Maybe heaven can be experienced but I doubt if it can be described; language has limitations.

God is by definition beyond definition.

A man once saw the ocean. A friend asked him to descibe it to him. "Oh, the vastness! The waves! The roar!"

A frog from the ocean once fell into a well. There was another frog who lived its whole life inside the well. "Where did you come from," asked the well frog. "I came from the ocean," he replied. "And how big is this 'ocean'? Is it this big?" he asked, stretching out his little arms. "Oh, no. The ocean is much bigger." At that, the well frog asked, jumping from one edge of the well to the other, "Is the ocean this big, then?" to which the frog from the ocean replied, "No, the ocean is much bigger than this well." The other frog cried out, "That's impossible! Nothing can be bigger than this well!"
