Are mathematical entities real independently from our minds?

I just created a new religion. These are the rules:

•The essence of everything is mathematics

•Mathematical phenomena exist INDEPENDENTLY of our perception and the physical universe

•Everything that makes you who you are is a reflection of a deep-seated mathematical truth.

~Anyone who studies mathematics will go to heaven, because you are mathematics.

Do u think that might be true? Because everything can be explained by math perfectly. I think it is not because math is a great tool, it is because everything is actually a reflection of some mathematical reality. What do u think about that?

I have no desire to convert but if math is how you see the world and choose to see the world, then that’s great. I would recommend reading the “Atlantean Secrets” book series, as they make some spiritual connections to mathematics you might be able to draw inspiration from, as well as the follow-up book “Bleeding Sun.” Best of luck to you.

What is your current religion?

The best label would probably be “spiritualist”

WTF are you babbling about?

You're creating a cult, not a "religion," and a pretty daft one at that.

Mathematics is not a real physical or metaphysical thing according to most worldviews, it's a construct. The whole point of mathematics is to quantify WITHIN the physical universe. It has no purpose outside, as it cannot be quantified.

But "heaven" means a spirit to let people in. So only if followed its rules.
