Are You Ready To Die?

Are you ready to die? All living beings will die one day, we are not immortal, but have you thought of death?

Death is all the beginning of a new life! We cannot predict our death and we can die at any moment and in any circumstance. Even you are good or a bad person, you will think of death once in your life. Death has been always a creepy subject to talk, but in reality if you think deeply, death is something extraordinary.

I think someone must not be afraid of death, the problem is some beliefs or religions have given death a scary image to force people to believe in something else you will go to hell after dying. Based on some near-death experience accounts, death is not that creepy as you think. In majority of cases, the soul goes into a tunnel of light where there is a complete peace and harmony and you can meet your deceased relatives. We have also some deathbed vision accounts where the deceased relatives come to pay a visit to a person who will die soon, to encourage the person to travel to the other world without fear and difficulties.

Thus, whatever is your situation is right now, whether you are in good health, or you are suffering from a disease which will make you die soon or you are disabled, I advise you to never be afraid of death…face it, be courageous, death is something natural…and death is not the end of everything…because a new life is born after it…

Heaven And Hell

After you die, will you go to Heaven or Hell? This is a question which most of us have been asked, right? Do you believe in Heaven and Hell? Let’s talk about them today…

Firstly, both Heaven and Hell are originated from religions. Each religion has its own belief in Heaven and Hell. The theory is the same, after we die, life continues, leaving the physical body, our soul continues to survive. In other words, death is all about the beginning of a new life! So, how will you go to Heaven or Hell? Again here, the principles are the same in all religions, if you did good actions on earth, you may get Heaven but if your bad actions outweight the good, you may end in Hell. We must think also that several theories exist to describe both Heaven and Hell. We know them in sacred books, unfortunately, humans have added some beliefs which may not really exist! Let’s describe some religions what they say on them below:

In Christianity, Heaven is a place or a world where the soul has eternal life. It is also a place where God lives, where you will enjoy your life without negative feelings, emotions or thoughts. Concerning Hell in Christianity, it is a place where the sinners will dwell, a place with blue flames with maggots, a place where there will be gnashing of teeth and so on, it is creepy right?

Move on Islam now, Heaven has mostly the same descriptions with Christianity. In Islam, there are 7 kinds of Heaven, not all are the same, only those who have believed in one God who is Allah without associating anything with Him will be go there. For Hell also is mostly the same thing with that of Christianity, a creepy place, a real place with punishments for the sinners.

In Hinduism, there are 6 Heavens, each of them is different from each other. The Hell also is a severe place of all kinds of punishment, depending the actions by the person, he/she can be re-incarnated again according to Karma.

Thus, the above explanations are the basic descriptions of both Heaven and Hell in some religions. Some skeptic guys can say why God would create a place to give punishments to sinners if He really loves us? We are born impure, we cannot be perfect but we can try to be perfect, are we at fault? Other persons can argue that we are not at fault if we did a mistake on earth, we are here because Eve ate the apple, if she has not eaten, all of us would be in Heaven, so why punish me when I did not eat the apple? As you see, there are many school of thoughts to contradict the existence of Hell. God is love, he cannot punish even He commands everything because punishment leads to anger, and anger is evil!

Take a look on some near-death experience accounts, I fully believe in near-death experience, and if you read some accounts, many of these persons who experienced it will say that they do not believe in Hell but purgatory. God cannot create a Hell, can a mother punish her child eternally? Some persons who experienced near-death argue that Hell is just a place where the soul has to be purified. Heaven exists but not a creepy Hell where there is sky high flames or whatever barbaric aspects.

Personally, I believe Heaven is a spiritual world, but I do not believe in a Hell with fire, etc… For me Hell is a purification place, moreover, I do not believe that we are judged by our good actions to be in Heaven, what is the use to perform good actions when your heart is full of hypocrisy and jealousy? It does not make sense! For me, if we try to help each other, to love everyone and the nature and to forgive, you will be in Heaven, of course try to remove the hypocrisy, jealousy and hatred in our heart first!

As conclusion, I have written this article by not debating it deeply as I should do because I would include many contradictions in sacred books and I do not want to hurt anyone! So, I decided to give only my opinion on both Heaven and Hell. Not all people will share the same beliefs, but I would be happy if you share your point of view as well!

Afterlife!

What will happen after you die? Is there any existence of Heaven and Hell? I think every human has thought about it. I do not know what will happen, however I will give my point of view on this subject.

Religions speak the same theory, but we must think out of the box and analyze a various factors to see if clearly we will be judged after death in front of God. After researching intensively on Near Death Experience, I have noticed that these persons who went in the afterlife and returned did not mention too much about Heaven and Hell. In fact, they say it was a fabulous peaceful moment especially when they passed through the tunnel of light. They met their deceased relatives or friends, a sign of encouragement and positiveness in the spiritual world. Some people did face immense problems in Near Dearth Experience, such as met weird creature, felt tremendously scared and others… To know more, see my post on Near Death Experience here. Therefore, we can say there is no sign of Heaven and Hell. Let’s talk of Deathbed Vision now, why your deceased family will come to encourage you to die? It is strange in a proper sense. We often say, dead persons do not return back, it has a contradiction because if your deceased family come to see you, hence, surely dead people do come back! Furthermore, if they come to encourage you, there must be a reason, it can prove there is nothing harmful in afterlife!

We humans have grown in superstitions, we got a brain to analyze and to think, and thinking afterlife is never a sin, when we are asking ourselves how we got life so why we cannot think afterlife? Certain religions have created a barrier to prevent followers thinking of death, what will happen after death etc… I believe someone must do good in life, keeping way from greediness, magic, hypocrisy, jealousy and so on…so that we can die in peace, and have a marvelous death where all our paths will be opened with light to reach the afterlife!

Black And White Magic!

‘Magic’ here is completely different from these magic shows you often see on T.V. These magic shows are just fake illusions where magicians use tricks to entertain you. This article is based on the real magic which I will give my point of view.

Let’s start by Black Magic! This kind of magic is performed when someone want to achieve something or hurt another person. Black Magic is condemned in most religions, and there is a fundamental reason behind it. Some sects are for magic, however they always argue it is like a form of sacrifice to please God. In a Black Magic ritual, the leader often performs human or animal sacrifice to serve  the spirit or Satan. I must point out here that in Black Magic, most of the time you should return something. For example, if you are performing a ritual to achieve your wants, your wish will be agreed if you offer something in return, thus this goes to the sacrifice offerings. Sacrifice of animal or human is not necessary, some also give fruits, cigarettes and others. Black Magic is dangerous, you do not know what kind of spirit you are communicating, not all are trustworthy! In ritual, Satanic verses are often used, with black candles in the room, etc… The performer has to do a pact with the spirit for the wish to be granted. People who turn to Black Magic usually have a hatred or anger to God based on several reasons. Perhaps their prayers were not accepted to God or simply they have not found a solution to their problems. Moreover, greediness also pushes them to perform Black Magic to become rich, have a job and so on…

Now let’s come to White Magic…which is the contrary of Black Magic! Here, the person will perform it to achieve good thing or to cure someone. White Magic is performed with prayers, to combat evil particularly someone who is possessed, or simply to turn a person to follow good path! It is not necessary to have candles in this kind of magic, but in Asian countries, they often lit incense sticks, perfume the room, wear beautiful clothes etc… Sacrifice may take place in White Magic, nevertheless not through animal or human killing for blood, but to give charity, donations for instance. Prayers to God are the main tools in White Magic ritual, a person can pray heavily, to make his/her wish granted. Exorcism is a well-known example of White Magic as the ritual is to cure someone who is possessed.

Therefore, a person who does Black Magic can perform White Magic as well and vice-versa…It focuses on the same force except the ways and motives are different. I do not recommend people to make pact or whatever…in Black Magic. In fact, some guys I know who performed it, their life became like a hell, some are even hospitalized! In addition, spirits are not trustworthy, if you make a mistakes in ritual, your life may perish in an abyss! Take your responsibility, do not let greediness rape your mind and soul…
