7.14

第五大叫喚地獄。亦有十六小地獄圍繞（大小同前）何故名大叫喚地獄。取彼罪人著大鐵釜中。久置鐵鑊中熱湯涌沸煮彼罪人。又擲大鐵𨫼上反覆煎熬。號咷大叫苦痛辛酸。餘罪未畢故使不死。名大叫喚。久受苦已出大叫喚。乃至寒氷地獄爾乃命終。由習眾邪見為愛網所牽造卑陋行墮大叫喚地獄。

Fifth is the Great Wailing Hell (Mahāraurava). It is also surrounded by sixteen minor hells (their sizes being as previously described). Why is it called the Great Wailing Hell? The sinners are taken and put into great iron cauldrons, kept for a long time in iron pots where boiling water seethes to cook those sinners. They are also thrown onto great iron griddles and repeatedly roasted. They wail and cry out loudly in acrid, excruciating pain. Because the remainder of their sins is not yet exhausted, they are made not to die; hence it is called Great Wailing. Having suffered torment for a long time, they exit Great Wailing and proceed up to the Cold Ice Hell, only then reaching the end of their lives. It is from cultivating various wrong views, being ensnared by the net of craving, and committing base and vulgar deeds that one falls into the Great Wailing Hell.
