Different sects and cultures envision heaven correspondingly to their social and racial habits of belief: streets of gold, endless pleasures with virgins, the happy hunting grounds, angels making music on celestial harps, truly a heaven of many mansions. But what is it really like for everyone?
The spiritual master from India tells us the true description of heaven and hell. When an evil person sheds his mortal frame and goes through the door of death into the hereafter, he continues to be evil and does not become an angel. Only one who has been angelic on earth when crossing over the abyss of death can enter the superior environment of Heaven. As birds live in the air, worms live in the earth and fish live in the water, angels reside in the finer vibratory atmospheres in various regions of the astral universe according to their merits from their pre-astral life on earth. Likewise fish cannot continue to live out of their watery environment, unclean spirits or tamp souls have to stay on the grossest astral planets. Finer spirits live in the higher luminous planets; if tramp souls were to dare to move towards those higher regions, they would be instantly 'astral-ocuted' or shocked by higher voltage of astral power.
The lifespan in the astral world far exceeds that of the life on earth. The average span of life for the advanced astral inhabitant is up to one thousand years according to our measurements on earth. For more detailed information about the astral world read chapter 43 in the book Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda a spiritual classic.
There are some souls who on earth were criminals, robbers, murderers, drunkards and particularly treacherous, vicious and licentious beings. And those individuals who have left their bodies in a state of sin as with those who foolishly and ruthlessly committed suicide are thought of as tainted souls in the astral spheres. Imprisoned in their astral bodies they grieve the loss of their earthly life and find no rest and therefore must roam in the lower astral planes grieving the loss of their physical embodiment or hating to be reborn. These pitiful souls have to wander around in the ether until they have worn out the karmic effects of their bad actions. There are evil-possessed people who made nothing but trouble in this world and as evil-obsessed spirits they continue their mischief-making in the astral plane and in the physical plane as astral tramp souls.
Wicked souls however have many strange and unpleasant experiences after death in the afterlife. Excitable and restless people often experience terrible nightmares while sleeping, likewise when people of troubled wicked disposition leave their body will experience accordingly to the law of karma terrible astral nightmares during their death sleep due to the mirror image of their gathered evil. People of evil actions will experience periodic dreadful nightmares in the nether regions of the astral world. It is impossible to find salvation or be saved praising the name of the Lord or uttering crescendos of hallelujahs.
When you misuse the power of free choice you forfeit your chance of incarnating in a divinely endowed human body and instead this misuse of power will cause you to rebirth in a demonic womb or in some hellish state of existence either on earth or in a place of violence and suffering in other regions of dark astral worlds or in another universe, characterized by nightmares and fearsome beings. This terrible karmic fate of these demonic mentalities is to continue to be trapped birth after birth in darkest delusion unless they awaken themselves by right action and determination. If not they may further descend to the lowest depths even incarnating in an animal body for a time or in some astral bestial form as for the insane person who has lost all reason.
There are some universes where those who have immersed themselves in nothing but evil will reincarnate in animal bodies or in human beings of bestial or base natures in vile conditions that are primarily dominated by manifestations of evil as likened to prehistoric earth in the age of bestial creatures as dinosaurs and beasts so ferocious of air, land and water; with interspecies wars keeping their inhabitants screeching with devouring and cannibalistic murders with depraved beings who dwell as demons and goblins. After so many nightmarish incarnations of deaths and miseries all of these vicious brutes, wild beasts, evil goblins and the grossest human forms, should learn their lessons and make every effort to depart from these celestial histrionics. Thus, according to the heavenly ordinance of karmic law the "lowest among men" in their next incarnation attract a birth that is inauspicious in surroundings commensurate with dissolute behavior.
Our karmic pattern will determine how high or low are status is at birth. The deep truths of the karmic laws should not be viewed upon metaphysically as an abstraction but as a way of life. This is why it is so important not to associate with lowlifes. The snake is impervious to its own venom but the poison is harmful to someone who is bitten; our only rational course of action is to exterminate the snakes or not go near them without an antidote. The intelligent man remedies the situation by remaining in good company and by removing himself from the company of evil people. You and I are our own saviors.

Top-level comments on this article: (2 total)Greetings my friend.I have been working upon the astral planes for well over 25 years ,and my job is to help those who have passed on and who still think they are in the world of the living. Many of them are earthbound, or are so ashamed at what a mess they made of their lives that they become their own judge, and thus condemn themselves to the dark regions of the astral planes until they have faced their demons ,and who have ,after eons of time,made their peace with God ,and who will have to work out their karma during their next incarnation. Some of the other work I do is to create a climate of hope and expectancy for the return of the World Teacher whom many know as Maitreya.
Excellent article Gary. And yes this pretty much says it all. But chances are the astral worlds of the lower are more spiritual or they truly become physical in manifestation on some rock like world to low for us to see. This explains Bible day monsters, bird men extra. When they are spiritually very cruel, their spiritual energy becomes distorted and ugly. On a world or low planet their energy becomes physical
revealing the wierd animals and monster like looking creatures. Misusing our freewill and freedom to choose in cruel we simple become cruel and ugly looking
Awsome
