Will this world end?
We have been listening to innumerable predictions, incidents, and dates about the end of the world. Scientists, however, have not yet been able to scientifically prove the creation or destruction of the world.
However, when God Himself tells us the truth, we usually do not need any more proofs. This is because your experience is your own. For example, someone might tell you that the climate is hot outside your office, but you will believe it only when you actually experiment by going out and experiencing that heat. Then, you do not need anybody else to tell/prove to you that the climate is hot outside. Let us get some background foundation information before coming to the actual question, 'Will this world end?'
Whenever a building develops cracks, the owner/builder of the building sends his engineers to work on it and repair the problems for the time being. When the building reaches a stage when patch-work is no longer possible, the builder himself needs to interfere and demolish the building completely and re-construct it afresh. In the meanwhile, he gives the residents a temporary place to stay, and then offers them a newer building with much more features, amenities, space, and facilities. This is exactly the current state of the world, when the values of truthfulness, love, peace, and harmony are almost completely no more. Hence God has to come to re-establish the world. In fact, God has already come to intervene and re-construct the world.
Remember the words, "Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya, Glanirva Bhavati Bharata..."? They simply mean that when there will be a "Glaani" i.e. extreme or too much of divisions/discrimination of the religions, or when the righteousness decays in the world, God comes down on the Earth and re-establish the religion of truth, love, purity, humanity, and Godliness. Look anywhere, and you will realize that there is truly a Glaani of everything around. Greed is making humans kill each other, Sex-lust is developing hatred in people, Anger is making humans break relationships and hurt others, Ego is making people get addicted to untoward things. You, me, and everyone is facing this today. Open any newspaper, or television channel, everything is reaching its extreme at a very fast rate.
Was Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya said by Krishna?
These words ("Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya...") were said by God, Shiv, Supreme Soul (whom we call Light, Parmatma, Allah, and with so many other names) through the mouth of Krishna, but it is misconceived that Krishna spoke them by himself.
How is science related to these words?
If this is too heavy for you to understand, you can skip this paragraph and contact me for understanding it better, but please do try reading it. "Yada Yada Hi Dharmasya..." matches with the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Going back to Engineering, Entropy is defined as follows, "When given a system whose exact description is not precisely known, the entropy is defined as the amount of information needed to exactly specify the state of the system, given what we know about the system." i.e. in non-engineering words, Entropy is the gap (or bridge) between the chaotic (indefinable) state of a system and the ordered (definable) state of the system. The system being referred to here, is a closed system i.e. a system that is isolated from its surroundings, in which the closure is perfect. Thermodynamics also says that the degree of closure varies with every system, and a closed system can only exchange energy, but not matter.
The second law of thermodynamics simply states two basic facts, firstly, that the nature is irreversible and secondly, that in order to change the state of a system from non-equilibrium to equilibrium, there is a energy loss, and this can only be achieved by an external agent. Example, Heat does not flow from cold to hot (without work input) i.e. in a refrigerator, other way round, heat flows from cold to hot only when aided by an external agent (i.e. the compressor).
Let us map the above engineering terms to the world, at a broader level. This world is a Closed system, because there are fixed number of souls that descend on this earth. Thus, although the population of the world is continuously increasing, there will be a point in time when all the souls have descended on the earth from the Soul World, and then the population of the world will begin to decrease. There will be a point when the last soul comes onto this earth before the transformation of the Iron Age to Golden Age begins. God is that external force who has already intervened this chaotic system, and is converting this chaotic state of the souls to an ordered state in a subtle way.
Root Cause of Problems
If we realize, the mind (or the soul) is the root cause behind all the chaos in this world today, and God addresses the root cause. He does not teach us the ways to behave, the ways to talk, walk, or mannerisms, because these are external, temporary, and superficial teachings. We read so many books on positive thinking, but do we change? Seldom!
If God has come down, then why does He not create magic?
God always addresses the root cause. He transforms the mind from the most impure state (Tamo-pradhan) to the most pure state (Sato-pradhan) and this is how He will re-build the empire of purity, peace, love, and happiness that will reign the world to come. God does not perform any magic to transform this, because the creators of chaos can only destroy it. There are some universal laws of nature, which need to be followed. We are responsible for creating the problems for ourselves, and we are the only ones who will repay or solve them. He has completely left the choice to us. It is like we should not complain to Him that we were happy in our own ways of being, why did you change us with your magic. Hence, God does not make any miracles to change the world to a peaceful place. The world was once peaceful. It is us who have generated chaos in it, and it is us who will re-generate peace in it. He tells us the way to change ourselves. The society and nature will automatically change and transform once we change. God's role is to empower us, to uplift us with his Love, Peace, Purity, Bliss, Power, and most importantly, Knowledge. Once we acquire these virtues completely, the world transformation will happen automatically.
Scientists say that this is the beginning of Kalyug and there are lakhs of years for the world to end. Think about it. Do you really think that world can go on like this forever. It is already predicted that Global Warming will cause the water level to rise to such an extent that if all the ice in the Artic and Antartic regions melts, water can cover the earth 21 times as compared to today.
So, how will the transformation happen?
Here you go. Transformation is a combination of Destruction and Recreation. Let us talk about recreation first.
All the souls who have this knowledge and connect to God to receive power from Him and purify themselves will take birth in the Satyug will be the corporeal deities ruling the Satyug. The Recreation of the souls is already in progress. Since Satyug has 100% pure souls, so only those, who reach the stage of 100% purity and soul-consciousness in this SangamYug, will come back in the Satyug. It is like preparing for an entrance exam. However, the difference is that WE ALL can pass this exam, there is no cut off. It is completely our choice and wish to study for the exam or not.
As far as the destruction is concerned, God (Shiv [Baba]) tells us that it will happen in three ways,(i) Nuclear Wars, (ii) Civil Wars, (iii) Environmental Hazards.
Nuclear Wars will happen in countries like USA, Russia and the rest that will cause masses of souls to leave their body and return to the Soul World, after countries and huge landmasses are destroyed. Nuclear War that will emit harmful and toxic chemicals will cause the spread of pollutants on a large scale, causing massive human and animal deaths due to Air/Water/Food Pollution. Nuclear War will not affect India (and the Asian sub-continent).
Civil Wars will happen in this area, again causing masses of souls to leave their body and return to the Soul World. After all this destruction, the Environmental Imbalance due to Global Warming will cause water level to rise to the extent that all these dead remnants of human bodies will be cleaned up by water. Earthquakes and Tsunamis will cause continents to shift and submerge in water. The Asian Sub-continent (containing India) was never submerged under water, and will never be. We know (and it has been scientifically proved) that all the rest of the continents have emerged out of water just in the last 500-600 years. Thus, India (much larger in area than that in the current map) will remain. Just as the last soul leaves the earth (Kalyug), the establishment of the Satyug will have already begun simultaneously. Thus, the beautiful, pure Satyug will be established, which will continue the cycle. God is never present during the transformation of any other age to any other age. Since God is present during this Transformation from this Yug to the new one, the resulting Yug will be the most beautiful one amongst the four. So, isn't this a good news? Those who have this knowledge right from now and are preparing for it will not panic or be in pain, but will understand that this is not destruction, but a transformation and a beautiful world awaits us in the future. More important to understand is that preparation is not external. No matter what precautions everybody (including the Government) will take to save lives, everyone has to go back to the Soul World. All the preparation is within us (i.e. within the soul) to purify and watch this world as a detached observer and be in the awareness that it is just rehabilitation. Practicing such a detachment takes time and efforts, so we need to start NOW. Thus, this world was never created, and neither will it ever be destroyed. This cycle goes on eternally.
This makes it necessary for us to understand, experiment, and experience soul-consciousness. It is necessary for us to connect to God. Soul, the conscient energy, always exists. So, "you" never die. You just leave the body. In body-consciousness, we have the fear of death, in soul-consciousness, we don't. But this needs practice. Thus, those who have this knowledge will understand, experiment, and experience soul-consciousness, and only such souls will be able to cross the world transformation with much ease. So, there is nothing to panic about or get scared. Masses will turn to God when they start seeing this, but it will be already too late, and they will have no time to connect to God. God is always ready for us, but it is we who are given the choice of connecting with Him or not. He's like a Transmitter, continuously sending the signals. We, the receivers, have the choice of catching those signals or ignoring them.
Why does God not reveal the destruction or transformation date?
Transformation is not magical or a one-day process. It is gradual and happens over a period of small time. If you don't change before time, time will force you to change. Thus, creating fear in our minds will not stop the future incidents. Instead of focusing on fear of loss (of the possessions and body), let us focus on the beautiful future (the new building) that awaits us. Let us first beautify our current life by connecting to God, whom we always wanted to meet. At the end of the day, we want nothing else, but happiness, and we have this beautiful opportunity to get it.
God never reveals the date for any such incidents, though there are serious predictions about 2012, and so on. Remember, science has not been able to prove it as yet. Everything will begin soon, however, let us not wait for destruction to start happening. God wants us to begin preparation (which is nothing but connecting with Him through meditation) from TODAY, and the rest will seem to be trivial. It is very beautifully said, "Everybody wants to go to Heaven, but nobody wants to die." However, once you understand who you are, you realize that you can never die, you just change your body. Once you understand that Heaven is established right here, on earth, you are okay with the cleansing that happens. During school exams, the way we ask for a supplement just before our main answer sheet fills, or the way we fill petrol in our vehicle a little before it empties, it is the need of the hour to prepare beforehand.
However, when God Himself tells us the truth, we usually do not need any more proofs. This is because your experience is your own. For example, someone might tell you that the climate is hot outside your office, but you will believe it only when you actually experiment by going out and experiencing that heat.
