We don't have to die to get into the kingdom of heaven. In fact, it is enough to be perfectly alive. If we breathe in and out carefully and if we hug a beautiful tree, we are in heaven. When we take a conscious breath and are aware of our eyes, our heart, our liver and our non-toothache, we are immediately carried to paradise. There is peace. We just have to touch it. When we are fully alive, we can experience that the tree is part of the sky and that we too are part of the sky.
