Many spiritual and philosophic writings such as the Vedas and Upanishads of India, the Biblical Books, the Apocripha Books, the medicinal knowledge in Ayurvedic Books of India, knowledge on Vastu Shastra as existent in India, etc, etc often make us wonder how these knowledge came into existence long ago, when human knowledge was in its primitive stages.

Humans here and there have been experiencing and getting such superhuman knowledge and wisdom since ages through which the beliefs in supernatural existence is firmed up in the minds of peoples all over the world.
