A priest told me a true thing. When he was about to graduate from the seminary, the teacher said to them: "You have received several years of theological education, and you already have a good understanding of the state of heaven. Before graduation, I hope that each of you will take turns to report what you think Heaven." These students who were about to become priests stood up one by one and reported the heaven in their minds.During the reporting process, everyone became more and more panicked as they heard it. No two people had the same vision of heaven. When all the students finished their reports, the classroom fell into complete silence, because no one was sure that their paradise was right.

The teacher couldn't help laughing when he saw how serious everyone was, and said to the students: "Everyone has a different view of heaven, which is normal, because heaven is the yearning of the heart, and there is no fixed form. Heaven is different now, not to mention human affairs, so when you become priests, you should stay away from arguments and focus on arousing people's yearning." The priest said that after hearing this passage, he lost interest in arguing with others. I listened to what the priest said, and never argued with others again. I think that although everyone is different in heaven, the yearning of the heart can influence and circulate each other.
