The 31 PLANES of EXISTENCE | Buddha’s Map of Consciousness

Описание: 🔍 YOU’RE NOT GOING TO THE 31 REALMS... YOU’RE ALREADY IN THEM

What if the 31 realms of Buddhism were never meant to describe the afterlife… but your inner life?
Buddhism's 31 realms of existence aren't waiting for you after death—they're the psychological worlds you're cycling through right now. Ancient Buddhist texts describe 31 distinct planes of consciousness, from hell realms to formless states, and modern psychology is only beginning to catch up to what the Buddha mapped 2500 years ago. This isn't mythology. This is you.

This video reframes the 31 realms of Buddhism not as distant heavens and hells, but as lived psychological worlds shaped by craving, aversion, and confusion — the same forces driving modern anxiety, addiction, and burnout.
