Bhajyam Sutra 18
The discipline asks: 'O Lord! are the souls, suffering from the miseries of the lower worlds, of the same kind of feelings?' (Reply) ‘No, this is not so' 'Why?' (Reply) ‘Because the person who indulges in cruel acts is born in inauspicious places like hell and is striken with immeasurable pain. But the person who is not so deeply involved in cruel acts is inflicted with only light pain though born in the inauspicious place like hell’.
