Why wait for hell, if you can pinch yourself into heaven now

By zevi770 · November 1, 2013

As I understand, hell is not a punishment, it’s a re-desiring process

In other words, if we were lazy on earth and hence didn’t do good, we are put into the minus .000000000000000000000 freezer in hell and there we really learn to regret being lazy – if we were passionate about lusts, we get to go into the +100000000000000000 cauldron in hell and learn to not lust

So hell is not about punishing, rather changing our desires

Why do we desire what we desire? For there is a pleasure associated to it – as one person who worked with drug addicts told me, people take drugs because it’s pleasurable.

Hence if the same motive suddenly causes pain, then the person stops desiring that desire.

Simply speaking, tell yourself, “for all my desires I am now going to pinch myself” – but its gotto hurt!

Then tell yourself, for not desiring anything (but of course to fulfill Gods will) I won’t pinch myself! – and you’ll pinch your way into heaven on earth; – Well-Done! (Just don’t pinch anyone else: )
