Yes – is the answer from the Hindu scriptures! To the most coveted
question especially from the modern cosmo-biologists – ‘are there aliens?’
But, the Hindu scriptures
are also claiming that there is - NO - other life in ‘our’ cosmos, the cosmos
we live in apart from the Earth's. But, extraterrestrial intelligent
life is indeed present somewhere else, in some other universe but, NOT in ‘our
universe’.
The Hindu scriptures
claim that there are countless universes in the endless creation and the
universe we live is just a tiny part in the endless vastness. This view is
closer to the modern cosmological – ‘multi-verse’ concept. According to the modern
cosmology there are innumerable universes away from ours. The modern
cosmological view is that - like air bubbles [with different sizes] in the soap
waters – universes are present in some infinite continuum and the universe [all
the stars and galaxies put together] we live in is just a small bubble - just a
part of that infinite whole.
The scriptures also say
that – these different universes are with different properties and each one is
different but, of course it is probable that some of them might have some
resemblances. This is in accordance with the modern cosmological view that –
different universes in the multiple universes could have different dimensions
and etc. The Hindu scriptures also make a reference to these different
dimensions of the other universes apart from saying that our universe has
4-dimensions. In the modern science, in his - ‘general theory’ of relativity
Albert Einstein has propagated the same concept.
There are references to
the existences to the multiple universes in the ancient Hindu scripture the
‘Bramhanda Purana’ and other books. A hymn {akilaanda koti bramhanda
naayaki} on the goddess “Durga” – claims that the ‘goddess’ is
the owner of the billions and billions of universes.
Now coming to the point
on the aliens – the Hinduism says – there are intelligent beings in some of
these universes and some of them are far more advanced than we are – and more
matured and intelligible than the people of the Earth.
The Hindu scripture
mention the name of some of the Universes that are close to our universe or in
other words ‘our cluster’ of universes, that are just like the galactic
clusters. Our cluster of ‘universes’ – comprises of 14 universes that has
harbored life and the name of our universe according to the ancient Hindu
scriptures is “Bhooloka”- it mean the – ‘Universe of the Earth’, the “universe
harboring the Earth”. The Hindu scripture mention the names of these 14 –
universes too and it has been also mentioned that in the past – some of these
beings from different universes used to visit the other universes too and there
are many citations on this type of travels.
{Ancient Indians were so
advanced in sciences that they were capable of traveling to other universes
too but, we are unable to reach the nearby by star…and we boast of our
technologies ..!}
According to Hinduism –
the Earth is the only inhabitable place in ‘this’ universe and there are no
other places or planets in ‘this’ universe with any form of ‘life’.
