| Summary: | Abstract: Zero was a brilliant innovation and most significant achievement but it has threatened the
foundations of modern physics and is behind all of the big puzzles in physics. Today, zero lies at the heart of
one of the biggest scientific controversies of all time. The mysterious zero is posing challenges not only to
intellectuals, philosophers, scientists, mathematicians, historians and theologizes but also is confusing and
un-easing a common man. This article is devoted to raise awareness of social, conceptual and operational
issues related with mysterious zero. The focus is those individuals involved in the process of teaching and
learning mathematics. It is suspected that this article will enable them to think more clearly rather than to
