佛說佛名經 7.20

7.20

Soon after, Baoda entered yet another hell, called the Fire-Elephant Hell. In that hell there were naturally fire-elephants. The bodies of these elephants were exceedingly huge; fire burned upon their bodies, spewing forth smoke and flames together, and fire also blazed from their mouths and eyes. When the sinners saw them, being crowded and pressed, they wailed and were unwilling to advance. The jailer yakṣas pitchforked them onto the elephants; the elephants leapt and bucked, so the sinners fell to the ground, where fires blazed and scorched their bodies. In a single day and a single night, they died a thousand times and were reborn a thousand times, died ten thousand times and were reborn ten thousand times. Emerging from the hell, if born among humans, their bodies would be incomplete—eunuchs, hermaphrodites, impotent men, or barren women.
