Chapter 3 - Sutras 1-6
When cold weather arrives, they can easily sleep in comfort.
Their activities are also of an opposing nature in the sense of negativity due to their karma. They become anxious due to suffering and make efforts to escape it, but they end up in an opposite situation. In pursuit of happiness, they find themselves faced with misery. They try to create auspiciousness through their actions, but instead, they continue to create inauspiciousness.
What does "the inauspicious aspects, starting from the primary negativity, mean in terms of permanence?"
30 - In terms of permanence, there is a continuity. Through the karma of movement, birth, body, and other factors, the feelings starting from hellish existence remain inauspicious throughout life; it never changes even for a moment, nor does it turn auspicious even for a moment.
First, the suffering from cold and heat in hell is indeed tremendous; however, the suffering of hunger and thirst is even more horrifying. The pain of hunger is so severe that even consuming everything one can does not provide peace; rather, the flames of hunger become more intense. The pain of thirst is so great that no amount of water quenches it. In addition to this suffering, there is even greater agony inflicted through mutual hostility and fighting. Just as the cat and the mouse, or the snake and the frog are natural enemies, so too are the beings in hell considered natural enemies.
