Hi List,

Modern physics tells us that about 10 to 20 billion years ago, the 
universe was created from the explosion of a primeval atom (the 
phenomenon popularly known as big bang). I couldn't resist noticing 
the coincidental reading in S.Br.

"Once upon a time all these worlds were verily near and contiguous. 
(sAyaNa adds that one can touch the sky by lifting one's hand). The 
dEvas thought, how can we create space for ourselves? They breathed 
the three-syllabled word "vItayE" through these and caused the world 
to expand out".

(The explanation occurs during an artha-vAda of sAmidhEnI verses).

Regards,
KK
