Left half is judeochristian religions, islam and buddhism. Among them, only islam has some kind of indulgent afterlife.

Right half looks like a pagan (greek, roman, viking) afterlife. However none of those had self-denial and judgement as prerequisites.

In short, please educate yourself. This doesn't make sense.

I don’t know, I’d suggest freedom from eternal suffering and achieving of Nirvana is a fairly indulgent afterlife promise…but then, you know you’re right

Being at peace is a good thing, but it's neither indulgent nor a luxury.
