Introduction to the Heavens - (720)

Overview

Once again this is also a difficult topic, or at least one that is and has been hotly debated, especially as to whether there is, or there is not a heaven.


Despite this many of the religions maintain that there is a world beyond this one, where there is Divinity and there is the absence of pain and suffering. Gnosis too affirms that there are the superior worlds and that these superior worlds or higher dimensions constitute heaven.

There is a phrase in Gnosis that says “there are degrees and degrees”. Heaven is no exemption, there are levels and levels of heaven in the cosmos and also within us. Certainly, as it is with the many other religions, it is the goal of someone studying Gnosis to first come to know the heavens and later transform oneself so that one’s nature is compatible with the heavens, thus making it possible to one day dwell there.


End (720).
