:
The basic oneness of the universe is not only the central characteristic of the mystical experience, but is also one of the most important revelations of modern physics.

"All this- whatever exists in this changing universe, is pervaded by God" -Isa Upanishad
The theory of Karma is common to many oriental religions. In its most popular form it states that there is a universal accounting system in which each individual must experience the consequences of all his actions (Karmas); good actions bring good results and bad actions inevitably result in suffering to the one who does them. The theory also states that the consequences of actions (also known as Karmas) need not necessarily be experienced in the present life, they can be carried over into future lives.

Cosmic Law:
The cosmic vibration & laws of action(karma),which govern the universe came from the gods infinite intelligence inherently present in all vibratory creation.This consciousness of god the son"TAT" immanent in all vibratory creation sprang from the immutable god the father "SAT" existing beyond all vibratory creation.the creative Brahma being the reflected consciousness & existing in relation to the cosmos is therfore a temporary manifestation,dissolving in spirit when at the time of cosmic idssolution all cretion resolves back into the absolute, the sole impreishiable.
Within the brahman creative consciousness is Mula prakriti(SHAKTI), uncreated or undiffiereated nature,which holds the seed of all creation.Through the outflowing vibratory activity of god's will in the form of intelligent cretive cosmic vibration "AUM" the quiescent Mula prakriti is differentiated and as various vibratory forces & energies,the now-active prakriti brings into manifestation the multiform creation.
The intelligent cosmic vibration has two properties,cosmic light & the cosmic sound"AUM" all are the witness or evidence of the creator in his creation.Relative to the cretion of man these verses explanation from gita is explained as follows: the cosmic energy of the creative cosmic vibration is the immidiate source of all life-sustaning food.Thus man who is a microcosm of the universe is a product of cosmic energy of astral life.

Myth,religion and Science :
Myth, religion and science have more often than not proved inseparable in addressing the eternal imponderable: why something rather than nothing?Since the dawn of civilization, humankind has marvelled at the skies and at Nature’s myriad creations. This sense of wonder was deeply interwoven with a sense of fear: Nature’s dual role as creator and destroyer has puzzled and polarized our perceptions of the cosmos. As a way of establishing a degree of control over the apparent unpredictability of natural phenomena, gods were held responsible for these conflicting manifestations. In short, Nature was deified.The question of why there is something rather than nothing was a crucial part of this process. All cultures have attempted to provide an answer to the mystery of creation, and our modern scientific tradition is no exception. Myths without a creation event may consider time to be either unimportant or cyclic. Within these two sets, we encounter an enormous variety. Starting with the “no creation myths,” the two possibilities are: an eternal, uncreated cosmos, as in the narrative of the Jains of India, or a cyclic cosmos, continuously created and destroyed, as beautifully represented in the Hindu tradition by the dance of Shiva.
Scientific inquiry is after all an ongoing process—there is no final truth, only approximations to the truth. Furthermore, science, at least as it is formulated at present, cannot answer questions concerning its own origin: we do not know why the universe operates according to the laws we have uncovered and not others. This essential incompleteness of science suggests a new form of complementarity between science and religion; religion does not exist to cover the holes of our scientific knowledge, but as a driving force behind scientific inspiration. Through our search for knowledge we uncover our true nature, fuelled by the same sense of mystery which filled our ancestors with awe.

God..........?
The first belief of the Hindu is in the existence of a Supreme Being. This Supreme Being is described in the Vedas as "unmanifest, unthinkable and unchanging, neither existent nor non-existent." He is immutable and unthinkable; He is the Lord of the Universe. Though He is the source of all that is, He is himself unmoved forever.
The supreme being is Sat Chit Ananda.The most potential source of all is the Atma(The Soul).From Atma the Universe Emerges. It exists in Atma.It merges in Atma.All is known by five sence organs and mind.But mind cannot see the Atma.Any vibration of the mind is possible only by Atma.Vibration of mind is in two forms :
(1) Concept (2) Feeling
Since the mind cannot see Atma,the human being cannot imagine the supreme being.
What is God.....?
Life is Energy. When God infused Life into Space it was filled with Energy that flowed from outside the sphere, that is the Space Beyond. The original Source is, therefore, a self- perpetuating and self-generating power house much like the Sun. Unlike the Sun and the stars it is self-created and inexhaustible, permanent and unchanging. If this is also a creative effort of someone, then He is God. He is the only One, beyond everything including Space and Time. Therefore, awareness of God could mean only Cosmic Consciousness. All of them agree, however, there is only one God and it is the Eternal Source. That which is permanent and unchanging and that has no beginning or ending is God say the Hindu scriptures. The Upanishads, the substance of the holy Vedas, set out to probe the truth about God. Adopting the ‘Doctrine of Inquiry’ propounded by the Indian Sage, Yajnavalkya, they examined all the products of Creation one by one and rejected them as ‘neti, neti’ (this is not it, this is not it) and finally concluded that God is Truth, Knowledge, Bliss (Sat, Chit, Ananda) and much more. But all these are abstract and denote nothing in substance, just as Space and Time. Yet everything—the Cosmic matter, Life and Soul—came out of it. Then God is Nothing and the Whole at the same time. Symbolically one can say that God is a zero and a sphere at the same time. The digit zero can be visualized as a sphere too. The sphere, viewed from any angle, looks like the digit zero. As zero it depicts nothing. As a sphere it is full. In the beginning the sphere was empty space. Time had nothing in it.
SCIENCE AND RELIGION
Science is the struggle of man in the outer world. Religion is the struggle of man in the inner world. Science makes man struggle for Truth in the outside universe, and religion makes him struggle for Truth in the inner universe. Both struggles are great, no doubt, but one ends in success and the other ends in failure. That is the difference. Religion begins where science ends. The whole scientific method is based on observation and experiment; but the moment man realises that there is something beyond observation and experiment he will give them up and leave material science behind. Science will always have to deal with finite bodies, and God is infinite.According to Vedanta philosophy the microcosm and Macrocosm are not different; they originate from the same substance. Actually time, space, and causation are not separate entities outside; they all exist in me, that is, in my mind. The whole universe is inside man.
Existence Of God By Siva Shankar Baba :
A: Why does the Lord not reveal His original form? Take this instance. You may be familiar with the practice of persons offering milk in an effort to appease serpents, and to get absolved of Naga dosha (horoscopic affliction caused by the transit of shadow planets Rahu and Ketu). Assume that a serpent slithers out with a contented hiss to drink the milk they offer. That is the end of it. You will never again see any person near the serpent-hill. God knows you. He understands your fear. So He does not appear to you in His original form.
B : You will run away in fright if Lord Narasimha reveals His fiery presence to you! Krishna revealed His cosmic Viraat Viswaroopa form to Arjuna. The entire universe was contained in that Form. Arjuna closed his eyes in fear and requested Krishna to re-assume His human form. The Lord was revealing His original form, but Arjuna could not take it, he was scared stiff of that Rudra Roopa. Arjuna requested Krishna to reveal to him a simpler form.
C: So it is not binding on God to present Himself in a form of your liking. He may appear in His Rudra Roopa or in the form of Fire. You get electric shock if struck by a 220-volt current. How will you bear the Current flowing in the Lord’s original Form? You will be blinded with His presence, dumbstruck with awe.
Face to Face with Supreme Cosmic Energy....?
1: God can appear in His original form. But you are not attuned to receive Him. You have to insulate yourself. For a normal 220-volt electricity, you take all precautions like wearing rubber gloves and sandals or holding on to a wooden desk. Similarly, you must prepare yourself for receiving the Lord’s Presence. Penance, meditation and prayers combine to charge you with enough electricity to bear the flow of the Highest Voltage Energy called God.
2: When a surgeon enters an operation theatre, he covers his nose, wears gloves and sanitized shoes. This is to prevent the patient from getting infected. When you visit the Kalpakkam atomic energy unit, you are given a protective garment to wear; this is to ensure that you are not affected by the radiation. Science guides you to keep yourself insulated. God is such a Mighty Dynamo. He knows we have not yet mellowed and so He does not appear in His original Form. And just because He cares for us so much, is no reason why you must doubt His very Presence.
3: Most of you are familiar with the Himalayas on the map only. You have not seen those mountains in person. Does that negate the presence of the Himalayas? Many of you have not visited New York. Does that mean that that place does not exist? You have to take the required efforts, buy plane tickets and travel to that place. Similarly,there is a certain route to traverse to the destination called God. There are some prescribed routines to follow that will help you attain Him.
4: When I was delivering a discourse at the M.I.T. in USA, a person asked me, ‘Can you reveal God right now?’ I asked him, ‘What course are you pursuing at the University?’ and he replied, ‘Ph.D.’. ‘How many years of study?’ I asked him, to which he said, ’Ten years.’ He had been researching various books and treatises for a minimum of 15 hours a day. I told him, ‘Towards a Ph.D. degree, you have done thesis on a miniscule fraction of some scientific truth. God is The Entire Truth. Do you feel He must be perceivable in a split second? Don’t you feel that you have to perform eons of penance to attain Him?’
5: How will you ever make a person understand what an apple looks like, till he has seen it for himself? Even in the worldly sense, you are able to understand an object’s appearance based on experience only. God is an inexplicable being and we do not have any prior knowledge of Him. That is why we do not understand His Presence. We discern an unknown being only through a known object. And none of those who have known Him was in a position to express his or her experience. Secondly God is not an object. It is neither an object nor a subject. It is an experience of subjectivity. We can become God; if we say we have seen God, we are uttering lies. This is because God is not outside. He is within everyone; He is everything on Earth.
"He who seeks God with absolute sincerity is sure to comprehend God. This is why no one ever arrives at the actual answer to this question. ‘Kandavar Vindilai; Vindavar kandilai’. ‘Those who have seen, have not explained. Those who attempt to explain, have not seen’. Why have those who have seen, unable to explain? They have only been able to experience that bliss of Divinity; it is not possible to express it in words".
By Siva Shankar Baba
Question: "Does God exist?
Is there evidence for the existence of God?"
Answer: http://www.gotquestions.org/
1: The existence of God cannot be proved or disproved. The Bible says that we must accept by faith the fact that God exists: “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6). If God so desired, He could simply appear and prove to the whole world that He exists. But if He did that, there would be no need for faith. “Then Jesus told him, ‘Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed’” (John 20:29).
2: Looking at the stars, understanding the vastness of the universe, observing the wonders of nature, seeing the beauty of a sunset—all of these things point to a Creator God. If these were not enough, there is also evidence of God in our own hearts. Ecclesiastes 3:11 tells us, “…He has also set eternity in the hearts of men.” Deep within us is the recognition that there is something beyond this life and someone beyond this world. We can deny this knowledge intellectually, but God’s presence in us and all around us is still obvious. Despite this, the Bible warns that some will still deny God’s existence: “The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God’” (Psalm 14:1). Since the vast majority of people throughout history, in all cultures, in all civilizations, and on all continents believe in the existence of some kind of God, there must be something (or someone) causing this belief.
3: A second argument is the teleological argument. The teleological argument states that since the universe displays such an amazing design, there must have been a divine Designer. For example, if the Earth were significantly closer or farther away from the sun, it would not be capable of supporting much of the life it currently does. If the elements in our atmosphere were even a few percentage points different, nearly every living thing on earth would die. The odds of a single protein molecule forming by chance is 1 in 10243 (that is a 10 followed by 243 zeros). A single cell is comprised of millions of protein molecules.
4: A third logical argument for God’s existence is called the cosmological argument. Every effect must have a cause. This universe and everything in it is an effect. There must be something that caused everything to come into existence. Ultimately, there must be something “un-caused” in order to cause everything else to come into existence. That “un-caused” cause is God.
5: A fourth argument is known as the moral argument. Every culture throughout history has had some form of law. Everyone has a sense of right and wrong. Murder, lying, stealing, and immorality are almost universally rejected. Where did this sense of right and wrong come from if not from a holy God?
-People claim to reject God’s existence because it is “not scientific” or “because there is no proof.” The true reason is that once they admit that there is a God, they also must realize that they are responsible to God and in need of forgiveness from Him (Romans 3:23, 6:23). If God exists, then we are accountable to Him for our actions. If God does not exist, then we can do whatever we want without having to worry about God judging us. That is why many of those who deny the existence of God cling strongly to the theory of naturalistic evolution—it gives them an alternative to believing in a Creator God. God exists and ultimately everyone knows that He exists. The very fact that some attempt so aggressively to disprove His existence is in fact an argument for His existence.
In the end, God’s existence must be accepted by faith (Hebrews 11:6). Faith in God is not a blind leap into the dark; it is safe step into a well-lit room where the vast majority of people are already standing.
Question: "Why does God allow natural disasters, i.e. earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis?"
Answer:
Why does God allow earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes, tsunamis, typhoons, cyclones, mudslides, and other natural disasters? Tragedies such as the 2004 tsunami in Asia, Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the 2008 cyclone in Myanmar, and the 2010 earthquake in Haiti cause many people to question God’s goodness. It is distressing that natural disasters are often termed “acts of God” while no “credit” is given to God for years, decades, or even centuries of peaceful weather. God created the whole universe and the laws of nature (Genesis 1:1). Most natural disasters are a result of these laws at work. Hurricanes, typhoons, and tornados are the results of divergent weather patterns colliding. Earthquakes are the result of the earth’s plate structure shifting. A tsunami is caused by an underwater earthquake.The Bible proclaims that Jesus Christ holds all of nature together (Colossians 1:16-17). Could God prevent natural disasters? Absolutely! Does God sometimes influence the weather? Yes, as we see in Deuteronomy 11:17 and James 5:17. Numbers 16:30-34 shows us that God sometimes causes natural disasters as a judgment against sin. The book of Revelation describes many events which could definitely be described as natural disasters (Revelation chapters 6, 8, and 16). Is every natural disaster a punishment from God? Absolutely not.

That is why we do not understand His Presence. We discern an unknown being only through a known object. And none of those who have known Him was in a position to express his or her experience. Secondly God is not an object. It is neither an object nor a subject. It is an experience of subjectivity. We can become God; if we say we have seen God, we are uttering lies. This is because God is not outside. He is within everyone; He is everything on Earth.
"He who seeks God with absolute sincerity is sure to comprehend God. This is why no one ever arrives at the actual answer to this question. ‘Kandavar Vindilai; Vindavar kandilai’. ‘Those who have seen, have not explained. Those who attempt to explain, have not seen’. Why have those who have seen, unable to explain? They have only been able to experience that bliss of Divinity; it is not possible to express it in words".
By Siva Shankar Baba
Question: "Does God exist?
Is there evidence for the existence of God?"
Answer: http://www.gotquestions.org/
1: The existence of God cannot be proved or disproved. The Bible says that we must accept by faith the fact that God exists: “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6). If God so desired, He could simply appear and prove to the whole world that He exists. But if He did that, there would be no need for faith. “Then Jesus told him, ‘Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed’” (John 20:29).
2: Looking at the stars, understanding the vastness of the universe, observing the wonders of nature, seeing the beauty of a sunset—all of these things point to a Creator God. If these were not enough, there is also evidence of God in our own hearts. Ecclesiastes 3:11 tells us, “…He has also set eternity in the hearts of men.” Deep within us is the recognition that there is something beyond this life and someone beyond this world. We can deny this knowledge intellectually, but God’s presence in us and all around us is still obvious. Despite this, the Bible warns that some will still deny God’s existence: “The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God’” (Psalm 14:1). Since the vast majority of people throughout history, in all cultures, in all civilizations, and on all continents believe in the existence of some kind of God, there must be something (or someone) causing this belief.
3: A second argument is the teleological argument. The teleological argument states that since the universe displays such an amazing design, there must have been a divine Designer. For example, if the Earth were significantly closer or farther away from the sun, it would not be capable of supporting much of the life it currently does. If the elements in our atmosphere were even a few percentage points different, nearly every living thing on earth would die. The odds of a single protein molecule forming by chance is 1 in 10243 (that is a 10 followed by 243 zeros). A single cell is comprised of millions of protein molecules.
4: A third logical argument for God’s existence is called the cosmological argument. Every effect must have a cause. This universe and everything in it is an effect. There must be something that caused everything to come into existence. Ultimately, there must be something “un-caused” in order to cause everything else to come into existence. That “un-caused” cause is God.
5: A fourth argument is known as the moral argument. Every culture throughout history has had some form of law. Everyone has a sense of right and wrong. Murder, lying, stealing, and immorality are almost universally rejected. Where did this sense of right and wrong come from if not from a holy God?
-People claim to reject God’s existence because it is “not scientific” or “because there is no proof.” The true reason is that once they admit that there is a God, they also must realize that they are responsible to God and in need of forgiveness from Him (Romans 3:23, 6:23). If God exists, then we are accountable to Him for our actions. If God does not exist, then we can do whatever we want without having to worry about God judging us. That is why many of those who deny the existence of God cling strongly to the theory of naturalistic evolution—it gives them an alternative to believing in a Creator God. God exists and ultimately everyone knows that He exists. The very fact that some attempt so aggressively to disprove His existence is in fact an argument for His existence.
In the end, God’s existence must be accepted by faith (Hebrews 11:6). Faith in God is not a blind leap into the dark; it is safe step into a well-lit room where the vast majority of people are already standing.
Question: "Why does God allow natural disasters, i.e. earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis?"
Answer:
Why does God allow earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes, tsunamis, typhoons, cyclones, mudslides, and other natural disasters? Tragedies such as the 2004 tsunami in Asia, Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the 2008 cyclone in Myanmar, and the 2010 earthquake in Haiti cause many people to question God’s goodness. It is distressing that natural disasters are often termed “acts of God” while no “credit” is given to God for years, decades, or even centuries of peaceful weather. God created the whole universe and the laws of nature (Genesis 1:1). Most natural disasters are a result of these laws at work. Hurricanes, typhoons, and tornados are the results of divergent weather patterns colliding. Earthquakes are the result of the earth’s plate structure shifting. A tsunami is caused by an underwater earthquake.The Bible proclaims that Jesus Christ holds all of nature together (Colossians 1:16-17). Could God prevent natural disasters? Absolutely! Does God sometimes influence the weather? Yes, as we see in Deuteronomy 11:17 and James 5:17. Numbers 16:30-34 shows us that God sometimes causes natural disasters as a judgment against sin. The book of Revelation describes many events which could definitely be described as natural disasters (Revelation chapters 6, 8, and 16). Is every natural disaster a punishment from God? Absolutely not.

As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change." (Bhadgavad-Gita, Chapter 2,Text 13)Srila Prabhupada explains: In the modern age, people are so uneducated that they cannot understand the body is changing at every moment and that the ultimate change is called death. In this life one may be a king, and in the next life one may be a dog, according to karma. The spirit soul is in deep slumber caused by the force of material nature. He is put into one type of condition and again changed into another type. Without self-realization and knowledge, conditional life continues, and one falsely claims himself a king, a cat, or a dog. These are simply transformations brought about by the supreme arrangements.
The Myths of Science:
Marcelo Gleiser, brazilian-born physics professor at Dartmouth College (U.S.), author of The Dancing Universe: From Creation Myths to the Big Bang (Plume, 1998)
Myth, religion and science have more often than not proved inseparable in addressing the eternal imponderable: why something rather than nothing?Since the dawn of civilization, humankind has marvelled at the skies and at Nature’s myriad creations. This sense of wonder was deeply interwoven with a sense of fear: Nature’s dual role as creator and destroyer has puzzled and polarized our perceptions of the cosmos. As a way of establishing a degree of control over the apparent unpredictability of natural phenomena, gods were held responsible for these conflicting manifestations. In short, Nature was deified.The question of why there is something rather than nothing was a crucial part of this process.
All cultures have attempted to provide an answer to the mystery of creation, and our modern scientific tradition is no exception. Perhaps more surprisingly, there is an intriguing correspondence between answers suggested by mythic narratives and those suggested by scientific research. The crucial difference, of course, is that the scientific process is capable of weeding out explanations which do not measure up to observations, while those based on myth are held true on the basis of faith alone.
To understand Nature was to understand God, or, in an oft-quoted aphorism, to understand the mind of God. Religion does not exist to cover the holes of our scientific knowledge, but as a driving force behind scientific inspiration. Through our search for knowledge we uncover our true nature, fuelled by the same sense of mystery which filled our ancestors with awe.
DOOMSDAY- "THE ARMAGEDDON"
We have explained this last age (Kaliyuga) as the iron or dark age, termed so because of civilization's complete fall from righteousness (Vedic Hindu), the cause of constant decay (pain and misery). As a result of it, this age will experience a continuous spread of retrogression and decadence. . The Vedic texts of India tells us that we are now in the era of the Kali Yuga, the dark ages of history, lasting 432,000 human years.Accordingly, in earlier times before this age commenced, 5000 years ago, India and some other more divine nations had a more astral and advanced civilisation, and hence why most civilisations popped up around 5000 – 10,000 years ago, so far as physical ruins go.
According to the ages, so technology in Hindu texts is described thus:
Satya Yuga (Golden Age): Siddhis, or mystical powers
Treta Yuga (Atomic Age): Mantras or sacred chants and hymns
Dwarpara Yuga (Bronze Age): Yajnas or sacrificial magic
Kali Yuga (Iron Age): Karaka or artificial methods as yantra (machines).Kali Yuga is ruled by Rahu and represents darkness, ignorance and materialism (Vritra and Svarbhanu)
We should also note that higher beings are inter-dimensional – meaning they can assume a physical form in our most physical dimension, and then retreat back into their more subtle astral and hence ‘invisible’ dimensions. Gods, demons, ghosts etc., now called ‘Aliens’ as they are alien to our physical senses, are such groups.The Four ages correspond to beings as Devas (Gods, Satya), Rishis (Seers, Treta), Manavas, (Humans, Dwarpara) and Asuras (Demons, Kali Yuga). Most noteworthy, is that this age is one of Nagas (serpent-beings), since Rahu who represents the spirit of Kali, is the serpent-being, and Kali himself relates to the Aslesha-nakshatra or constellation of the serpent, and it’s vicious venom.Hence, as the ages move on, so also under the subtle influence of the planets, do physical tendencies and characteristics occur amongst various species, both physical and astral, that influence them. Nagas and Rahu, being asuric or demonic in Kali Yuga, thus create a race of evil-minded and wicked atheistic humans, born in darkness or ignorance.

THE SECRET OF ALIEN INVASIONS AND VISITATIONS :
Today, we are in the dark as to the reason why mysterious beings with mystical powers appear, in physical form on their crafts we call ‘Unidentified Flying Objects’ (UFOs), and have built much hysteria surrounding such phenomena.Looking at the Eastern Texts and the world’s oldest religion of the Vedas, we find this present age is Kali-Yuga, a dark age governed by dark planets, such as Rahu (Uranus) and Shani (Saturn), and visitations by demonic beings of various class, are said to wreck havoc in this age, take human form, corrupt humanity and plunge them into an age of ignorance, atheism and darkness.This all began before 3102BCE, the start of Kali Yuga when Krishna died, and marked a higher era. Even then, demons (danavas) were being born as humans, such as the Kururavas described in Mahabharata. The Gods (devas) descended in human form and were of natural birth – but the Kururavas and their leader Duryodhana, were clones, and were created from a single embryo divided into one hundred lots. When these grew in large jars, they became alive, and the demons possessed the bodies and animated these one hundred artificial bodies, and wrecked havoc on the earth.We hence understand why many ‘Alien’ species wish to promote cloning and also physical technology, rather than subtle – which they themselves employ, as it steers humanity away from the Devic or godly influences, and hence creating a more destructive age and civilisation for Mankind.These ‘Aliens’ and their UFOs are hence what the ancients described in detail, and knew well, the various classes of demons and their Vimanas or Aerial Ships. Ancient texts in India describe demonic civilisation on Earth and Human Kings and Gods that possessed such Crafts, which came from Planet Venus, through the great Architect of the Demons, Asuramaya.Such beings are often physical or sub-astral, but have may mystic powers, which enables them to assume more subtle forms and use subtle powers of clairvoyance, telepathy and also with such means, power their crafts, which sometimes employ various crystal and other power technologies, and alchemical engines. Their metals are empowered with various qualities also, as we learn from texts as Vimana Shastra and Shilpa Shastra treatise, which came from the Gods to Humanity, and also knew these secrets, we have lost today, through our break with divinity, spiritualism and creation of atheism, by the Asuric or demonic beings.
Vedas : Upanishad
The Chandogya Upanishad states that the Asuras (demons) have a more physical and material civilisation and the Devas have a more inner and astral civilisation. However, in this present age, which is of the Asuras, it is thus mainly physical and material.As it happened 6000 years ago, a tremendous castastrophy wiped out most of civilization leaving pockets of inhabitants in nomadic conditions to fend for themselves. It took centuries for nature to repair itself and over 3000 years to bring us to our present state. And we are now again at that point (global warming, crime diseases, wars, nuclear weapons, etc.) due to neglect and wanton disregard for true religion, where such a castastrophy is imminent.The storing of seeds is just a waste of money, time and labour, for when such a castastrophy strikes again we will again be reduced to the primitive state, separating the rest of the world from the source knowledge again. There won't be anyone left among those (western civilization) who are planning this event intelligent enough to find the vault muchless retrieving the seeds. The time, effort and money can be better spent to educate people to know the truth and thereby saving the soul instead.Just keep in mind that the seeds we now have, did not come from any "doomsday vault" of an extinct civilization but refurbished by nature in a slow and gradual way.
SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY IN THE ANCIENT EAST :
Evolution Theory:The ancient Hindus appear to have known about Darwin’s theory of evolution – as its self-evident in their Dashavatara or ‘Ten incarnations’ of the God Vishnu, through history.They start with Matsya (Fish), and next came the Tortoise (Kurma) – the amphibian. The next avatar is the Boar (Varaha) - symbolising the first Mammal. The next is Narasimha (Man-lion) – the being in between the humanoid and the mammal. Next comes Vamana (dwarf) – the primal short man, and then Parashurama (man with an axe) – representing the first hunter-gatherers creating the first tools. After him comes Rama – who represents the first King, and hence society. Krishna is the next – who is the philosopher and Yogi, and then comes Buddha – who is a more refined philosopher, advocating non-violence and an atheistic doctrine. The next will be Kalki – who is said to restore the Vedas (texts of wisdom) and righteousness – symbolizing the scientific geniuses.

Asuric Civilization :
Although lost in India, for safe-keeping in this age – some examples of crafts from this text are to be found in the other Asuric Civilisations on Earth, that were derived from the Vedic peoples, or based on the Vedas (similar, to how cultures of Indonesia, Bali, Thailand,Cambodia etc.).For example, ancient Egypt – a nation of Asura-beings and humanoid peoples of the same - as India was a nation of Deva-beings – appears to have had physical technologies of flying machines resembling airplanes of today, but much more advanced. They would have derived this knowledge from the Yavana tribes of Western India around Gandhara, who were experts in Astrology and Flying technology, as also from the asuric astral beings as Maya Danava (Imenhotep). Southern India also employed such technologies, and still reveres Maya as their patron – but, because S. India was influenced by Devic cultures, much of this was lost, as also from floods there as Bhagavata states with the Manu, Satyavrata, or Vivasvan, our present.However, some of these Asuras set up a colony in Egypt to preserve this wisdom, and S. India also co-existed with this culture, for some time, before being Deva-influenced again.Hence, ancient Egypt and parts of South Indian cultures, Bali Empire as well Angkor-Cambodia, give a glimpse into the kinds of practices, civilisations and types one finds in the more astral Asuric beings throughout the universe, and their powers. Other controls have been found in Turkestan, which also formed part of the Uttara-Kuru region of the Vedas and land of Gods (where they landed on Earth).
The Himalayas are a “Forcefield” region like Stargate for astral beings, of both Divine and Demonic types, as the region beings first came to Earth into – and hence why many sightings of such crafts are there and tales of unusual beings reside there. It is also a link with the astral dimensions, both higher and lower.India, however, being a Deva-based Civilisation, displays marvels with the ancient Shilpa Shastra cities of the Gods, there in Western India, along the banks of the Saraswati, where the Rishis and Gods aided the Manavas to set-up Divine-influenced cities like those of the Gods. The neo-pictographic and old-Brahmi script used, was the same as employed by the Gods themselves. The less-advanced asura-beings use Brahmi-forms which are easier to understand and also do not use pictographic metaphors like those of the Gods. Devanagari is a Kali-Yugic human design that has stemmed from it.
Big Bang Theory:
The Big Bang theory is mentioned as early as the Rig Veda, where, in Mandala X – the Cosmos and the ‘Golden Egg’ or the Sun, is born from the Cosmic Void – often called as Asat (Non-being) – also meaning ‘Non-wisdom’ or Chaos.The highest force in Hinduism from Vedic Hindu times is called as nothingness (neti neti – not this, nor that). It is also referred to as darkness and in Hinduism and Buddhism as sunyata (void). The concept of Zero came to us from the Hindus from this concept – as did their numeral system – which we still employ today over the cumbersome Roman system.The Great Rig Vedic hymn (X.129), dating to before 3000 BCE, states in the beginning of creation there was neither being nor non-being, only darkness and no sky, water etc. From the cosmic void was born heat, and from heat desire and from desire came the spirit. This was before even the Gods, and it is said the wise Seers seek to unite with the formless void beyond, as the primal reality (as mentioned above). This is also the basis of Buddhism and it’s atheistic tones.Another hymn (X.72) states that the Lord of Hymns created the Gods and creation from a cosmic ‘blast’ and hence created existence from non-existence. From productive power were the regions born etc.
