Understanding the whole concept of heaven...


Heaven that is also called as Swarga in Hinduism is the stage when our Atman the soul within waits for a suitable body for it to manifest again. This Atman the soul within has a balance of positive merits due to which it remains in heaven (Swarga).

Any Atman the soul within that has a negative balance of merits is awarded hell, also known as Naraka in Hinduism. Naraka (hell) is also the stage when our Atman the soul within is in waiting for the next manifestation to occur.

Briefly, it can be stated, that if we have the balance of positive merits from zero to plus hundred we shall be awarded the stage of Heaven (Swarga) after our "Atman, The soul Within" has left the mortal frame. However if the balance of merits is between zero and minus hundred our Atman the soul within shall be given a place in hell (Naraka).

Heaven (Swarga) and hell (Naraka) are interim stages in the cosmic Life cycle of our Atman the soul within. The moment this Atman the soul within gets matching parents on Mother Earth... it shall again manifest a body... the body can be that of a Human Being and also of an animal depending upon the balance of merits or demerits possessed by the Atman.

As stated clearly in the Bhagavad Gita... the foremost of all sacred scriptures (the doctrine dictated by Lord Krishna to King Arjuna in the battlefield of Mahabharata between the Pandavas and the Kauravas... no Atman the soul within can directly gain immortality from Heaven.

Lord Krishna is considered as an Avatar (a direct incarnation of God) in Hinduism. He descended on Mother Earth roughly 1000 years before Bhagwan Mahavira, 1077 years before Gautama Buddha, about 1500 years before Jesus Christ and about 1700 years before the advent of Prophet Mohammed.

Yes there is a heaven and in fact there are 3 heavens. That why it is important to read the bible and not only hear what religious workers want you to hear and get paid for little of nothing. Like on this site if people would read the holy bible then there would not be so much confusion on this site about God and his works and trying to tap into the secrets things of God.

Yes and we should cooperate with God to develop a Chistlike character because a Christlike character is the only kind of character that would enjoy heaven and the only kind of character that can be trusted in heaven.

When you understand what heaven will be like it is easy to see that the person who does not prepare for heaven will have made the most awesome mistake of his life

If you believe God was created, then you can't believe in the Bible. If that is what you believe then you wouldn't even consider a heaven, or any other concept talked about in the Bible.

there are three heavens, the atmospheric heaven, where the birds fly, the starry heaven, where the moon, the planets are and the celestial heaven which is the dwelling place of God.
