Don't feel bad, Everyone is attracted to that sort of promise, but if this is the way you are looking for enlightenment or heaven, you are not going to find it.
You don't 'find' enlightenment, you gradually aquire it [or earn it or learn it], like the way evolution gradually adds sensory devices and transportation abilities to life forms. This is real life now, we only have one chance to do stuff.
AS for heaven, maybe it would be the same - for those who can only relate to life this way - you gradually aquire the "heaven points" thru good deeds as you go thru life, or just don't mess your Karma negatively as you go thru life. There isn't any special phrase or idol or even knowledge in a book anywhere that can replace the reality "what happens because of your choices" as you go thru life.
Sorry about the misleading aspect of this thread... but we might need to be reminded "why are you looking for it this way? "
