HELL IS IN FINLAND, GRAND CAYMAN OR SOMEWHERE ELSE?

Relative to Hell as underground, there is a section in the book THINKING AND DESTINY which describes the underground environment (which, according to the book is inhabited).

The book also suggests that part of the Spiritual process is to spend a certain amount of "time" in this underground environment.

For those interested in the matters covered, the book
THINKING AND DESTINY is highly recommended by me for its
expansive coverage of a great many subjects.

A table of contents of the book is found at:

word-foundation.com

Relative to DESTINY, Adi Da says: "Attention is destiny, guaranteed", meaning where you habitually put your attention is where your destiny lies.

Here is a brief snippet about what Adi Da has to say about
THINKING:

<<<Chronic, Compulsive, and Obsessive verbal thinking or Abstract conceptualizing (or The Chronic, Compulsive, and Obsessive conceptual Effort, or Search, To Achieve Power Over the world that Appears To Be Devoted To Exploiting its Power Over You) Is A Disease. It Is, Ultimately, A Fruitless or Futile Effort-and it Is A Symptom Of self-Contraction, ego-Possession, and The Absence Of Transcendental, Inherently Spiritual, and (Most Ultimately) Divine Self-Realization. Effective and "Creative" conceptual thinking Is A Generally Useful and Characteristic Sign Of the human being-but When The Efforts (or Searches) Of the conceptually thinking mind Become Compulsive, Obsessive, and Dominant, Such That verbal and Abstract Analytical thought Cannot Be Relinquished At Will, and things and beings Cannot Be perceived as they (Apparently) are (and, Most Ultimately, Divinely Self-Recognized As they Are), Then the thinking being Is Diseased, Bereft Of Wisdom, and Separated From Reality.>>>

So if anyone is interested in visiting the underground worlds, I would recommend at least reading Thinking and Destiny first!

Namaste!
