Why does the Shri Sai Satcharitra argue that life on Earth is more valuable than residing in heaven?

πŸ“– Chapter 37

The text strongly argues for the profound importance of the earth-world over heaven. As explained in Chapter 37, heaven is considered merely a place for sensual enjoyment, from which one inevitably falls after their merit is exhausted. It questions the use of any place, however pleasant, that lacks the remembrance of God and the narration of the Guru's stories. In contrast, life on Earth, although fleeting, is invaluable because it provides the opportunity to offer one's actions to God. The chapter states that even an action performed in a single moment, when offered to God, can lead one to a place of fearlessness, making earthly life superior for spiritual attainment.
