Modern scientific thinkers , namely those following scientific materialism in all its forms , assume the universe three dimensional . However, the Vedas brings us to the realisations of a multidimensional universe , one of the unlimited universes making up approximately one forth of the totality of existence. Many contemporary physicists, including Prof . Lisa Randall thinks along Vedic lines . We can say universes within universes within universes . Each universe , according to the Vedas, has a different engineer called Bramha , each of these Bramhas’ have different capacities according to the size of the universe they are overseeing . So, measurements of Vedic universes incorporate aspects that limited conditioned senses can not detect . Certainly , there are red shift anomalies within the calculations in modern cosmological calculations , Dr Richard Thompson, (Sadaputa das) mentions this in his book on Vedic cosmology . Are the stars so far away ? on one level, maybe on another level , maybe not .
For instance, Vedic cosmological calculations describe a feature of dimensional space , only eight hundred miles above this planet earth . The Upadeva planets , and they exist within their own particular dimensions . We can not see this region , but its influences are felt by some and its influences are enacted that influence events on our planet . Regards to senses differences , can you hear a dog whistle ? or see what cats see in detail in the dark ?can you hear the low pitch of a whales call . Mystics and yogis in the past the Vedas indicates frequently communed and commuted to this realms, not so much now, though , due to rampant materialism and inpure consciousness , but still a very few can do so . In some parts of the Vedas, the localised universe is described as 4.5 billion miles , but that should be understood in context to the greater universal picture.
The greatly renowned Vedic cosmological scholar in Gaudiya Vaisnavism says this ..
Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Goswami Thakura, recognized as a master of both Siddhantic Vedic astronomy and Puranic literature, provided specific measurements regarding the size of the universe based on classical Vedic texts . He maintained that the universe is vast, egg-shaped (brahmanda), and, while immense, is only one of innumerable universes in the material creation.
Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura quotes ancient Vedic texts like the Siddhānta-śiromaṇi to describe the mind-boggling scale of a single universe .
He explains that a single universe measures roughly 149 quadrillion miles in circumference. This vast size includes the core planetary systems, which span 4 billion miles in diameter, surrounded by seven massive elemental layers. These layers could be thought of as the store houses of the atomic realms that facilitate the many possibilities of the expanding universe. Expanding by the desires and constant activity of the living beings . The responsive universes are fulfilling and arranging the individual and collective karmic synchronicities of each soul . As soon as the living beings are injected into the universe by Maha Visnu , as they enter , the universe, along with its activities and its set times , for each living being , causes expansion . Each successive layer of the universe (consisting of water, fire, air, ether, etc.) expands in multiples .
The material universe indeed encompasses immense distance trillions upon trillions of miles and beyond . Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura used these descriptions to highlight the inconceivable, gigantic scale of material creation and its multidimensional features which are relative to the eternal spiritual world . Each one of the higher Vaikuntha planets can easily contain all these material universes The main spiritual abode , Goloka Vrndavana, the centre of spiritual existence ,can contain all the Vaikuntha planets .The mystery of the Goloka Vrndavana planet is that it appears as a village 17 miles in diameter . However, the whole of existence is within this seventeen miles . Thus, Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja is shining a light on multidimensional space . The Vedas also says within one atom , Lord Visnu is fully present along with His complete existence. When it comes to ” spiritual physics,” or math , we can not limit ourselves to the working of matter within the laws of three-dimensional space or time , or regulation math ,1+1 =1 and 1-1=1 1÷1=1..Marie Currie, the Nobel prize winner for her studies of radiation , took time to study telepathy and knew of its significance. Niels Bohr and Schrödinger , as well as Einstein and Richard Feynman, could easily comprehend and accept the endless and inescapable possibilities and understandings of multidimensionalism and its very realistic existence .The third and fifth Canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam highlights some of these cosmological affairs , Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami has published the Bhagavatam, its available in all languages throughout the world.
