    The topics of heaven and hell often spark engaging discussions in blogs. Here, I would like to share my view.
    Once a creature is born—whether human, animal, or otherwise—it must undergo both hell and heaven; life is complete with the experience of both.
    This leads me to ponder: what constitutes a complete life for humans and animals?

    Focusing on the human aspect, many believe that a fulfilling life includes key elements: a good education, a stable job, a home, a partner, children, and financial security. Achieving these milestones is often viewed as a form of heaven, while the absence of any of these can feel like hell.

    I believe that heaven is a gift from God, while hell is something we create ourselves. None of us choose where we are born, to whom, or in what form; these decisions are beyond our control.

    In my view, those born in countries where they can experience a wealth of principles, customs, and traditions—many of which have been handed down by great saints and scholars—are indeed fortunate. These teachings provide valuable guidance for leading a fulfilling life, allowing them to feel a sense of heaven.

    Hell can be likened to a virus that spreads negative vibes, surrounding individuals and altering their mindset. This negativity can influence how they perceive the world and themselves.

    The experience of dogs and other pets can also be seen in terms of heaven and hell, depending on their ownership. For pets, having a caring owner can provide a sense of heaven through love, regular meals, and a safe environment. In contrast, stray dogs often lack care, timely food, and the comforts of a home, which can feel like hell.

    However, stray dogs enjoy a certain freedom that pets do not have. Since animals cannot make these choices for themselves, it's often better for them to have a home rather than live as strays.

    Ultimately, whether we experience heaven or hell in our lives often comes down to our perspective
    and mindset.

    Glad that you have included animals in the discourse.This indicates an inclusive mindset.However everything offered by heaven will come to naught if we don't enjoy good health.All other factors take a back seat.

    @RatnaMalliswari,

    Heaven is where everyone not only take care of themselves but others as well. They consider self-respect as the most important aspect in life and expand that to the entire community, state, country, and to the entire humanity. The expansion of consciousness to that level makes one experience heaven. It is a place where the service to the humanity and love for other species are priorities. It is when everyone derives happiness in making everyone else happier. A place where jealousy, greed, anger, lust, desire, attachment, and ego are not dominant. Everyone is respected equally and the birds and animals are fed regularly irrespective of whether they are domesticated or not. A society where the power of love is dominant.
