The feeling of pain due to land of the hell goes on increasing gradually as one moves from first- hell to the second and so on. The mutual feeling of pain is of two types-one given by physical contact of the body and the other by weapons. The hellish beings go on fighting among themselves. The hellish beings who are of wrong perception (faith) fight fiercely among themselves due to their ignorance. They cause pain to others. Those hellish beings who are of right perception (faith) believe that the troubles they face are the result of their own Karmas of earlier life-span. So they bear it calmly. So the feeling of pain of hellish beings of wrong perception is more and more dreadful while the pain of hellish beings of right perception is feeble.
Fifteen types of paramadhami gods (of demon category) cause pain for their enjoyment. They exist only in first three hells. In Sutra 23, the feeling of pain due to the nature of land above has been discussed.
Always there is pitch dark in hell. There is not even minor light of the moon, the sun, planets, constellations and the like.
There are meat, blood, mucus, marrow, and other foul substances scattered all around in heaps in the hell. They produce extreme hatred and dejection. Meat, blood and the like are found only in physical (audarik) body and the human beings and five-sensed animals do not exist in hell, still the matter in hell has an unusual quality of transforming itself into foul substances. So there is always bad striking smell there which creates a great sense of frustration.
Some area in hell is extremely cold while some area is extremely hot. The area which is cold is innumerable times colder than a block of ice and the area which is hot is much more hot than a drastically burning fire.
In such hells, the hellish being continuously undergo most frightening and shocking tortures for a very long period every moment. The hellish beings bear pain of ten types. There is no one present there to show mercy, compassion or consolation towards them. Further there are demon (paramadhami) gods who give them most dreadful tortures and they have been termed here as messenger of death (yam purush). Such yam purush are of fifteen types. They transform themselves into different frightening shapes and experience enjoyment in providing extreme tortures to the hellish beings. They are as follows
