經律異相 50.39

50.39

第六第七熱大熱地獄。中有二大銅鑊。鹹沸水滿中。羅剎獄卒以罪人投中。脚上頭下骨節解零。以釵釵出冷風吹活復投炭坑中。或著沸灰中。從灰中出放熱沙中。又以膿血而自煎熬。從炭坑出投之焰床強驅令坐。眼耳鼻口及諸毛孔一切火出。此人宿世惱亂父母師長沙門婆羅門諸善好人。惱令心熱今受熱地獄報。或有前世煮殺生繭。或生爛猪羊。或以木貫人腹而生炙之。或焚山野及諸聚落佛圖精舍及天祠。或推眾生著火坑中。故生此地獄。阿毘地獄縱廣四千里。其處最深。獄卒羅剎從頭剝皮乃至其足。以五百釘釘其身體如挓牛皮。熱鐵火車躒其身。驅入火坑令抱炭出。利刀劍矟飛入身中迷悶萎熟。或顛匐墮落。此人宿行多造大惡。五逆重罪斷善根。法言非法非法言法。破因破果憎嫉善人。入此地獄受罪最劇（出大智論略其小同取其尤異）。

The sixth and seventh are the Tapana and Pratāpana hells. Within them are two great copper cauldrons full of boiling brine. Rākṣasa hell wardens throw sinners into them feet up and heads down, their bones and joints disjointed and scattered. Forking them out with forks, a cold wind blows and revives them, whereupon they are thrown again into pits of hot coals, or placed in boiling ashes. Taken out of the ashes, they are put on hot sand, and they stew and fry in their own pus and blood. Taken out of the coal pits, they are thrown onto flaming beds and forced to sit; fire bursts from their eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and all pores. In past lives, these people harassed and distressed parents, teachers, elders, śramaṇas, brāhmaṇas, and good, fine people, vexing them and causing their minds to heat up; now they suffer the retribution of the Tapana Hell. Or in previous lives they boiled and killed living silkworm cocoons; or scalded living pigs and sheep; or skewered human bellies with wood and roasted them alive; or burned mountains, wilds, villages, stūpas, monasteries, and shrines to deities; or pushed living beings into fire pits: therefore they are born into this hell. The Avīci Hell is four thousand li in length and breadth; its location is the deepest. Hell warden rākṣasas flay their skin from head to foot and pin their bodies with five hundred nails, like stretched cowhide. Hot iron fire-carts run over their bodies; they are driven into fire pits and made to carry hot coals out. Sharp knives, swords, and lances fly into their bodies, leaving them dazed, faint, withered, and cooked; or they stumble and tumble down. In past actions, these people committed many great evils: the heavy offenses of the five heinous crimes, severing their wholesome roots; claiming that the Dharma is not the Dharma, or that what is not the Dharma is the Dharma; destroying cause and effect; and harboring hatred and jealousy toward good people. Entering this hell, they suffer the severest retribution (extracted from the Dà zhìdù lùn, omitting minor similarities and selecting the most striking).
