Chapter 5. Heaven and Hell
When a sensory receptor and a sensory object meet, an element of the Internal World of Senses occurs. At this juncture, if we think wisely, peace and happiness naturally take their course. However, if we think ignorantly, misery and suffering will inevitably follow. When we are happy, we say that we are in “heaven” and when we feel miserable, we say that we are in “hell”. That is, heaven and hell are states of mind and are momentary depending on our thoughts. If we think wisely, we are on our way to heaven and if we think ignorantly, we pave our way to hell.
Mathematically, think of N4 as a set of transformations with various domains and ranges. Some are from I (the Internal World of Senses) into P (the World of Wisdom) and many are from I into T X U (the World of Ignorance). Still, some are real functionals on P and T X U measuring amounts of happiness (in heaven) and misery (in hell), respectively. Others will be introduced at appropriate time.
