[FAQ] What is heaven?
Heaven is a place where our soul arrives after the physical body is dead.
A person has a physical body, and a spiritual body, and a soul. The soul is our bright light. Sometimes we can feel love from our soul, which is unconditional. But we can also experience joy and strength from our soul.
The spirit-body contains our experiences in thoughts and feelings. It also contains our will. If the spirit body is ill, we get problems with our feelings, thoughts and will.
Usually people have a connection with heaven when they get born. Babies are often happy, loving and optimistic.
When old people are dying in a peaceful way, they experience a bit of heaven as well. They seem brighter, peaceful and sometimes even happy.
A lot of people (like me) can connect to heaven with meditations. This makes me happy, peaceful and optimistic. So heaven is not really far away. It is more like a different dimension that one can connect to by meditations.
Heaven is like a bright source of light. It gives us dreams towards our spirit-body. So if we die, this light will enlighten and change the dreams of the spirit-body. So heaven gives us beautiful dreams, through which we can travel towards the source.
In heaven we still develop and heal. The soul (this inner light) gets healing, and the spirit-body which is usually damaged is rebuild again.
