A typical historical research in order to explore the realistic matter - especially under the shadow of Hindu Religion


Abstract

It has been saying that a GOD is going to be born if one finds a god - shaped old stone or any other solid object which is similar to what we used to see about the shape of the GOD in temples. Do you really believe it? If you believe on, then what are the hypothesis behind it? Otherwise, how do you convince the people those who are prone towards the birth of another GOD in their society by saying that this is actually is not the GOD? Further, it is usual to most of the people to go behind worshiping the stones. Is not this a propaganda? Do you think that the stone is due to buried architecture from the ancient times? If so, why do not we introduce the basic building block to support some hypothetical issues and some research procedures to carry out this mysterious birth of the GOD, especially in NEPAL. It is evident to everyone in Nepal that many such buried architectures are invented in the shape of so called GOD.

No matter about people believe on GOD but on the other hand making propaganda about the birth of the GOD via buried stone for example, is some times having no worth and no assumptions to convince people. People even say, it is due to the human's conservative nature. Does it really strike one's mind?

1. Introduction

Factually speaking, we must believe on GOD in order to maintain our discipline to run the society - this is the basic background. For example, dealing human as a friend, sister, brother, wife, husband, father and mother... and so on is all due to the discipline invented in all types of religions. More specifically, in Nepal, father and mother used to sleep with their sons and daughters until they cross 5 years in average. But all around Europe, father and mother never sleep with their kids even. See the difference and realize the fact. Do you now realize that the discipline maintained by the people around the world based on their religions? Believing by touching/seeing and understanding by listening is accepted by everybody. Keeping this rule in mindset, a brief discussion about the explosion of facts along with potential research idea is the aim of this article and is noteworthy for every researcher.

This article is based on some facts within some regions of Nepal. I took some samples based on the realistic facts.

1.1 What is God?

The physical world consists of a three dimensional space. An object occupies a unique position in this space. Similarly, there is a mental/spiritual space and at any given time, we occupy a unique position in this space.

Just as an object in the physical space has a potential energy, I believe that all of us humans are endowed with immense mental energy, which depends on our position in the mental space. The potential energy of a body in physical space depends on its position, which is measured in terms of the three axes, namely x, y and z. Our mental/spiritual energy depends on the state of our mind, which in turn depends on our feelings.

Just as x, y, z axes (distances in x, y and z directions) form the three dimensions of the physical space, the mental space is a multi-dimensional space where the axes are our various feelings like love, fear, hope, faith, courage, etc. Our position in the mental space can be defined by how much we measure on the feelings axes.

1.2 Physical Space and Spritual Space

Just as the position of a body in the physical space determines its potential energy, our position in the mental space (that is, how much we measure on the various feelings axes) determines our mental state, which in turn determines our mental energy at any given time. The probability of success for what we do depends on our mental energy at the time when we do it.

Briefly, the concept of GOD and Religion are explained broadly as:

1.3Concept of the GOD
Possibly in the olden days there were extremely learned rishis (saints) who had mastered the art of reaching Godly zones. But they could not explain this to the common man in the absence of Mentomatics. In order to explain to the man in a language that he could understand in those days, they created the concept of God. They gave 'God' a physical human shape because that is all that common man understood then. Physical Science may not be able to explain complete GOD.

The concept of God was created by the rishis to help you to move closer to the high-energy zone from wherever you are in the mental space.

Concept of the GOD can be explained as a method, in fact a form of psychotherapy which helps you to get to a higher state of mind and to a higher mental energy, and closer to the Godly zone in the mental space. And where is God? Right within you. The high energy level that you can experience by reaching the high-energy zone is latent within you.

So the concept of God is the current best available method to reach the high-energy zone. It may be slow, not very easy to follow, but it is the best available method today.

1.4 Concept of the Religion

Religion is nothing but a code of conduct -- social norms and norms related to hygiene. Due to historic reasons, it was linked to the concept of God.

There was a wide gap between the learned and the common man in the ancient times. It is believing that the rishis were learned and wished the welfare of the common man. It might be because of they probably knew about disease, causes and the way to prevent. They wished to create the regulations of good social and hygienic behavior and ensure compliance. The best way to ensure compliance was to tell the common man that such behavior pleases God, or in other words, the religion says so. So most of the religious beliefs and rituals have a very scientific base. On the other hand, it may have many troubles in effect.

With having a brief idea about the concept of the GOD and religion, one can easily analyze that we are just learning the way to live our life by using the name GOD.

On the other hand, the paragraphs laid above do not mean that we should avoid the regulations created by learned human. But, one the other side, people are used to follow the norms that they have a series if lives even after they die.

This article is in fact not about the exploration of concept of religion based on the name of the GOD.

2. Assumptions based on Hypothesis

Assumptions are always created with the help of any sort of experiences and experiments - This is evident to all.

Here are some assumptions about the discovered of GOD shaped stones:

* Discover whether sculptor and or carver lived there for a long years in the ancient time?
* Discover whether it is a place for learned man (Rishi(s)) in the older age?
* Discover whether there were flooding or landslides in the particular place?
* Discover whether this is the place where the KING lived for years.
* Discover whether there was village in the older age?


3. Sampling
In the year 2057 B.S. (2001 A.D.), I had a great opportunity to find a crowd of people in the jungle on the way to temple "CHANDISTHAN", syangja, Nepal. It was due to the discovery of god-shaped stone by some workers. Wages workers were employed there for cracking stones in order to make a house in a nearby village. From the following day, people were gathering in the same place rather than going to the popular temple as people believe that the GOD showed a mirror to the people about the placement. Finally, people made next temple very close to the existing one.

I was so curious about this and tried to explore the way to introduce what, where and how it has been perisisting in the society? In fact, I mostly beleive on material science. In effect, I came to see many older people in the vilages. I made the questionaires based on the section above - Assumptions. very few of them are written below:

Firstly, Was there a temple before?
Secondly, is this a resource of stone for making houses over the village?
Thirdly, is this a place where sculptor engaged for a long years in order to make some architects?
Forthly, was there any KING living around the village?

and many more.

I have quite consistent answer of the second and third questions from the people, and remaining questions were not be answered perfectly.

Some of the answers were like this:

* Yes, Virkote Raja (KING of Vikot) lived on the hill (Just a couple of kilometers far form the Jungle) for a long years and he had many sculptors. Those scuptors were engaged both day and night in order to produce many arts from the stones and sometimes wooden arts.

* Sculptors were even living there for more than couple of years continuosly for pleasing the KING and King's family members.

* The place where sculptor lived is very good source of stones. These days, this source is used for extracting stones for making houeses as ther is no other sources found nearby.

4. Discusssions and Conclusions
This section analyzes the way how to get the answers from the people nearby the place where god-shaped stone was discovered as well as the answers from every people. In the earlier section, it is noted only the consistent answers out of many questions. Besides these, the following gives the universal proof of the fact.

* It is perfeclty known to every villagers that the KING lived for a long years in place.

* There was a source of stones of many kinds, from which the palace was built.

* Hundreds of sculptors were employed in producing many arts for decorating the palace.

Based on the above mentioned facts, we can prove that the discovered god-shaped stone is actually from those sculptors.

The evidents are now enough for the particular case to develop a conlcusion. However, bringing people for the shake of people and inventing alternative ways of living their lives is the matter of worth. With this in mind, we could say that the people built a temple due to the presence of god-shaped stone otherwise, they might not gathered in such a manner and devoted for the good will. This is what we say is the real discipline in the name of the GOD.
