Experience HeavenA little boy's amazing story of his trip to heaven by Sri VishwanathVajashrava, lived 5000 years ago, in sacred place.  This place was in southern India and he had a son named Nachiketa.  They gave away every possession they owned to attain the divine grace of God.  His boy watched and agreed.  But the point is that we are to also, sacrifice all we love to honor God.Thus his little boy asked and begged to be put to death in honor of God.  Vajashrava did just that with the belief that he will honor God first.The lord of death was YAMA. This was the first man to die and late become the Lord of Death. Since Yama was gone for three days Nachiketa was waiting outside for him.  The boy had no food or water. Excited, Nachiketa greeted Yama and Yama loved the boy's courage and curiosity.Yama said it is not time for you thus sent him back.Before sent back he was granted three wishes:1.  That his father not be angry with the boy and not recognize the boy.  It was granted.2.  Teach me the sacrificial fire when performed gives me my place in heaven the boy asked.  It was granted and named after Nachiketa.3.  The boy wanted to know if death exists or not...and Yama could not answer or grant the boy.  Instead he asked for wisdom that he not love worldly things.The boy only asked for knowledge about what happens after death, knowing he can have immortality.  It is the boys only wish.Yama says, "I am please with your sincerity and boldness, Nachiketa to enquire about "that one thing" which even the most intelligent people avoid in pursuit of personal passions. Your curiosity and sacrifice to give up everything for this priceless knowledge is noteworthy.Yama, tells the boy the secret that what dies with death is not worthy to be mourned and that which does not die with death is worth paying attention to. What we need to understand is that in this story is the destruction is nothing but going back to its source.  But what is the source to which one goes back?We have three things to consider to understand this:* The Sun* Thought about the Sun* and the word Sun*They are all connected."You cannot perceive the external world of objects without thoughts and you can't think of without words.  The word has to exist first before the thought.Then the sound was created before the word so this sound is the first manifestation from "that one thing" and it pervades every object in the universe.  It evolves through the correct pronunciation of the free letters A - U -M....(om...om....om).First we have sound-(matter and or space);1. Then Touch-Air2. Then Form - Fire3. Taste - Water4. Smell- EarthThe author gives wonderful examples in the form of stories and in the end explains "that one thing."  It is in knowing we are intelligent enough to seek the ways of God.  Know that there is a beginning and an ending.  It has all been here before and if we do not believe it we need to research and find the answers for which we seek. 2012 Jackie Paulson
