The Aliya Metai is the next incarnation of Buddha, referred to as Phra Jehova by the Christians. People who make donations and merit will be born at the same time as the Aliya Metai comes. Those who make a lot of merit will be reborn in heaven. If one has killed oxen and buffalo, one will reborn immediately on this earth. What we kill in this life will kill us in the next.
