stanza translation :
The infernal living beings- they are so hungry that if they are given the entire foodstocks of the entire universe, still their hunger will not be satiated.
They arent given any food in hell.
The reason is they have done such karma, that while eating, they never had any mercy on the living beings that they ate. So in his next birth (in hell) they will have to pay for it
same logic applies about thirst, they don't get to drink either, because in the past they disregarded living beings in fluids as well. These things lead these beings to suffer in hell, out of hunger and thirst.
Hellish souls have to suffer this for a really long time, and at the end of their life in hell, they are born either as humans, or as panchindriya jeev (5 sensed beings)
Once out of hell one cannot become a dev, or 1,2,3 and 4 sensed being. One will either become a 5 sensed animal or a human.
Beings in hell have to suffer this way for many sagars. Sagar is a unit of time
It's description is as given below
- 1)You make a pit, that is 2000 kos (1 kos = 2 miles approx) in length, breadth and height
- 2) fill it with pieces of hair and divide it into infinitesmall bits, and fill the entire pit completely from top to bottom.
- 3)Take out each of these pieces every 100 years.
- 4) The time it will take to get all those hair out to empty the pit is called vyavahar pallay.
- 5) Multiply vyavahar pallay with innumerable digits(asankyat) and it becomes uddhar pallay
- multiply uddhar pallay by another innumberable digits and it becomes addha pallay,
- Finally, multiply addha pallay by 10 crores multiplied by 10 crores and it becomes one sagar
The maximum age of a hellish being is 33 sagar.
The maximum age of a dev is 33 sagar as well
in the first hell, the maximum age of the hellish being is 1 saagar, in the second hell its 3 saagar, in the 3rd hell its 7 saagar, in the 4th hell its 10 saagar, in 5th hell its 17 saagar, in 6th hell its 22 sagar, and in 7th hell its 33 saagar.
The minimum age in the first hell is 10,000 years.
We have gone to hell only animals with 5 senses or human beings can go to hell. 1-4 senses tiryanch cannot go to hell, and even heavenly beings cannot go to hell directly. Any sensed being can go to heaven.
when a person takes birth in hell, he drops down on the ground, and then he hits head first, and bounces on the ground, and he bounces several miles up and down. When the bouncing is finished, he wonders where he came from and what is this horrible place...people come running after him with weapons to kill him, and some of them make him suffer by using their weapons,
and he has to escape from those hellish beings
To save himself, he jumps thru the vetarni nadi, thinking he will be rid of the hellish beings, but the insects there start eating his skin and give him a lot of pain, and later when he goes to find
some peace and rest under a tree, the leaves of the tree start falling, and they are like falling blades that cut his limbs.
This way the hellish being keeps suffering in his entire lifespan. to add to his misery, the
asurdev come down and remind him of the bad things the other hellish beings did to them in the previous birth and makes them fight.
Dev go to hell to make them fight, but there are also some devs who go to actually do some preaching there, to make them learn good things.
Only heavenly beings (devs, there are also asur types of devs to make them fight, and vaimanik dev, if they have had a relationship with some hellish being in prior births to tell the the right things).
After Laxman and Ravan died, they went to hell, and Sita become a Devi, and Ram attained liberation. Sita realized that in her past birth she had intimacy with Laxman as a brother in
law, so she comes down to hell and gives Laxman sermons. From hell, even suicide wont work, you'll be all broken up but won't die.
Human life.
