The Parallel World

Ramesh & his teammates were space explorer scientists. They were always busy in understanding the secrets of outer space & recording crucial findings all the time. Those crucible findings helped them a lot in exploring the space is much better way. Once, in the laboratory, Ramesh was doing some research to find out if there is some life on another planet or not. Suddenly his friend Mohan came near him & enquired what he was doing.

Ramesh said, "Mohan, I am 100% sure there is life on other planets also. It has been taught to us since childhood that human life exists only on earth. But I don't believe this theory. Definitely there is a parallel universe like we are having, with same people, animal & plant species as we are having. 

See my computer. I was just studying that & I have found one such planet also."

Ramesh clicked on a picture of a planet & he was surprised to see the place. It was ancient period when Kings & Queens lived, just like ancient Indian days. He said, "This is amazing. Without wasting time, let us go over there." And they moved their spacecraft toward that planet. After traveling much distance, finally they were about to enter the planet." Fasten your seatbelts. We are approaching the planet. All hurdles cleared." The spacecraft moved towards the planet at a very fast pace.

As the spacecraft reached the ground of that planet, Ramesh & his team was surprised to see the scene. It was the ancient period similar to Mahabharata & Ramayana. Tall palaces, chariots, war weapons, ancient jewelry & beautifully crafted temples & monuments. They were exploring the place when few people stopped them with sward, arrested them & took them to King. Reaching king's palace, the soldier said, "Maharaja, I saw these outsiders in the market. They look very different from us. Just look & their dress, hairstyle & attitude. Absolutely unsystematic. They may be enemies Maharaj."

The king looked towards us seriously. His height & physique was exceptional. Tall handsome man, with muscles like a body builder. Even the height of courtiers was also similar to him. We had never seen such tall people in our lives. We were looking for dwarf in from of him. He said to us, "We are not going to harm you. Just tell us who are you, why you look so different & why you came to my kingdom?"

Listening to the king, Ramesh was very happy as if he was waiting for this question only. He said, "Maharaj ki Jai Ho. Maharaj we are from a different planet. The name of our planet is Earth. People on our planet often have doubt regarding existence of Parallel Universe but today we proved that Parallel Universe exists. You, your city & your court exactly looks like our ancient Historical Kings & Queens". Ramesh opened his laptop & showing it to the king, started displaying images of Mahabharata, Ramayana & Chandragupt period. The king was surprised to see that. "These people are just like us. Same place, same dresses, same palaces, everything is same. It looks so beautiful. What is the name of your planet?" Ramesh said, "Sir it's Earth. 5,000 light years away from here. But I am showing ancient Indian pictures. Let me show you modern Indian pictures of today's time." Ramesh opened the images of tall concrete buildings, airplanes, corporate companies & shopping malls. He said to the king, "Sir, we are more advanced now." Listening to him the king started laughing, "Advanced, Ha, Ha, Ha! My dear, come with me. I will show you who is advanced."

The king took Ramesh & his friends to a place where ships were getting manufactured. The king said, "This is my ship factory. Everything is taken care of in terms of authenticity, Beauty & engineering." It was not a normal sized ship. Tall structure, decorated with painting & wooden carvings. Just adjacent to it was a tall aircraft. It was not like modern aircraft. An eagle shaped structure, with enough space in centre. Below the eagle's head, there was navigation panel to control the aircraft. Not only this, but there was also a big dining hall, decorated with fruits, rest rooms, sports arena where people were playing polo on the back of ancient horses & much more. The ship looked like a complete city. Surprisingly I asked the king, "Sir, can you please show us other beautiful places. Your city is so grand." The king said, "Why not, you are our guests. Athiti devo bhava." Ramesh was shocked listening Sanskrit from him.

Next, he took Ramesh & his friends to a library. It was full of big size books. But they were visual books. But they were not for reading. As we open up the books, story on each page came live & we could see various characters performing their roles as mentioned on a particular page of the book. Absolutely amazing & beautiful. Reading further, Ramesh saw green pastures with a beautiful Sunshine. A boy was coming ahead riding on horse, wearing clothes like a prince. As he came near, his face because more visible.

Seeing his face, they were fully shocked. It was Ramesh. Wearing attire of a prince, sward in his hand & a crown of diamond over his head. Very shockingly he asked the king, "Sir what am I doing here"? The king smiled & said, "It is not you. It is the prince of Magadha, Chandragupt Maurya." Ramesh was surprised to hear that. "Am I the reincarnation of Great Magadha King Chandragupta Maurya, who lived many years ago on my planet", he thought. He was very happy to know that our glorious past, about which we study in books, he was also a part of it. 

It was an amazing journey. Ramesh was actually feeling proud & honored. But one question was consistently striking his mind. Maybe we still know very less about of ancient past & glorious history. "How a person with same face can be on another planet?", Ramesh asked himself. After enjoying enough on that planet, Ramesh & his team took permission from the king for returning to Earth. The king happily have them permission & departed them with many gifts. 

Ramesh & friends sat on their spacecraft & returned to Earth. Next morning Ramesh wakes up as usual & started watching some news channel. It was a different kind of news. Scientist have discovered a vast sea in space. Learned scholars were predicting that it is the same sea where Hiranyaksha threw earth & Lord Vishnu put the earth back in its orbit by taking, "Varah Avatar". 

Listening to the news Ramesh was actually feeling proud of his ancient culture & especially being an Indian. It was the biggest adventure that brought him closer to his roots.
