There is a precious story from Egypt about the Goddess Ma’at, who is the Goddess of truth, balance, justice, and order. Upon leaving this physical world, Ma’at will take a feather from her headdress and weight it against your heart. If your heart weighs more than the feather, then it means your heart is heavy with sorrow, anger, regret, hatred, jealousy, doubts, sadness, worry, fear, and such, so the entrance to heaven is impossible. If the heart weighs less than the feather, then it means that your heart is pure and innocent, and is light enough to reach heaven.We sincerely hope that you would cast off any unnecessary burdens in your heart and become lighter than a feather, not prior to the moment of departing this physical world, but in every moment of your life. Light up your own heart and the hearts of others, so that you may all float upward lighter than a feather and higher into heaven’s bosom without any effort at all. Truly, is there any other way to enter heaven?
