Where is hell
Hell is not a defined place we go to after we die. The one who does not know the value of all the gifts we have, and cannot enjoy and be content with what we have is in hell. God has given us eyes to see and enjoy the beauty of the world, ears to hear good messages, mouth to speak only good and to bless others with our words. Hands are given to support and uplift others, and to work. Legs are given so we may walk to sacred places where great people have done arduous penance. By using our legs to reach such places, we can seek blessings at the feet of such great masters. The body is given so we may carry all our joys and sorrows, and the brain is given so we may use our intelligence, and discriminate between good and bad. Just in the body and the mind, we have so many gifts.
Not knowing these gifts, if we misuse our lives we are in hell. Some people waste their lives drinking and lying in the streets. Others drink and throw those bottles on river banks where others walk. Animals are safer to interact with than such people. Humans create their own hell by troubling others, cheating, forgery, promising something and letting people down, going against one’s conscience, and misusing knowledge and position for the sake of money. By going against the wishes of elders and cheating family members, we create hell for ourselves.
By understanding the value of our lives and using all our faculties for the benefit of the world, we avoid creating hell.
Blessings to all
