kind of way, nor can anyone go across them. Only a special kind of gods can enter Krsnarāji.
(3) If a strange intruder enters Krsnarāji or the black-hole, he can never return and is destroyed there.
(4) Scientists believe that at the other end of the black-hole, there is a counter universe named white hole. Similarly at the other end of Krsnarāji, there is a counter-world of gods.
(5) According to Mr. Vakharia one of the two ends of Tamaskāya (embodiment of darkness) in the Arunavara ocean, is black-hole, the other is the white hole and krsnarāji is called worm hole. 24
The similarities shown above by Mr.Vakharia are perhaps not proper. The reasons are as under :
(1) Scientists show that space has a curved shape but according to the Jain theory, space is a one whole element/substance and it is inert or nontransformable in any condition. Therefore, its shape cannot be changed.
(2) Only a special kind of gods enter krsnarāji, when they wish. They hide in it and can come out when they wish. But attracted by its gravitational force, an object enters the black-hole without any effort and then it never comes out. According to what scientists guess, it perhaps enters the counter universe of white hole. This is only a conjecture and no reality. This similarity is, therefore, not proper.
(3) Scientists believe that if a strange intruder or intruding object enters the black-hole, it is destroyed. None but gods can enter Kțsnarāji. There is, therefore, no question of a strange intruder or intruding object entering it.
The fourth and the fifth similarities shown by Mr.Vakharia are mutually contradictory. In the fourth similarity, he says that kşşnarāji is the black-hole and its other end opens into the world of gods (counter-universe) named the fifth Brahmaloka. But in the fifth similarity, the eight divisions of Krsnarāji are named worm holes. There is, therefore, no propirety in both these similarities.
According to science, there are many black-holes, not only eight.
He has also shown two more similarities which are not at all proper. What is the reasons for believing that Krsnarāji or Tamaskāya is believed
