The world often praises heaven. How does the philosophy in this text redefine the concept of a heavenly world?

📖 Chapter 37

Chapter 37 challenges the conventional view of heaven as a place for sensual enjoyment attained through sacrifices. Instead, it redefines heaven as a state of being—the Vairaj, or the Cosmic Self-form, which is free from all mental grief. This divine heavenly state is characterized by the absence of disease, worry, sorrow, hunger, thirst, and the fear of old age or death. It is a state where the soul moves about completely fearless, without the duality of 'do's and don'ts'. The text explicitly questions the value of a heavenly home that lacks the remembrance and chanting of Lord Narayana's name, suggesting true divinity is found in a state of consciousness, not a location.
