You really only have three choices:

  • You must believe that God made heaven and hell - the Christian and Islamic views;
  • You must believe that God made heaven but that hell does not really exist - the Judaic view;
  • Neither heaven nor hell exists; they are just fairytales invented by religion - the atheist view.

If the first of these choices seems inconceivable, then you are forced to consider each of the other alternatives.

Buddhism- is heaven a happy place?

Yes, Heaven is a happy place in as much that no one really likes to leave heaven. As we cling to our happinesses on Earth, so do we cling to happiness in heaven.

In greek mythology how were heaven and earth formed?

"First there was Chaos, and from Chaos came Night and Erebus (Death). From darkness and from death, Love was born, and with its birth, order and beauty began to banish blind confusion. Love created Life with its companion, Day.Next was the creation of the earth, but no one really ever tried to explain this. It just happened. With the coming of love and light it seemed natural that the earth also should appear. The poet, Hesiod wrote:'Earth, the beautiful, rose up,Broad-bosomed, she that is the steadfast baseOf all things, and fair Earth first boreThe starry Heaven, equal to herself,To cover her on all sides and to beA home forever for the blessed gods.'"Mythology, by Edith Hamilton

What is the story line of the talisman ballet girls solo variation?

The ballet "The Talisman" is set in India. Niriti, daughter of the Queen of Heaven, descends to Earth to experience life as a human, and her mother gives her a star from her crown to act as a talisman, to enable her to return to Heaven. A young Indian Prince falls in love with Niriti, and steals the talisman from her, in a bid to keep her on Earth. Niriti appears to him in his dreams, begging him to return the talisman, and eventually he relents and gives it back to her, and she sadly returns to Heaven, leaving the Prince behind - for of course she has also fallen in love with him! The girl's variation is usually taken from the dream or vision scene. The main boy's part is Niriti's attendant who is assigned by her mother to protect her whilst she is on Earth, but is led astray into drinking with the Prince's entourage. That's the bare bones of the story - of course it is padded out with the exotic royal entourage, and also the scene in Heaven.


What is a heaven?

A Heaven is whatever you want; a paradise. In heaven you are supposed to be happy, with "god(s)". Heaven on earth is a phrased used to explain true happiness on Earth. Most religions believe in a heaven. But in different stages of their lifes. Hindu's don't go to their "heaven" until they have gone up their ladder of reincarnation. Christains, go to heaven when they die, some brances go through purgatory first to weigh your heart in goodness and purity, not like physically purity, but goodness and kindness. xx Heaven can also be a name :)
