#Hinduism Philosophy

 One who takes birth must die.It is true for all of us either humans or gods.

To allow Yama's entry, it was necessary to distract Hanuman. So Ram dropped his ring into a crack in the palace floor and requested Hanuman to fetch it. Hanuman reduced himself to the size of a beetle and entered the crack only to discover that it was no crack but the entrance to a tunnel that led to Nag Lok, the land of serpents. Hanuman met Vasuki, the king of serpents there and informed him of his mission.

Vasuki took Hanuman to the centre of Nag Lok where stood a mountain of rings! "There you will surely find Ram's ring," said Vasuki. Hanuman wondered how he would do that as it was like finding a needle in a haystack. But to his delight, the first ring that he picked up was Ram's ring. To his astonishment, even the second ring he picked up was Ram's ring. In fact all the rings that made up the mountain were identical. "What is the meaning of this?" he wondered.

Vasuki smiled and said, "This world we live in goes through cycles of life and death. Each life cycle of the world is called a kalpa. Each kalpa has four yugas or quarters. In the second quarter or Treta Yuga, Ram takes birth in Ayodhya. Then one day his ring falls into the subterranean realm of serpents through a tunnel. A monkey follows it and Ram on earth dies. So it has been for hundreds of thousands of kalpas. All these rings testify to that fact.”

Hanuman realised that his entry into Nag Lok and his encounter with the mountain of rings was no accident. It was Ram's way of telling him that But all things, Ram would be reborn each time the world is reborn.

This not only gives the concept of  Big Bang, creation of universe and Big Crunch, collapsing of entire universe into a single point but also death of Ram in Ramayan, indicates that we are not alone in this universe there are infinite number of Universe forming and destroying i.e  Parallel Universe does exist's according to Hinduism.
