What kind of 'heaven' does Chapter 37 encourage devotees to seek, and how does it differ from the popular notion?

πŸ“– Chapter 37

Chapter 37 redefines the concept of heaven, steering devotees away from the popular notion of a celestial realm for sensual pleasure. Instead, it describes the true 'heavenly world' as an internal state of being: the realization of the Vairaj, or the Cosmic Self-form. As detailed in the chapter, this divine state is one free from mental grief, disease, worry, illness, sorrow, and the fear of death. In this state, the soul moves about completely fearless. This inner heaven is contrasted with the temporary heavenly abode attained through rituals, which is deemed useless if it lacks the remembrance of God's name and the company of devotees.
