This book embodies the interesting tale of the Serpent Queen, Manasa, whose temples are found in many parts of India. The story of Manasa is associated with the Universal Creative Energy which has been profusely eulogized in the Rig Veda, Atharva Veda, and the Brahmanas. It is called Nag-Shakti, the snake energy, which suffuses every object of the universe from the highest point in the shy (Skumbh -- a etheral wave column) to the lowest end of the earth (Vasuki). In the human body it occurs in its coiled form called the Kundalini. The Vedic seer refers to this nag-shakti or snake energy what we now know as the binding force in an atom. Several hymns in the Rig Veda and the Atharva Veda deal with the riddle of creation of the universe in a true scientific manner, corresponding closely, if not exactly, with what is now being discovered by modern science. The diffenrence lies in the technical terms used by the Vedic Seers were with reference to familiar objects. The scientific theories were gradually transformed into spiritual conceptions and in later times into gods and goddesses in the image of human beings, the result being that their scientific values have been over shadowed and to most, either lost or non-existent.
