Spiritual Practice - I. LAMA
● Clear heavens, formed by steadfastness (shanti), here dwells Trimurti (Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva), aka Ishvara, aka the Almighty from the "Revelation of John the Theologian";
● Heaven of Beauty, formed by praising (prashansa), here dwells Vishnu (early Hindu);
● Heaven of Light, formed by compassion (karuna), when a person is reborn, this world appears bright silver;
● Holy heavens are formed by Holy love (maitri), archangels live here, during rebirth this world seems bright golden. The Creator rules the holy heavens. The Creator, God the Father from the New Testament, Yahweh, Brahma (early Hindu), Ahura Mazda are one and the same. The early Hindu Brahma does not always see the gods above him, just as people, for example, are not able to see any gods at all. Because of this ignorance, Brahma and his entourage have the illusion that Brahma is the highest god in the entire universe. This misconception influenced the fact that the followers of the Abrahamic religions (with little clarity for themselves) endowed Brahma with the properties of the Absolute and worship him as the Absolute. The same, in principle, can be said about Allah in Islam. The idea of monotheism that one should worship the highest god alone is, of course, correct and progressive. However, the consequence of this idea of monotheism, that there are no other gods besides the highest god, is a mistake, a sad delusion.
⦿ Physical world
● Heavens of the Physical world (earthly heaven, material heaven, "earthly atmosphere") is formed by contentment. Angels, guardians, fairies, devas, elves live here. In the earthly heavens, most of the gods consider the satisfaction of desires to be the meaning of life. The world is connected with the ajna chakra. The tamas energy prevails here. When a person is reborn, this world appears white, slightly tinted with various shades. In the sutras, the material heavens are often divided into six levels. The first heaven (first level) is the highest. Vashavartin is located above all in the first material heavens (Zeus, Ra, the Only Ruler or the Only God from the Old Testament can be equated with him), he lives the longest, the most powerful and happy and joyful and enthusiastic compared to all other devas. By worshipping Vashavartin and making donations to him, the other devas accumulate merit in this way. In the second heaven, Sunirmita is the ruler. The second heaven is the world of devas enjoying their magical creations, they can create anything for their own pleasure. The third heaven is the heaven of Tushita. These heavens are distinguished by a deep knowledge of the law of Truth. The fourth heaven is the heaven of Metempsychosis or the heaven of the god Yama. Some religions mistakenly raise the Pit too high, and some also equate it with the Devil. The word "pit" – although it means death, but the face is completely different. The god Yama (Emma, Ymir, Suyama, Varuna) is a judge who ensures that the new birth of souls takes place in accordance with their accumulated karma. The fifth heaven is the heaven of the Thirty-Three Gods. The ruler of this world is Indra (Shakra, Sakka). For his great ability to rule the world, he is also called a Capable God. The sixth heaven is the heaven of the Four Rulers. The four Rulers correspond to the four cardinal directions. The sixth heaven (sixth level) is the lowest material heaven.
● Asuras; superhumans, demigods, demons. The world is formed by pride. In the world of Asuras, pride is revered as a virtue. The world is connected with the Vishudda chakra. Rajas energy prevails here. When a person is reborn, this world appears red. In European culture, little is known about the levels of asuras and pretas, therefore, often, when describing various spiritual experiences, they are all en masse placed in one common world, the world of hell. Although this is a significant mistake. Asuras come to hell just as a service, but this does not mean that they belong to that level of hell. For comparison, we can give the following illustration: people come to the forest, which in fact is the animal world, but does not belong to the animal world. For comparison, we can give the following illustration: jailers in the world of people are the most ordinary capable citizens, despite the fact that they are physically in prison, in contrast to the prisoners deprived of free movement of this prison. So here are some asuras and some material gods, including the god Yama, including Mara, they visit hell as jailers, but not because they are tied to hell, but because they do their socially important work there: they wash the karma of souls that have fallen into this hell. A variety of aliens that often appear on our flying saucers are also Asuras. The supreme ruler of the asura world is the Devil. Devil, Mara, King Mar, Prince of Darkness – it's all the same. The devil is not the supreme ruler of the material world (Vashavartin), as is erroneously believed in some religions. Also, the Devil is not, as it is supposed to be in the vast majority of sources, a deva from either the higher or the lower material heavens. Such a delusion is mostly due to the fact that Mara, appearing in various visions to people, prefers to overestimate her real level, prefers to pretend to be the ruler of absolutely the whole world (he is not really the ruler of the world at least a little – this is a deliberate lie, deceit, bluff). To throw dust in the eyes, to pretend to be higher gods, Mara and his servants are driven by irrepressible pride, vanity. Mara is the greatest liar in the entire universe. It is no coincidence that he is also called Satan. Satan means a slanderer of the Truth. The one who says about the Truth, that it is not the Truth. And about not the Truth he says that
