Take a closer look at the list... 9 and 10 are very difficult to attain. Jesus was a 9 and 10.

OK...I'm not god yet, but do try to see things from a whole view.. I look beyond the words and actions of others to see what caused the difference, and it is our course and how we deal with it... and our experiences... we all seemed to start out the same...just like most... But have different experiences...and tragedies.... just like many of them. we .are the same all the same,all all have the same opportunities on how to live this inner and outer live...mostly inner though .....So, maybe an 7/8 would be more appropriate..Not perfect yet? Definably not a 2-4....sorry to say...I've been there. Did enjoy 6 though....still do.

You might be surprised to know that Hell was my home turf form many years. I've only in the last couple years learned how to get out and stay out. Most people will be in the first 6 worlds bouncing from one to the next hundreds of time in a day.

True, but 6 and 7 are also astonishing achievements to accomplish.

lol

Different branches of Buddhism take on the levels of worlds in a different way. Some branches take worlds literaly while others take it as state of mind as opposed to state of being.

Buddhism is the true religion of peace (although it is more of a philosophy rather than religion)

I think most people don't realize that, but that's OK. I'm just trying to introduce some Buddhist philosophy. Tell us what you know.

I am a Nichiren Buddhist, we believe the ten worlds to be a state of mind and body, and that there is only on vehicle not three.

I don't understand, please help me and explain in more detail what you are trying to say.

Would nirvana be considered a world or a state of mind?

Nirvana is another name for heaven or #6

My dog is a 2, I think thats because shes fat ! Whatever.

There were questions about the ten worlds. So I bumped this threat to give people a better place to ask questions.

What's with all the torture?

If you shed the blood of a Buddah you get locked in a box under the ground and constantly burned to death (then revived) for trillions of years.

This is a another good explanation.

Is one of the worlds where you breath under water? I'll choose that one, please.

These are not real worlds, but worlds of the mind.
