Indeed, Chapter 37 questions the desire for a conventional heaven attained through rituals, describing it as merely a place for sensual enjoyment that lacks the essential remembrance of the Lord's name. It posits that the true 'heavenly world' is the Vairaj, the Cosmic Being itself. This divine heavenly state is not a location but a state of being, described as the Virat Self-form, which is completely free from mental grief, disease, sorrow, hunger, thirst, and the fear of death. In this state, the soul moves about completely fearless, beyond the duality of 'do's and don'ts'.
The text mentions heaven, but seems to discourage seeking it. What is the described alternative or 'true' heavenly state?
