The hells, which experience cold, also have extraordinary cold. In case any hellish being is taken out from such a hell and laid down on a slab of ice and then covered with ice from all sides, even then he feels some relief. He shall feel such a relief that he will soon go to sleep. From this example, the cold nature of such a hell can be comprehended to a certain extent.
The other troubles caused by nature of the hellish area are also highly dreadful and they have already been mentioned earlier.
The troubles caused by demon gods have been mentioned in aphorisms 25 to 30. Immediately when a living being, who had done sin in earlier life, takes birth in hell, the demon gods become ready to cause tortures of various types. They go on troubling him till he completes his entire long life-span in hell. This torture exists only upto the third hell because the demon gods do not go beyond the third hell. In the fourth, fifth, sixth and the seventh hell there are two types of troubles-the trouble due to the nature of the area and the trouble caused by hellish beings mutually to each other. Such troubles have been mentioned in aphorisms 31 and 32.
A hellish being possesses the fluid power right from birth but this trait becomes the cause of trouble for him and for other hellish beings. The hellish beings in order to protect themselves from the impending troubles transform their body with fluid power but this transformation becomes the cause of greater trouble. They plan for their welfare but it becomes otherwise. Further just as a dog cannot tolerate presence of another dog and jumps at it, attacks it, bites it similarly a hellish beings attacks the other hellish beings with the weapons created by their fluid power. They pierce their body, cut their limbs and cause such a torture that cannot even be thought of. Such a torture has to be endured in all the hells.
In order to know the painful condition of hell, the reader should study the fifth chapter 'Narak Vibhakti' of the first volume of Sutrakritanga. He should also go though 'Narak Dwaar' in 'Brihat-sangrahni'.
