नरक नारकीय जीवों के कोलाहल से उनकी हलचल से भरा हुआ है । वहाँ अत्यधिक शीत से आर्त प्राणी अपनी ठंडक दूर करने के लिए अत्यधिक प्रदीप्त- तेज जलती हुई अग्नि के निकट जाते हैं । वह अग्नि अत्यन्त दाहक होती है। उसमें वे जलने लगते हैं, जरा भी सुख नहीं पाते। उस आग में वे लगातार जलते हैं, उन्हें बड़ा दाह होता है । तथापि परमाधामी देव खूब गरम किया हुआ तेल उन पर छिड़क कर उन्हें दग्ध करते हैं ।

अनुवाद • जब कभी किसी नगर का विध्वंस होता है, तो वहाँ के लोगों का दुःख वश बड़ा कोलाहल होता है । वैसे ही उस नगर में कोलाहल सुनाई देता है, बड़े कारूणिक शब्द सुने जाते हैं, जिनके मिथ्यात्व आदि कर्म उदीर्ण- उदय प्राप्त है, जो पाप कर्म का फल देने की अवस्था में उपस्थित हैं, वे परमाधामी देव नारकीय जीवों को बड़े उत्साह के साथ पुनः पुनः पीड़ा देते हैं ।

## Hell Division Study

**Commentary:**

The text 'tasmincha' in the sutra clearly describes the place of great torment, hell. It is filled with the commotion of the hell-bound beings. Those who are tormented by extreme cold seek relief in the intensely hot fire. They are burned in the fiery fortress, finding no solace. They are constantly consumed by the fire, experiencing great pain. Even though they are already suffering, the hell-keepers further torment them by burning them with extremely hot oil and fire. ||17||

**Commentary:**

Hell is a place of extreme torment. The sutra-maker highlights its characteristics by saying:

Hell is filled with the commotion of the hell-bound beings. Those who are tormented by extreme cold seek relief in the intensely hot fire. They are burned in the fiery fortress, finding no solace. They are constantly consumed by the fire, experiencing great pain. Even though they are already suffering, the hell-keepers further torment them by burning them with extremely hot oil and fire.

**Verse 18:**

**Shadow:**

And it is heard, like the sound of a city being destroyed, the words of sorrow are uttered there. Those who have ripened karma, those who have ripened karma, again and again they torment them with great force.

**Translation:**

When a city is destroyed, there is a great commotion of the people due to their sorrow. Similarly, in that city, a commotion is heard, sorrowful words are uttered. Those whose false beliefs, etc., karma has ripened, who are in the state of experiencing the fruits of their sinful karma, they, the hell-keepers, torment the hell-bound beings with great enthusiasm, again and again.

**Commentary:**

The word 'se' in this verse means 'ath' (then). After that, the terrifying roar of the hell-bound beings, who are being tormented by the fierce hell-keepers, is heard, like the sound of a city being destroyed. In hell, words filled with sorrow are uttered, such as "Oh mother! Father! I am in great distress, I am an orphan, I have no master, I have come to you for refuge, save me!" etc. Those whose karma of false beliefs, laughter, and sensual pleasures has ripened, they, the hell-keepers, torment the hell-bound beings with great enthusiasm, again and again, causing them unbearable suffering of various kinds. ||18||
