I think you guys mean "Puritan" and they believed that God had already had certain people chosen to go to heaven. So if you weren't one of those people, no matter how many good deeds you can do will ever get you to Heaven.
The Hindu word for heaven is "Swarga". It is believed to be a realm of pleasure and happiness where virtuous souls are rewarded for their good deeds in their previous life.

That if you do good deeds on earth, you treat everyone fairly, and respect everyone's beliefs, you will be guaranteed acceptance to heaven.
Heaven can be described as an Utopia or an place that can only be reached by being good and doing good deeds. Heaven's location is above the clouds that is not visible to the naked eye.
That depends on what your view of hell is. If hell is the place of fiery torment, then you've come to the right place! Hell, it is believed by Catholics etc, is where you go if you've led a bad life - a place of eternal fiery torment. However, purgatory is like a crossroad between heaven and hell - a bit like a junction where you go when you die. Your good deeds and bad deeds are compared and it is "decided" whether you go to heaven or hell.

The Egyptians believed in an Afterlife. If you did good deeds your heart would weigh less than a feather if you didn't do enough good deeds your heart would weigh more. The Egyptian Afterlife god who ruled the Underworld weighed your heart and if it weighed less than the feather on the scale you were permitted to enter the Underworld but if it weighed more, you were rejected.
Souls in round three are judged and sent to either heaven or hell based on their actions in life. This round is sometimes referred to as the final judgment or the last stage of the soul's journey. It is believed to be a critical moment of accountability for one's deeds.
