Many of us have grown up with the idea that living a good life leads to a reward in heaven after death. However, the concept of heaven is deeply personal and varies from person to person. Through discussions with others, I’ve realized that our visions of heaven are unique, reflecting our individual perspectives and experiences.
We are not merely physical beings; we are energy fields interacting with our surroundings. This understanding leads to the insight that while our bodies may perish, our essence or consciousness continues. Each person has distinct receptors that respond to environmental signals, resulting in diverse life experiences. Our consciousness, which is non-physical, plays a crucial role in driving our biological functions.
The notion that we must wait until death to experience heaven is misleading. We are born into a world where we have the power to create our realities. By focusing on positive creation, we can experience heaven on earth. Conversely, negative creation can lead to struggles and challenges.
We are the architects of our lives. If we allow external beliefs to influence us, we might create from a place of fear and limitation. Many people have been conditioned to view life as a struggle, which can lead to self-sabotaging behaviors.
The first seven years of life are critical for programming our subconscious. During this period, we absorb beliefs and behaviors from our families and communities, which shape our future actions. This programming can either support or hinder our goals. For example, individuals from affluent backgrounds may unconsciously adopt success-oriented behaviors, while those from less privileged backgrounds may internalize limiting beliefs.
To transform our lives, we must identify and reprogram our subconscious beliefs. This can be achieved through repetition and practice. For instance, if you wish to cultivate happiness, consistently affirming that you are happy can gradually rewire your subconscious to align with that belief.
Falling in love can be compared to taking a “red pill,” bringing us into a state of heightened awareness and creativity. In this state, we can manifest our desires more effectively. However, when we focus on responsibilities and challenges, we may revert to our subconscious programming, which can lead to negative behaviors.
To maintain the positive feelings associated with love, it’s essential to align our subconscious programming with our conscious desires. By doing so, we can create a life filled with joy, health, and peace.
Ultimately, we have the power to choose whether to continue living by our current programs or to rewrite them. Understanding how our minds work empowers us to take control and create the life we desire.

Take some time to write a journal entry describing your personal vision of heaven. Consider how your experiences and beliefs shape this vision. Reflect on how you can incorporate elements of this vision into your daily life to create your own “heaven on earth.”
Participate in a group discussion about the concept of consciousness as an energy field. Share your thoughts on how this perspective influences your understanding of life and existence. Discuss ways in which this understanding can impact your daily interactions and decisions.
Create a map of your subconscious beliefs by identifying key beliefs that influence your behavior. Analyze how these beliefs were formed and categorize them as supportive or limiting. Develop a plan to reinforce supportive beliefs and reprogram limiting ones through positive affirmations and actions.
Engage in a role-playing exercise where you practice creating positive outcomes in various scenarios. Work with a partner to simulate situations where you consciously choose to focus on positive creation. Reflect on how this practice can help you manifest your desired reality.
Participate in a guided meditation session focused on visualizing your ideal life. Use this time to connect with your subconscious and reinforce empowering beliefs. Consider how regular meditation can help you maintain alignment between your conscious desires and subconscious programming.

We’ve been conditioned to believe that if you live a good life and die, you get a chance to go to heaven. However, heaven is a personal concept; everyone has their own definition. When I discuss this with others, I find that our visions of heaven differ. This realization led me to understand that we are not just physical beings but energy fields interacting with our environment.
What I learned is that there is no true death of who we are; the body may die, but our essence continues. Each of us has unique receptors that respond to different environmental signals, meaning we each experience life differently. Consciousness, which is non-physical, drives our biology.
The belief that we must wait until death to experience heaven is misleading. Instead, we were born into a creative space where we can manifest our desires. When we create positively, we experience heaven on earth; when we create negatively, we encounter struggle.
It’s essential to recognize that we are the creators of our lives. If we allow ourselves to be influenced by others’ beliefs, we may find ourselves creating from a place of fear and limitation. Many of us have been conditioned to believe that life is a struggle, which can lead to self-sabotage.
The first seven years of life are crucial for programming our subconscious. During this time, we absorb beliefs and behaviors from our families and communities, which shape our future actions. This programming can either support our goals or hinder them.
For instance, individuals from wealthy families may unconsciously adopt behaviors that lead to success, while those from less affluent backgrounds may internalize beliefs that limit their potential. This programming operates in the subconscious, influencing 95% of our daily actions, while only 5% of our actions are driven by conscious thought.
To change our lives, we must recognize and reprogram our subconscious beliefs. This can be done through repetition and practice. For example, if you want to cultivate happiness, consistently affirming that you are happy can eventually rewire your subconscious to align with that belief.
Falling in love can be likened to taking a red pill; it brings us into a state of heightened awareness and creativity. In this state, we can manifest our desires more effectively. However, once we start thinking about our responsibilities and challenges, we may revert to our subconscious programming, which can lead to negative behaviors.
To maintain the positive feelings associated with love, we must work on aligning our subconscious programming with our conscious desires. By doing so, we can create a life filled with joy, health, and peace.
Ultimately, we have the power to choose whether to continue living by our current programs or to rewrite them. With the knowledge of how our minds work, we can take control and create the life we desire.
