Q199. Is Eternal Damnation advocated by Sanatan-Dharma?

Absolutely not. Sanatan-Dharma is the only religion which does not teach that people go to hell eternally and burn in a fire and suffer. Based on Sanatan-Dharma, nobody goes to eternal hell, eventually every single soul goes back to the spiritual manifestation and lives in complete bliss with no old age, no disease, no death, no misery of any kind. If you truly believe in following a religion where the God is proven to be the most merciful, compassionate, forgiving, and loving. Then you only have one choice, Sanatan-Dharma. What Kind of a Person Would Want to Burn Anyone Eternally? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Please place your hand over a fire for 30 seconds. How does it feel? Could you burn someone for 30 seconds? Could you burn someone for 1 minute? Could you burn someone for 1 hour? Do you have the heart to do this? Could you burn someone for 1 month? Do you have the heart to do this?

6. 7. 8.

Could you burn someone for 1 year? Do you have the heart to do this? Could you burn someone for 20 years? Do you have the heart to do this? What would you call someone who burns people for millions of years (eternally)? The most merciful? Most loving? Most forgiving? A monster?

I hope you realize that even a fire dragon would not be able to burn a single person for long. Even he would have the heart to stop at some point. Do you think the most merciful person, God, would burn anyone eternally? Based on many Bhagavad-Gita verses, Lord Krishna orders compassion for all living beings. This is because, all living beings are His children.
