It will be those pure souls who in their life before death, came up to the standard of the citizenship of paradise, who will be granted an abode in this perfect world of paradise: a perfect world of eternal comforts and pleasures.

The people of paradise will, therefore, be the souls who have discovered God, and whose greatest concern is the Almighty. They submit only the one God, and devote their lives to improving their intellectual and spiritual abilities to a high degree. They have shunned the life of falsehood and adhered steadfastly to the way of truth, staying away from hypocrisy and remaining resolutely on the path of sincerity. They have adopted the path of honesty throughout their lives; and have, of their own, imposed the divine discipline upon their words and deeds. They reserve their feelings of love and fear exclusively for God.

Their life and death is for truth. They do not live their lives for anything less than the higher cause. Their activities are ‘hereafter’-oriented rather than this world-oriented. They succeed in steering clear of all negative feelings such as hatred, jealousy, prejudice, selfishness and other such shallow thinking, and raise themselves to the highest moral level. They associate themselves with people for the sake of truth and distance themselves likewise for the sake of truth. They give and take for God alone. Their lips open for the truth alone. They follow the way of forgiveness and not of revenge in this world and do not embroil themselves in the attractions of the world, but fix their gaze on the Hereafter in all situations.

Those who discover the Higher Being, that is God, and who are able to turn their natural potential to good account; who are able to awaken their spirituality to such a high degree that they can receive the realization of the Hereafter in the present world itself. While living in this world, they live a God-oriented life and thus become inhabitants of the world of paradise on the conscious plane. They are physically in this world, but psychologically they are in the world of the Hereafter.
