Q: How do you know it is Heaven and not just an optical illusion?

M: I know it, just as you know your wife. If you don’t know something so dear and so clear as your wife, then that is weird. So, we came from Heaven, and the moment we are shown Heaven, we will know that. It’s very easy. Do I look crazy to you in any way? (Audience: No!) OK, then I must have seen Heaven, or else what! The person who sees an illusion acts differently, talks differently and behaves differently, as if he’s a lunatic. A person who sees Heaven is bubbling with life, love, happiness and positive energy. So you can judge by that, but outwardly only. The inside, I will prove to you by sitting down with you. The outside, you can only see so much. But if your heavenly eye’s open, you can see Light around us right now. Does anyone see Light around us? Yes? (Master gestures toward someone in the audience) Oh, thanks a lot! Yes? (Master indicates another person) OK, good! You are not initiated? Thank God! (Master jokes) Otherwise they’ll think I told you to say that. Is it your first time seeing me? Thank you! The first time he saw me, and he sees Light around this physical being already.

Can you believe, can you imagine, what it is like inside when you can even radiate Light outside? So, be that person! It’s in you! You can do that. I and you, we’re the same. I eat the same food; I do the same things. So this is how we can attain Heaven. You’ve heard that the Saints in the past have halos of Light around them? So they must have seen Heaven in order to manifest that. They don’t even manifest it; it just happens. It’s just like, physically speaking, if you’re happy or if you’re in love, it’s written all over your face. They say that! So if you see Heaven, all you radiate is just the Light of Heaven. And it’s not only me! Many of our brothers and sisters, if your eye is open, you see Light around their head, at least around the head if not all over the body. And you can be the same.
