the concept of heaven and hell is there in many religions. you must have heard description about 7 types of heaven and hell. often all this looks confusing as well as scary. at times people wonder whether all this is true or just fiction.
if can not be fiction because we all have lived in heaven and hell like situations in our life. have not you?
there are three types of heaven and hell:
1. living in heaven and hell immediately – you create your own heaven and hell inside you. when you do any good karma then immediately you feel good. whereas when you do a bad karma then immediately you feel bad. so your action determines whether you are going to have a happy heart or you are going to suffer emotionally.
this is more true for people who are sensitive and considerate. a bad person may not feel any remorse for hurting someone. because for over a period of time he has killed his inner voice. moreover his soul may not be so mature or refined. but this does not mean that a bad person will not face the effects of his karmas. every one has to face the fruits of their karmas in this life time or in next life time. law of karma is applicable to everybody and even to gods.
results of some karma is delivered instantly. for some karma it takes time to get the effects. you may experience the effect of some karmas in next life. i have read that in total it takes three life time to clear the effects of all your good and bad karmas.
2. living in heaven or hell dimension once you die – once you die then everyone is not reborn immediately. for souls who are still very much attached to the earthy dimension they linger on and they try to fulfill their desires via other living beings. you can call these unfulfilled souls as ghosts. their inner state is very painful, frustrated and sad. you don’t know how long they will stay in this state and suffer. their emotions are too intense than what human being experience. so they experience so much pain in few minutes than what a normal human being experience in one month.
few souls who have lived a very traumatic life goes for a resting period so that they heal themselves. few souls who have done very good karma spend time in very blissful state or in the dimension of devas (gods). some souls wait for the right womb to take birth. it all depends on many conditions and varies from soul to soul. the time spend in other dimension is a learning phase as well as preparation for next birth.
life in other world depends upon the karma you have done while living on earth. if you have done good karma then you will be in corresponding situation in life after death and so is true for bad karmas. intensity of good and bad situation depends upon your karma.
3. rebirth with karmic conditions of heaven and hell – you are reborn in earth with karmic patterns which will create heaven and hell like situations for you. again this is as per your karma. if you have done good karma then you will be born with a destiny where everything is easy for you. you have a midas touch. you are born in a family and in a place where your life looks like dream for other less privileged people.
on the other hand, if you have done bad karmas in previous life then you will be born in a poor family or in a family which is going through a bad time financially, emotionally or socially. all this depends upon your karma. e.g. if you have cheated people in past life then in this life it is your turn to get cheated.
this cycle of life, death and rebirth will go on unless one becomes enlightened or self realized. over a period of time the soul should mature. in every birth soul is born with a lesson to be learnt and advance in next level of maturity. so don’t take this human birth lightly. listen to your inner guide so that you fulfill the mission for this lifetime.
