Understanding
the whole concept of Heaven
(swarga - swarg)
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, aka 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 Pandavas and 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 Mahavira,
1077 years before Gautama
Buddha, about 1500 years before Jesus
Christ and about 1700 years before the advent
of Prophet Mohammed.
He was the foremost of all preachers who descended on Mother Earth
to pass on to Humanity the cosmic
wisdom of the ages... the doctrine by Lord Krishna which
his available in Bhagavad
Gita contains everything, knowing which every Human Being
on its cosmic journey (the journey being undertaken by our atman,
the soul within) can gain enlightenment
and finally salvation
moksha!
Every
Atman has to finally take the form of a Human Being to gain immortality... in
other words salvation (moksha in Hinduism). There is no other path available to
our atman the soul within. The form of a Human Being is the highest manifestation
in the cosmic Life cycle of our atman the soul within.
Born as a Human Being is something that even gods desire... and what are gods...
gods are those atmans (souls) in heaven that have almost reached the final stage
in the cosmic Life cycle. They are just waiting to manifest the body of a Human
Being before achieving salvation... Salvation as was achieved by Bhagwan Mahavira
of Jainism, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and finally Prophet Mohammed!
In the last about hundred
and fifty years only two persons have gained enlightenment and they are Sri
Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi
Ramana.
Before wanting to go to Heaven: Must we not learn the definition of heaven!None
of these Man
Gods directly gained enlightenment and finally immortality direct from
Heaven (Swarga)... it was just not possible. They had to come down to the abode
of Mother Earth and take the form of a Human Being before finally leaving for
the cosmic abode of God... Vaikuntha
in Hinduism.
