Chapter 37 clarifies that the heavenly world is not merely a place for sensual enjoyment attained through sacrifices. Instead, it is the state of the Cosmic Being itself, a state of consciousness free from mental grief, disease, worry, sorrow, hunger, and the fear of death. In this divine state, the soul is completely fearless. A community that understands this will focus less on external rewards and more on internal purification, striving to overcome unrighteousness, ignorance, anger, and hatred, which are described as the true 'nooses of death'. This shared goal creates a community focused on achieving a fearless, divine state of being here on earth.
According to Sai's teachings, what is the true nature of 'heaven,' and how does this understanding benefit a spiritual community?
