The Wheel Of Time Turns (Part 1) 

Remember the sweet bed time stories of your childhood which were narrated to you by your grandmother which got you off to sleep, her soft hands on your forehead and on your closed eyes. What did the story say to you? What was the message it conveyed? What was so nice about the story that you even saw the story in your mind’s eye when you slept i.e. in your dreams, which you used to call childishly – sweet dreams? The dream was a world full of happiness like Alice In Wonderland that you must have read and fantasized about many a times as a child. But Alice’s land of wonder was an imagination of its author, which brought fun in many a children’s lives. 

God, who is the author of the world creation i.e. the One who has seen the wheel of time turn right from eternity and who is the divine eye which resides in the soul world up above all the galaxies of our universe and sees the world and has in Himself recorded the good as well as the negative events of the world, once wondered to Himself that what makes me God in this complete universe and what differentiates me from the humans – this particular characteristic – He knows the accurate history and geography of the world, not what we read in story books and history books but the correct chain of events as they happened without a single mistake. Mistakes did occur when history was recorded due to the limitations of the methods used in recording the history and the methods used in calculating the ages of artifacts that were found down the history lane at different points of time. Mistakes kept getting multiplied as they rode over assumptions and errors of the past. Even Darwin’s theory of evolution had its share of false beliefs on which the theory was based. The world built on Darwin’s theory to create further theories, not realizing that even Darwin, in his last days had expressed doubts regarding the evolution theory. His theory questioned the role of God as the creator and stated that man had evolved from apes. Also the Big Bang theory assumed that nothing existed before the universe was created i.e. there was no space, no matter, no energy and no time before the universe was created, which is not possible. Both these theories were challenged by many other scientists and by religion itself, but their theories were not widely accepted which left us with many incorrect beliefs that we continue to carry.
