The original meaning of hell is the place where the path of the heart is destroyed, the place of misfortune, the place where those who have committed the five crimes of Antis and done the ten ferocities of the top grade go to, where they suffer and are tormented. Among the three ferocious paths, namely, the hell path, the livestock path, the hungry ghost path, hell is the path of fire, which means that this path is the journey where evil people are roasted by fiery fire (as shown in fig 13.1.1-24).

13.1.1.1 Five Crimes of Anti

The Five Anti(-s) are patricide, matricide, bleeding god’s body, killing an Ararat, and destruction of the production of godly trinity. People are generally raised by their parents, and when they kill their parents, they destroy their inner environment and suffer from mental illness, which means they fall into hell.

Why does bleeding God’s body also fall into hell? God's appearance (cf. 11.4.1, Color Node) is a Big Seed, i.e., a default model of human cognition, and when there is a change in the Big Seed, everything created according to it changes with it; therefore, a human who sees a bleeding god will cause a mental disorder (i.e., falling into hell). And, stealing, destroying, and slandering the permanent objects of Gods and Buddhas are also considered as crimes of Bleeding God. The permanent objects of Gods and Buddhas are such as shrines, Buddha statues, temples, and godly vessels, etc.

To destruct the production of godly trinity is to destroy God's cause of making man, to make God's business of making Adam and Eve fail. For examples of God's success in making man see section 15.3, Human Sky Fruit, and Chapter 18, The Sun Stone.

Illustration 13.1.1-23 shows a Tlaloc (Gold Boy, Adam) in hell. A woman pulling a rope on the side of the statue indicates that Tlaloc realized that the reason for his fall into hell was that he had a fight with his girlfriend (Chalchiuhtlicue, Eve), offended the goddess. He then realized that the "five Anti crimes and ten evils" were all violations of natural law and the reverse operation of mind mechanisms, which are the reasons for falling into hell (i.e. mental illness). He extended this principle to 250 precepts and obtained "3,000 Majesties and 84,000 Enchantments” (see Section 16.2), that is, he became enlightened and became a Buddha.

13.1.1.2 Top Ten Ferocities

This article identifies the hellish interest in terms of the three aspects of the escalation to environments of heart, the escalation to vexatious heart, and the escalation to affairs.

1. Escalation to the psychological environments, such as killing father, killing mother, bleeding God, killing Ararat, breaking the production of godly trinity; and destroying or stealing religious permanent relics, deceiving leader of the state, father, and teachers, etc.

2. Escalation to vexatious heart, such as extremely heavy irritable entanglement, extremely ferocious hate, and indignation, etc.

3. Escalation to affairs, such as again and again killing sentients, again and again stealing and robbing, again and again being heretical, accumulating days and months without repentance, etc.

To summarize, the ferocious karmas that arise purely from the discriminative view muddles are called the Top Ten Ferocities, and it is the cause of hell.

13.1.1.3 Eight Cold and Eight Hot Hells

There are eight cold great hells, eight hot great hells, and 108 temporary supplement hells. Eight cold and eight hot great hells, each has its own families and affiliations, categories are countless. The sentient beings in the prisons, depending on the severity of their karma makings, experience uncertain. Those who have committed serious crimes suffer dozens of death-and-alive disasters in one day. Their lifespans are uncertain, the extremely long one can reach a catastrophe.

Why do hell interests have such a long lifespan? As mentioned earlier, what the world is talking about is karma, and karma infects each other, can survive for tens or hundreds of years. For example, traditions (also karmas) can be passed down for thousands of years.
