Advaita Vedanta - What Happens After Death?

Rodriguez says Advaita Vedanta teaches that enlightenment is to be achieved here and now, not after death. If you are a good devotee, you will go to the heaven of your choice, he writes. Rodriguez: Nachiketa's father was double cheating by giving away all his wealth in order to perform rituals which would have led him to hell. He also cheated himself because he didn't know how to do these rituals perfectly - as Rishi did.
