Spiritual Quotes on Heaven
and Hell
- Hell is your fear projected. Heaven is your
greed projected. - Osho
- O Allah! If I worshipYou for fear of Hell,
burn me in Hell,
and if I worship You in hope of Paradise,
exclude me from Paradise. But if I worship You
for Your Own sake,
grudge me not Your everlasting Beauty. - Rabia
- Actual heaven is the predominance of the
mode of goodness, whereas hell is the
predominance of ignorance. - Uddhava Gita
- Heaven and hell are not very distant, they
are neighbors; only a small fence divides them.
You can jump that fence, even without a gate.
You go on jumping from this to that. In the
morning you may be in heaven; by evening you are
in hell. This moment heaven, that moment hell.
It is just an attitude, just a state of your
mind, just how you are feeling. Many times, in a
single life, you may visit hell, and many times
you may visit heaven. In a single day also. -
Osho
- Hell and Heaven are states of the mind: they
should not be looked upon as being places; and,
though, from the subjective point of view, they
mean a great deal for the individualized soul,
they are both illusions within the greater
illusion of the phenomenal world. - Meher Baba
- Whenever you go against the law of life you
are in hell, and whenever you go in tune with
the law you are in heaven. Heaven means a state
of joy. - Osho
- The inferior devotee says, 'God exists, but
He is very far off, up there in heaven.' The
mediocre devotee says, 'God exists in all beings
as life and consciousness.' The superior devotee
says: 'It is God Himself who has become
everything; whatever I see is only a form of
God. It is He alone who has become maya, the
universe, and all living beings. Nothing exists
but God.' - Sri Ramakrishna
- Whenever you are surrendered to existence,
whenever you live in trust, love, prayer, joy,
celebration, you are in heaven. - Osho
- Hell and heaven are not geographical,
remember it. It is just a metaphor to explain
something psychological. Hell is the state of
the mind which is in deep misery -- of course,
created by your own doings. All the dust that
you have been throwing against the wind falling
on yourself, that is hell -- all the wrong that
you have been doing to people coming back to
you. You have to reap the crop because you had
sown the seeds. If you sow seeds of poison you
will have to reap poison. It is so simple: AES
DHAMMO SANANTANO -- this is the eternal law. -
Osho
