What is the difference between heaven and hell?

A very big industrialist, whose name was talked about in the whole country. Not only in the country but abroad too, he was known as a rich man. One day he went to a saint, and along with his PA, servants, and all the entourage, he reached the saint's ashram. There was the same rich man's arrogance and pride in his gait. But when the saint came in front of him, he bowed a little, but even in that bowing, there was a bit of arrogance.

It was formal. I am such a big man, the whole world recognizes me. Where is a saint? He thought in his mind, but he had to show formality. The saint looked at him and said, What's the matter? The nobleman said, "Maharaj, I have heard a lot about you; you are very famous. And I have a question, and that question has troubled me. You are a self-sacrificing person, you can tell me, and that is why I have come to you with great hope. The saint said, Tell me what the matter is. So that big nobleman said, "Maharaj, I am troubled by a question: what is the heaven and hell that people talk about?" The saint said, looking at him, Are you in the right mind?

What kind of question are you asking? Being such a big man, he asks such questions. This was the first time that nobleman was hearing someone say such a thing; he was not used to listening to it. He used to tell everyone, but today he had to listen to someone. His teeth clenched, and his fists clenched. He got very angry. His bodyguards came forward; they were about to shoot him. Then the saint immediately said, "Look, the door of your hell has opened." The man gestured for his bodyguard with his hand to stop. He understood. He humbly bowed down at the feet of the saint. Then the saint explained to him and said, "Look, the door of heaven has opened." The man understood. The saint explained him further and said, "Sir, heaven and hell are not anywhere else, they are within us. Living in ego, anger, and jealousy is hell. And living in love, humility, and friendship is heaven. We create our own heaven and hell. Just like having enmity is hell, being friendly with everyone is heaven. However, due to ego, attachment, illusion, and anger, one has to face hell. Heaven or hell is not a physical place made somewhere. It is within us. It is a mentality. Living with good thoughts is heaven. Living with bad thoughts and adopting bad thoughts is hell. Heaven is not harming anyone with your body, speech, or mind. And this is the truth. This is life.

That person understood, and he bowed to the saint very humbly. And the saint blessed him. Friends, we have to keep this in mind in our lives; no one's feelings should be hurt because of me. Then, heaven will not be far; it is very close. We can live in heaven. Friends, if you like this, then please comment. Thank you, friends.
