According to Hinduism , there are 14 Lokas in total. Among which 7 are above our realm and 7 below.
I am going mention the names from top to bottom.
1. Satya Lok- Where supreme consciousness exists.
2. Tap Lok- Where immortal beings exist who are personification of knowledge. They can access the Satya Lok easily.
3. Jana Lok- Where realised beings live. These are souls having complete access to material world.
4. Mahar Lok- Where great sages exist. These are beings who have gone through severe penance and have become greater than the Devas.
5. Swarga Lok(mistakenly assumed to be heaven)- Where deities like Lord Indra,Gandharvas exist.
6. Bhuvar Lok- Where the Sun and the Planets exist.
7. Bhu Lok- Where we live.
8. Atal Lok- First world below Bhu Lok. Rules by son of Maya(Bala).
9. Vital Lok- Sub Terrenian beings live their lives Mining and collecting gold.
10. Sutal Lok- Ruled by King Bali.
11. Talatal Lok- Where Demon Architect Maya rules.
12. Mahatal Lok- Where hooded nagas exist.
13. Rasatal Lok- Where Danavs and Daityas live.
14. Patal Lok- Nagas with many hoods live. Ruled by Nagraj Vasuki.

Yama is the leader of the Pitris…

Those who conduct Yajnas they go to Pitri loka.

The word ‘Heaven’ is confusing for us.

There is the physical plane, the mental plane and spiritual plane.

In Christianity etc, the spiritual plane is called heaven.

We call the spiritual plane Brahmaloka. The Pitri loka and others like that are heaven.

In Rig Veda, here you can find references to Yama and Pitri Loka.

Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 10: HYMN XIV. Yama.

Just now, Epic said:

If u want to summon Sushanth Singh I would quest somewhere between 6&7

he could be an earth bounded spirit, after spending time here i guess he would go to chandraloka

I always believed there is a realm (I guess pitraloka in this case) like a transition or bench for souls until they find a vacant vessel( contract job) on earth. I doubt if there are these many lokas.

i do think that if we die in this time, there is a possibility we’re are born again in past thretha yuga or dwapara yuga, not necessarily in future.
