How did ‘Vedic man' think about the destiny of man after death and related ethical issues? That heaven was the abode of the gods was undisputed, but was it also accessible to man in his pursuit of immortality? Was there a realm of the deceased or a hell? What terms were used to indicate these ‘yonder worlds'? What is their location in the cosmos and which cosmographic classifications are at the root of these concepts?. The articles by Henk Bodewitz collected in this volume, deal with these issues on the basis of a systematic philological study of early Vedic texts.
