Mythology and science fiction

Science fiction is about imagining the future.The future of mankind.The pace with which technology is altering our ways of life its very much possible that we are going to have a world of tommorrow quite different from our todays world.Science fiction writers’try to foresee that future very well in advance.Jules Verne,the celebrated French writer of last century had such a prophetic vision and could very well predict the man’s victory over MOON.
Its not that predicting the future is man’s persuit of recent origin.Our many scriptures are full of such references.Mythological descriptions of PUSPAK VIMAN which is depicted to have an endless capacity/facility to accomodate any passenger even at last moment of departure and which is also is an emotional entity,SUDARSHAN CHAKRA,which comes back to lord Krisna’s hand after killing the enemy and MAYA YUDDH a kind of virtual war where it only seems that a war is in progress but nothing happens in reality are just a few cases in point.IS NOT THEN MYTHOLOGY AND SCI FI BOTH ARE ANALOGOUS IN CONTENT AND NATURE?
Yes, our ancestors imagined all such bizzare and interesting things but alas the apropriate technology was not available at at contemporary times and we are still awaiting to see many of predictions made by our scripture writers to see the light of the day.AND MAY BE WE DONT HAVE TO WAIT LONG!INTELLIGENT MACHINES ARE ALREADY HERE.Many more things are in queu.We must salute wisdom of our ancecstors!Mythology still holds authencity to show us our future events like todays science fiction.
