Concept of Multiverse Explained long before..!! Does it ring any bells? #Innerpeace
When we hear a word "Multiverse", we are sunk into a ocean of imaginations trying to understand the depth of it. Which is still a mystery to modern scientists. So here is just an effort to compare the modern day science to ancient science which was left by our sages. I would like to present a story which was in Bhagavata Purana, which is one of the Hindu Puranas, that illustrates the concept of multiverse in a very simple way with some devotion to the lord of the lords.
The story goes way before Alexander the Great. Just around 3227 BC which was the time of Lord Krishna Incarnation on earth. He was a playful kid with some extraordinary powers. His deeds are so mysterious that even the Lord Brahma, the Creator, was unaware of the incarnation of the supreme god head that took place on earth. Once the Lord Brahma wishes to come to earth just to check on things that are happening and comes to know of the kid towards whom everybody's love is pure and they were all attracted to the transcendental form of the god and are all so happy to be under the protection of his. Brahma gets very confused and does not understand who the kid is, so in ego he decides to test the kid and arranges a plan to kidnap all his friends and keep them hidden.
The Kid, Being the ultimate source of knowledge, comes to know of the things Lord Brahma did and decides to teach him a lesson. The kid creates all his kidnapped friends from his transcendental body and he plays with them as usual daily. Lord Brahma decides to visit the Kid to check how the people still keeping hope on him and he was stumbled upon seeing nothing has been changed, everything is the same as before. While Lord Brahma was in confused state, He sees hundred thousands of other Brahmas flying towards the kid and giving their respect to the Lord. Upon seeing this, Lord Brahma understands what has happened till now and goes to Lord Krishna to apologize.
Lord Krishna reveals the ultimate truth to Brahma that he had come under the influence of ego and he had to break it to him by showing other innumerable Brahmas who are looking after other universes are obliged to serve Lord Krishna, who is the ultimate truth of all. Lord Krishna happily blesses them all and sends them to their abode. So there we know about the multiverse :D.

Wonderful story I am going to subscribe to you so that I can keep up with Hindu mythology. There are multiverses and we just happen to live in one of them.
Thanks for the support bro.. I will make sure to keep up the good work.. @robkim55
Excellent post. Yes .... many of the New "Scientific Breakthroughs" have often been discovered thousands and thousands of years ago. Up-Voted, Resteemed, and Followed.
Thanks for your support bro.. @offgridlife .. there are many things that the ancient books reveal of this world.. just need to study more. :D
I have learned a lot about the universe from reading the very short Isha Upanishad.
Yeah.. I would suggest to read Bhagavat purana,, which has more interesting details.
