In the superiority of the six places, the intention is to show that in the hells, from top to bottom, the bodily size becomes progressively larger, increasingly supple and tender, the instruments of suffering become progressively more numerous, the duration becomes progressively longer, and discrimination is progressively lost. Not knowing their own past karma, they instead direct anger at the hell wardens; because of their progressive foolishness, it is called 'without discrimination'. The vessels of suffering progressively increase, and suffering becomes increasingly severe. As for 'vessels of suffering', it means that because of having created much evil karma in the past, the suffering experienced is even more extensive; thus, evil karma is called the supporting vessel. Or, the vessel of suffering is the supporting physical body: because of the increase in the suffering body as described above, suffering becomes progressively greater. Pleasure is the opposite of suffering: where there is discrimination, one can know past karma, \[recognize that\] one has obtained the present good fruit, and further cultivate goodness, so that the fruit of pleasure thereby increases. If one says that pleasure is obtained naturally through oneself and not through past karma, then since goodness would gradually diminish, pleasure would quickly cease; therefore it is not superior. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.100](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2.100) - [Next: 2.102](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2.102) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829~en-mt.2.101) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [瑜伽論記](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1828.2.64) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2.101](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.2.101) · Pramāṇa
