GOD AND THE LIFE HEREAFTER

Paradise. Those who arrive in the Hereafter in a nontrained state will be unable to use the opportunities available there. They will be wholly deprived of fulfilment. No harsher recompense could be conceived of than this. If a man lives only in his ‘today’—wallowing in the pleasures of this world—and dies in his ‘today’ as well, he leads an animal-like life and dies an animallike death. But, on the other hand, a truly successful man leads the life of ‘today’ in such a way that his ‘tomorrow’—the eternal phase of life after death, is full of joy. Only such a man can be called a truly successful man. PARADISE: MAN’S DESTINATION Those who develop themselves according to the divine standards in the present world will be settled in the ideal world of Paradise in the Hereafter. Dr Alexis Carrel was born in France in 1873. After his higher studies, he spent most of his career in the USA.
