He was probably referring to the idea of reaching somewhere further via the rainbow or the Milky Way. Again, this should not be taken literally.
I really liked this part: “In the oldest religious systems, as recorded in written sources, the afterlife is represented as an undifferentiated gloomy realm without sunlight and joys, most often placed in the lower tier of the three-tiered world (heavenly – earthly – underground), tabooed for naming and referred to euphemistically.” The following part is less interesting. But I liked how the division into three worlds appears again: “In monotheism.

Everything else will be erased, and on this rough plane, where we have lived and are now leaving, new people will develop and be nurtured.
“In most known religious traditions of antiquity, earthly existence was perceived merely as preparation for a person’s transition to the afterlife. The concept of eternal life was associated with posthumous judgment and the idea of two afterlife paths for a person – one of bliss or one of sorrow. The ancient Egyptian view of death was optimistic: there was almost a complete absence of fear of death, and the reward for the righteous was eternal bliss. According to the beliefs of the ancient
