    We can compare the whole cosmic universe with a dark room. Inside
     
    the room a few candles are flickering. With this candle-light the
     
    room is being slightly illuminated. We can call this candle-light as
     
    energy. Centring such energy each universe has developed. Several
     
    similar universes are positioned parallelly.
     
    The universe we are in does not only mean our earth or the solar
     
    system, but everything surrounding makes up our universe. Between
     
    two such adjacent universes there is a huge dark vacant space. By
     
    making an aperture through the wormhole we can cross this dark
     
    vacant space within minutes and go from one universe to another.
