THERE IS ONLY ONE MAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD!

All put together, there is only one man in the world, taking all living and dead. It is neither a fantasy nor an imagination but a truth. According to Hinduism sage Manu was the first man came into this world. Matsya Purana says that Lord Brahma had union with Goddess Shatrupa (Saraswati) and out of the union of them Manu was born. And he is believed to be the first man created on earth as per Hinduism.

As per Old Testament, God created the first man on earth was Adam.  "And then the Lord God formed man from the clay of the earth, and He breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul " (Genesis 2:7).  "... And he called their name Adam, in the day when they were created." (Genesis 5:2)

Modern science says something totally different about the formation of the world and whatever in it. The universe began as just a single point, then it is expanded and stretched to grow as large as it is right now, and it is still stretching. During this expansion in course of long stretch of time the star, the sun, moon, earth etc were formed. In the earth, during the long stretch of time the air, water, soil, plants and then minute life forms came into being. Then formed the bigger and bigger things like animals, birds etc and finally appeared the man on the earth.

According to Newton's Third Law, every action has its equal and opposite reaction. As per this theory the expansion caused by the big bang will cease at some point of time. Then the return journey starts. (Some scientists do not agree with this law in the space science) When the return journey takes place the area and mass will come down and the numbers will be reduced. In the case of man the billions in numbers may come down to millions, lakhs, thousands, hundreds, tens and finally to one man. It would be an existed man or a new man would be known only when it actually happens.

NASA finds that the universe is born 13.8 billion years ago. How long it may continue to expand and how much would be the return journey time cannot be estimated now.
