### [49.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121.49.36)

燒炙地獄。有十六小地獄。何故名燒炙。將諸罪人置鐵城中。其城火然內外俱赤燒炙罪人。又著鐵樓上。其樓火然內外俱赤。又擲著大鐵陶中。其陶火然內外俱赤。燒炙罪人皮肉燋爛萬毒並至。餘罪未畢故使不死。故名為燒炙。久受苦已出燒炙獄至黑沙獄。乃至寒氷然後命終。為燒炙行墮燒炙地獄。長夜受燒炙苦。

> The Tapana hell has sixteen minor hells. Why is it called Tapana (Scorching)? They lead the sinners and place them into an iron city; that city is ablaze with fire, red-hot inside and out, scorching the sinners. They also place them upon an iron tower; that tower is ablaze with fire, red-hot inside and out. They also fling them into a large iron kiln; that kiln is ablaze with fire, red-hot inside and out, scorching the sinners so that their skin and flesh are charred and rotted, and myriad afflictions arrive at once. Because their remaining retribution is not yet finished, it makes them not die; hence it is called Tapana. Having endured suffering for a long time, they exit the Tapana hell and reach the Black Sand hell, and so forth up to the Cold Ice \[hell\], after which their life comes to an end. Committing deeds of scorching, one falls into the Tapana hell, enduring the suffering of scorching through the long night \[of saṃsāra\].
