You should not underrate Hindu religious and spiritual so called beliefs or myths without reading and understanding them. The age of the universe is mathematically calculated to be 155.4 trillion years in Indian Scriptures. NASA has mistaken 13.8 billion years, the age of the earth to be the age of the universe.
If NASA could calculate '(see my SF post CAN ANYONE CALCULATE WHEN DID the ACCELERATING EXPANSION of the UNIVERSE BEGIN ? link -

the beginning of Expansion, they would soon realize their errors. One error NASA has already admitted. There are over 32 Mathematical, Observational, and Experimental 'hard' Evidences of Indian Cosmology as compared to NASA's 0-4.
NASA's funding is a political issue that doesn't give credit to Indians. Without Modern Astronomy it is not possible to understand Indian Cosmology. While I know both, NASA's ignorance about the Indian Cosmology, has penalized them for $0.7 trillion
