Hey guys, today we are going to look at a strange temple which can foretell the end
of the world.
Recently some people have claimed that the Mayan Calendar actually indicates that the
world will end tomorrow, on June 21st.
Will the world end tomorrow?
What does Hinduism say about this?
There is an ancient place called HarishChandraGad, which has many ancient temples and some of
the structures are permanently submerged in water.
You can see steps going in but you cannot see what is underneath.
But the highlight is ,there is a very old cave temple here called Kedareshwar temple.
Inside this temple there is a huge lingam which is almost always surrounded by water.
This lingam looks small, but it is about 5 feet tall, and the water is waist deep.
But there is something truly miraculous.
There are 4 pillars originally built around the lingam, and you can see 3 pillars are
broken and are hanging in mid air, these are clearly hanging without any support.
How can a pillar hang in mid-air without any support?
How is this possible?
If you look closely, it appears that the structure is made out of one solid rock, and all the
pillars have been carved out of a single rock, perhaps this is why they are still able to
hang even though the bottoms have been destroyed.
But how were the 3 pillars destroyed?
According to Locals these were not destroyed by human beings, or even nature.
Only one pillar will collapse every many thousands of years, due to divine intervention.
They claim that every time a pillar collapses a Yuga will end.
Now what is a Yuga?
A Yuga is an Era in Hinduism and there are 4 Yugas mentioned in ancient texts.
And we are in the last Yuga now, very near to the end of the world.
In the past, every time one of the pillars collapsed, it marked the end of a Yuga.
So if this last pillar also collapses, this last Yuga will also end, and the entire world
will be destroyed.
Now, how will the world end?
A God known as Kalki will arrive from the sky and will destroy our already corrupted
world.
Of course, modern historians do not agree with this theory at all, and say this structure
itself was built only in the 7th century, and claim this is just 1300 years old.
But archeologists have found something shocking, they have found Microlithic artifacts in this
area.
Now, what is a Microlith?
A Microlith is a very small stone tool made by prehistoric people and archeologists now
say this place was inhabited by human beings even as far as 35,000 years ago.
Their findings prove that Harishchanragad is definitely a very ancient and even prehistoric
site, but locals say that this temple is even older than all these dates.
And more evidence of even older structures can be found in the nearby hilltop called
Kaal Bhairav Pinnacle.
Kaal Bhairav itself means The Eternal Time Keeper, I have shown you Kaala or Time, playing
a very important part in Hinduism.
Perhaps he can tell us when the our time will end.
Will the world really end tomorrow, so we can stop social distancing today?
Even if you do believe in the end of the world concept, this pillar is still standing as
of today, it has not fallen down.
So, the world will go on, but there is a similar belief about a structure in Sri Lanka also,
which I will show you tomorrow.
That might give us a clue if the world will end soon.
