VISIT
TO ANDROMEDA
Near the Star Uttarabhadra, there is a huge galaxy.
In this galaxy, there is a Solar System and this Solar System contains an Earth
like ours, where human life is existing. This Earth is occupied by the Sanaka
Sanandana Rishis and their workers. Here, they manufacture the Manomaya Koshas
and send them to Brahma.
In the year 1974, Satya Yuga commenced, on April 14th.
The Manomaya Koshas given to the descending souls were found to be out of date
and a new batch of Manomaya Koshas from that date onwards, were required at
Brahma Loka. Markendeya Maharishi, happened to pass through Brahma Loka, when
Lord Brahma and his Manager of Manovati Nagara, informed Markendeya Maharishi
to send information to Sanaka Sanandana Maharishis, so that they could despatch
Manomaya Koshas without delay, immediately.
As usual when the Worker met Markendeya Maharishi,
the Rishi gives the worker the special work of going over to the place where
the Manomaya Koshas for the Satya Yuga are manufactured. The worker instantly
leaves in the direction of the Galaxy Andromeda. He finds it infinitely vast
and very confusing. With some difficulty, a particular Solar System was spotted
out. After that, he was able to see the Earth inside the Solar System and the
Worker quickly rushes towards the Earth. As he passes through the atmosphere of
that Earth, the worker feels that he has become a little heavy and soon he notices
that he has now acquired a physical body and the gravitation of that Earth
pulls him down and with a little impact, he lands on that Earth, in a particular
place and looks about himself- his body looks different- a replica of his
astral form, he is amazed at this.
As he proceeded further, he finds a huge arch,
fully carved out with figures. On either side of this arch, he notices green
pastures with plenty of vegetation, etc. He finds three roads emerging out from
the arch and does not know which one to take. As he was thinking which road he
had to take, he hears a voice calling out to him. Looking for the direction of
the voice, he observes that a carved image of the watchman from the arch was addressing
him. The image said –“This world is different from yours. There is a lot of
discipline, no insect, fly or animal can misbehave. Birds and flies do not peck
at corn etc. They have a place to eat their food. Similarly everything is well
arranged, here no pain is caused to anyone. You take the road on your right,
proceed on it, do not pluck any fruit, if you do so, the plants and trees will
strike you back, be careful”.
As the worker proceeded on the path, he finds on
both sides of the path, wonderful trees with fruits which were very tempting,
he plucked out one fruit from a tree and all other trees quickly started
throwing fruits at him. The worker, having acquired a physical body, felt
hungry. Soon, he noticed a small hut like dwelling place wherein an old woman
was staying. The worker asks the old lady for some food to eat. She looked
closely at the worker and said- You must be a stranger here, today no one eats
here, we eat once a week, so you are an outsider. She gives some food to the
Worker and once the Worker consumes it, he feels satisfied, hunger gone.
After some distance, he crosses a valley and enters
a city which was between two hills. He observes there, all kinds of human
beings, he quickly enters a main building and is received with great
hospitality by the people inside. He was taken into the presence of Sanaka
Sanandana Maharishis and is introduced to them. The worker informs the Sanaka
Sanandana Maharishis about the purpose of his visit.
The worker asked as to why he had acquired a
physical body at that Earth? Sanaka Sanandana Maharishis replied- There are
many secrets here and so, any astral body passing through the Earth’s
atmosphere gets a physical body and they get exposed. Here people are born at
age 16 and they die at age 60, in a special and different way unlike death at
Bhuloka.
Sanaka Sanandana Maharishis take the worker to a
main hall, where two Homa Kundas are observed and a special liquid was poured into
the Kundas when red hot two globes of light emerge, explode and the Manomaya
Koshas are manufactured which looks something like polythene bags.
In order to return to Markendeya Maharishi, the
worker is then directed to pass through a cave upon a huge hill, find an
opening on the right side of the cave, find a huge lake with a bridge in the
center of the lake, and wait there. The worker proceeds, reaches this cave
after coming across slippery boulders, slips down many times and finally enters
the right said of the cave to discover a lake and a bridge at its center, with
lotuses, and waits as instructed.
As the worker waits, it was soon sunrise time there
and all people on that Earth got ready to worship Lord Suryanarayana. The
worker addresses Lord Suryanarayana and requests Him to enable the worker to
leave Andromeda. Lord Suryanarayana told the worker- Get Ready, I shall burn
your physical body soon and you must leave the atmosphere of this Earth quickly,
before I leave!
This, the worker did, he meets Markendeya Maharishi
and reports his work.
The End.
