anyone see the pictures of other worlds on nasa.gov that have water land and an atmosphere. (i read somewhere on the internet so who knows how accurate it was) that there are 16 heavenly worlds one could be born into. well was wondering if anyone had more information on these other planets? maybe like pictures of the planet its geology possibly the inhabitants? i know of one called amitabhas blissful paradise please forgive me if i misinterpreted anything. any information or links are much appreciated thanks!!

Nope.

Those are artists depictions of the other worlds, except for the planets and moons in our own system. It's pretty much impossible to get a picture of one because it has a huge glowing star right next to it.

However, we now have evidence from enough planets orbiting stars to know that there are billions of worlds orbiting stars in just our own galaxy that are within the "life zone" where liquid water is possible. It seems impossible that life would not have evolved on thousands of worlds.

The big question, of course, is if conscious life has evolved. Maybe it's also pretty common. On the other hand, on our own planet life went millions of years without consciousness arriving so it seems there's no great evolutionary push to self awareness.

During Master Hui Yuan's lifetime, he saw images of the Western Pure Land three times, the last when he was eighty-three years old. He suddenly saw the image of Amitabha Buddha and his retinue with bright light shining from them. The Buddha told Hui Yuan, "You will be reborn into my Land seven days from now." Indeed, seven days later the master died in peace at the age of eighty-three.

http://www.nasa.gov/topics/universe/features/gliese_581_feature.html this only shows one but ive seen on their site that theyve shown a video with 10 different planets that all had water and land that were all in the habitable zone of their star with the infrared telescope they shot up x years back it is waaaaaay better at detecting planets than hubble is.

The power of infrared telescope is so amazing, and the power of Buddha mind without the aid of infrared telescope has revealed the uncountable planets beyond earth 3000 years ago. Awesomic
