What does Chapter 37 say about the true nature of heaven and how can we achieve that state?

📖 Chapter 37

According to the teachings in Chapter 37 of the Shri Sai Satcharitra, heaven is not a physical place for sensual enjoyment but a state of being. The text asks, "What else is heaven? The Vairaj (the Cosmic Being) itself is the heavenly world." It describes this divine state as one free from mental grief, disease, worry, sorrow, hunger, thirst, and the fear of old age or death. To achieve this state, one must cross the "nooses of death," which are identified as unrighteousness (adharma), ignorance, anger, and hatred. By overcoming these negative qualities and realizing the divine principle that pervades all things, the soul can move about fearlessly in what is described as the true "divine heavenly state."
