Soul continues to live even after the death of physical body. Living in physical body is only a trans migratory state of the soul in its journey through the world. Every night, soul experiences beyond death state in the form of dream. While in the dream, soul is not aware of the physical body it is possessing, its relationship with other physical bodies and the limitations of time and space. This is precisely what every soul experiences after the death of physical body. Soul creates its own world in dreams based on the impressions it has formed birth after birth. Hell and Heaven experiences depend on the kind of dreams it sees. Scary and painful dreams are experiences of hell and dreams of joy and pleasure are the experiences of heaven. There is no separate hell or heaven to be visited or experienced. Erase all unwanted, troublesome and painful impressions (especially about other people) from the mind as it is you, who is going to suffer the consequences and not the other person, against whom you are carrying these impressions.

Once, I had an out of body experience when I met with an accident and was operated upon. I felt as if I am seeing myself, from the ceiling, being operated by the doctors even though I was on anesthesia and unconscious. Doctors were surprised when I told them what I saw during operation, conversations between doctors and nurses etc. I can never forget this experience during my life time. This experience made me believe of my existence even without physical body.

Q: Every religion says that if we perform bad deeds we will go to hell and good deeds will take us to heaven. Is it true?

A: Good and bad deeds are basically the impressions we carry on our sub-conscious mind for the various experiences (good and bad) gathered during our present and previous lives. These impressions (deeds) remain in the mind till corresponding results have been experienced by the mind. Some deeds give their results when the soul is in the physical body, some through dreams and other deeds in both i.e. in physical body as well as in dreams (that is why many people find their dreams coming true in the physical world).

There is no separate Hell or Heaven to be visited after death, but the mind creates its own hell and heaven based on the impressions it carries. Remember any one particular night when you had very scary dream, you shivered, perspired and screamed. You wanted to wake up but couldn’t. Somebody woke you up hearing you scream or you woke up after little bit of struggling. Can you imagine such dreams continuing for long periods without your being able to wake up as there is no physical body allowing you to wake up (after death). Nobody to help you and no solution to get out of the situation. This would be the experience of soul after the death of physical body for the bad impressions it carries. Do you think there can be worse experience of hell than this?
