Your physical body lives by the laws of gravity, Your soul on the other hand is limitless. My experience is that my soul can live in heaven even if my physical body is not living in a pleasant envirovement. Your soul if you have reach some level where you live in the dominion of love it really does not matter where you are, I can live right in the middle of hell my soul will still be in heaven. There's nothing wrong with this earth, it serving us 24/7 . I do not believe you are going to ascend physically anywhere,it will grow old and die, or will cease to exist. Your soul is another matter altogether. Theories and thoughts abound the reality in my opinion is simpler but much more profound. We are all in this mess together, make the best of it while you can. You cannot run away from your physical envirovement even if you go to Mars if your soul is suffering a hellish like existence it will continue no matter where you are in the galaxy. The experience of heaven lies within you, you control your experience. A perfect example of that is Mandela, Ghandi. The key to heaven on earth and beyond lies within your heart, turn the key and open the door.
