Heaven is another dimension of life.It's another reality.Only spiritual beings exist there.It is not a physical place therefore it may be right before us,but we cannot experience because we have material bodies.

But perception itself is a construction by the mind.
When did you start contructing earth? Therefore, when we perceive 'earth' we are constructing it. 'Mountain' as a word also denotes attitude, relationship, expectations and the like.
Perception cannot create!!!
For example, can a tree exist, independently of man?
A tree doesn't need man to exist!!! Infact the presence of man destroys trees!!![/quote]
I am. Eternal. So when did I create the earth? When I spoke. Perceptions of course, are part of the construction process! For example, your ear can only work within a predefined frequency range. About trees, I am the tree of life. Well, well, you've got quite a complex @tycho. i don't know what to call it.

The decision and consequences are solely yours.

For Man must always live within a complex. While on earth his complex is his self. In heaven, his maker. One who is on earth, cannot name a heavenly complex. Only those in heaven can. Those in heaven have the power to name. So the complex is called 'Man God'.

'Condition' meaning 'abnormal'? Perhaps with a negative connotation? Mmmm! Basis? 'Not me!' 'Unlike me!' So this naming of yours does it have love?

He is the alpha and omega, the same yesterday,today and tomorrow. He exists beyond the construct of time which governs all but Him who created time!!
Heaven and hell are spiritual planes whose properties extend to our plane. Heaven and hell begins here in the minds and hearts of man and extends in the afterlife.
Sanity prevails at last! Reality exists independent of individual perception. A tree does not need you to exist. A rock does not need man to exist.. it is there..and that is reality. Whether you acknowledge its existence or not, it exists..and that is the reality! Live Full Die Empty - Les Brown.

Whether you acknowledge its existence or not, it exists..and that is the reality! 'A rock' means an instance of 'a point of reference called rock'. Where is this point of reference? Mind. All these things you are sensing are determined by your tools of perception, and they have defined ranges of operation.
