Heaven and Hell

4- Heaven and Hell:

To the question, “Does Daheshism believe in Paradise and Hell? What do Heaven and Hell represent in Daheshism?”
Dr. Dahesh responds:

 

Yes, Daheshism believes in worlds that Holy Books collectively referred to as “Heaven and Hell.” Such physical worlds are numbered in the countless billions, and only a few thousands that we can see during the night sky. It was revealed to us through the Spirit, that each physical world has its own creatures, forms, rules, perceptions, and laws that vary considerably from what we have on our planet. Some are full of happiness, and others are full of horrible misery.


Earth is like a school of a certain spiritual level and is attended by any person who earned being in it. That is, anyone who has brought his spiritual level to its level, where he can learn several things and be subjected to many temptations, such as: arrogance, greed, and desires. Either the person passes the tests within himself, where good is victorious over evil and righteousness over immorality or fails the tests.


Daheshism believes that every creature on earth remains on earth after death, passing from one life to another, and in every life, taking on a certain form and social condition relative to his deeds in the previous life(s). This cycle continues until the person reaches a certain level, where he will move on to a better planet that is at a certain level of the worlds of Paradise or will descend to a lower planet that is at a certain level of the worlds of Hell. In this fashion, the ascending or descending on every planet is in accordance with his successes or failures in facing the trials until he reaches the level of perfection. Only at that point, that he becomes one with God and where his happiness is greatest. This is what the Hindu call “Nirvana,” or the goal of every Spirit is to become one with its Creator.
