Home Yoga spirituality Spiritual masters Paramahamsa nithyananda Paramahamsa Nithyananda on April 15, 2008 From young age, we have been taught that heaven and hell are geographic locations outside us. Be very clear: heaven and hell are not geographic; they are purely to do with your own disposition, with your own mind. You carry heaven or hell with you wherever you go and so you find it wherever you go. A small story: In a kindergarten school one day, that teacher asked the children, "Where do you think hell is?"

When they laid down regulation for day to day living, they made it clear that these regulations, the smruti, are changeable. These regulations need to evolve with time and space. There is no rigidity, there is no compulsion, and there is no pronouncement that … [Read more...]
