Since the past several days I have heard that "Aparapakshya" is going on and it ends today i.e. on Mahalaya Amavasya.
During this period people do prayers and offerings to the Souls of their Ancestors.
Yesterday, I had read in the issue of "Speaking Tree" which comes with Times of India that during this time some kind of portal opens and the Ancestors' souls who have not been released for rebirth or to the abode of the lords maybe heavens or "Vaikuntha" will get a chance to get released provided their offspring do the prayers or "Shraadh" properly.
Is it true? We do not know. If we look at the "Interstellar" movie the same thing was shown that a Wormhole acts as a portal between galaxies and though it exists a long way from Earth close to Saturn.
We know one thing that religion is based on faith and belief. And some things have been passed down generations.
And this "passing down" is what we have.
We know that a copy of a copy is not quite good as copy of the original. Same was said by Michael Keaton in "Multiplicity".
So what has been handed down generations could have lost its true meaning.
But if a portal can open near Saturn as was shown in Interstellar and events happening there can affect events in Earth, it is quite possible that a portal can open in Earth itself.
In terms of universe distances, distance between Earth and Saturn would be microscopic to say the least.
