failure in reaching the desired goal was tearing apart their confidence level gradually with each passing moments...
Then, there was light! Finally, a group of scientists came forward with a new proposal for this experiment. According to their opinion, they said, it is necessary to blend up the body cells of inferior species to that of an intelligent one in an effort to create a breed of advanced species, unless if it is possible to overcome all the mismatches between the duos. They conveyed their message to Bhagban Brahmma, the then in charge and the 'All-in-all' to the 'Biotechnology and Gene-Modulation' department. At once, this proposal was granted. So far, 'Hit and trial' test runs were conducted on different body samples accumulated from different species of Earthly beings, now, with Bhagban Brahmma's consent into the matter, they initiated tests with two, or possibly three samples where one of the test samples was derived from the body of the Titans itself!
Do not make yourself comfortable with the notion of easiness of the project, Maharshi Valmiki; the task was never an easy one. Multiple mismatches between parent cells were out there. Some might be easy to overcome; a majority is hard to put even a dent into it! However, a team of exceptionally brilliant, talented and dedicated Gods made this impossible possible. To which extent it is possible, which combination is perfect and how to cross over the fences – they all sorted out the remedies after a long-term dedication to their job.
The efforts were not all about blending two different parent cells and create an advanced species only; the questions to the puzzle was, the first one – which inferior body cell never rejects the higher God-cell and blend perfectly? The second part of the puzzle was – What considerable damage it could bring forth to the host body after the created embryo is embarked into its womb. They find the answer to both the parts of the puzzle; the 'Apes' was the answer to it. In search of the next question, the Gods placed the embryo into a Mama-Ape's womb. There were some failures in the first place; but in the end, they tasted the taste of victory! One day the test resulted in a success, the first-ever offspring was born out of this test! It was the first ever-intelligent species, the prime prototype of its kind, result of Artificial Insemination. Its mother was an ape; and the father? Bhagban Brahmma himself! His semen was used in creating this first offspring, in this whole project; this somehow makes him the biological father to this demigod, isn't it? After this project and some more, the Gods entitled him as 'Praja-shisrakhyu', the One-father to all of his subjects as his semen was used for multiple times more to create more hybrid species, further.
So, the newer species with higher intelligence is born now; yet, it wasn't an end to the puzzle. It is just the beginning of it. More barriers are still in the vicinity. The major barrier among them – a hybrid never tastes the complete features of its parent elements; instead, they are induced with a part of it. As an instance, an ape has a huge physical strength; whereas a God has a longer lifespan among many of their other features. But we are the hybrids; as a result, we have lower physical strength than the apes, and a lifespan considerably shorter than the Gods. How long do we, humans, survive Maharshi? Is it sixty? Or seventy? Perhaps eighty it is! The Gods have a much longer lifeline than we do have!
More than a week earlier from now, you have seen Bhagban Vishnudev yourself. What was his age do you think? Middle-aged, right? Now, when the fifth descendant of your legacy is going to meet him, he will observe him more or less in the same age as you saw him today. Definitely, for a longer generation of time, he will stay 'Immortal' in our eyes. Once I created a calendar comparing our and their life span. There is a depiction of relative comparison and the estimated time span taken by two distinct planets to have a complete rotation around their stars – their planet and equivalent time-span of our Earth. In case if you need it, do not hesitate to ask for it.
Whatever it is, now, an intelligent species was created theoretically, but it is time to nurture them with the utmost care. This newer breed cannot be allowed to hang around on the tree-branches; neither should they be allowed to stay on trees. This process of hanging around on the trees or to shift from one tree to another involves some high-tension stress that creates some negative impact morphologically. This tensile stress creates a reversible, opposite force in the head that prevents natural growth of the brain. That is why this 'engineered' apes must get their rear down off the trees. After all, they are 'Engineered', isn't it? In the first step, they were adapted to life on the ground, with their struggle of existence on hard soil. And, they were made carnivorous intentionally! The tenure of this whole process is way, way longer compared to the average life-span of a human. Then, the carbon test was initiated. These 'modulated' species were transported to Earth. They were kept isolated from the other species of apes and monkeys. This individual, distinct species of apes fit themselves to stay on the ground. They slowly formed into a newer species by evolution – the prime parents to all the wonders later; 'Danavas (The Giant)', 'Rakhshasas (The Monsters)', 'Gandharbas' and the 'Manushyas (The Humans)'. The life continues in its own way, own rhythm.
Don't think the research was stopped or paused. Its expansion continued to outgrow. Creation of the first prototype breed was the first step only; the Gods had run similar tests on at least seventeen different species of apes! Among them, the top four best species were carried into the Earth, some of the rest of the species were parked; remaining species could not pass on the test of the 'Survival of the Fittest'. They were neutralized ruthlessly. There was no other way to keep them...you guess!
The second phase of the experiment was initiated on these top four species on Earth. They had features like:
· The 'Giant' apes – Low intelligence; highest, immense physical strength. Least rate of evolution. Size of grey matter is small. Tallest stature among all test apes.
· Highly intelligent Apes – superior I.Q. Higher Physical strength. They have a rapid and maximum rate of evolution. The species have the power of Reasoning. Their adaptation power is literally 'God-gifted'. They are termed very often as – 'The species with all the blessings of Bhagban Brahmma'. They are top claimant to establish a better civilization.
· Medium height, swift-moving apes – they are literally holding the second position in accordance with the wit and intelligent, right after the second species. They have a good rate of evolution; they can use their reason, but not quite efficiently as seen in the second species in the list. Physical strength and average height might stand the same with them, or may not, but the deficit of strength is covered by the stamina and incredible flexibility. They are flexible, indeed!
· Lowest Stature Apes with High Intelligence – We are the legacy to this species, Maharshi! The descendant of a kind of killer ape with high instincts and lust for blood. Not so sure, why the Gods chose them to create us, but this is a fact. Physical Strength is lesser than other selected species, but wit and quick response power is maximized. They are the lowest in height.
