Description
Judaism does not explain plainly what happens to one after death. The after death future is mysterious and has no guidance about what is to come. The only certainty is that each man must die - beyond that we can only guess. There are several heavens In Buddhism, all of which are part of so called illusionary reality. Even staying in Buddhist heaven is temporary. Because of that heaven is not a final destination but rather a limbo before reaching total enlightenment or mental state of Nirvana. Surprisingly enough, early Judaism had no concept of Hell as well, but it had a sort of supernatural place, a grave originally and in later times a Limbo where one becomes finally aware of one's life shortcomings and wrongdoings. The idea of Hell is a highly influential subject to everybody. It does not matter if you believe in it or not, it is always somewhere around; in movies, books, language. Jean-Paul Sartre in his play No Exit explores the idea that "Hell is other people".

Spectacular piece of art!ππ₯π personally I like to think of heaven and hell only as states of mind. And when it comes to religions take at it? I think Rig Veda takes the cake: βThe Truth is one. Sages speak of It by many names.βποΈ All the best from a fellow spiritual fractal artist from NYC!πβ―οΈβοΈπ½π

Another extraordinary Georg Grie painting. Indeed, looking at our human history - and at todays news, J.P. Sartre has a very good point in saying 'Hell is other people'. And one might add that no religion, Saviour, or philosophy has so far made any dent in changing our violent human ways.
