5.8

「爾時獄卒復驅罪人，從於下鬲乃至上鬲，經歷八萬四千鬲中，𢫫身而過至鐵網際，一日一夜爾乃周遍，阿鼻地獄一日一夜，此閻浮提日月歲數六十小劫，如是壽命盡一大劫。五逆罪人無慚無愧造作五逆，五逆罪故臨命終時，十八風刀如鐵火車，解截其身，以熱逼故便作是言：『得好色華清涼大樹，於下遊戲不亦樂乎！』作此念時，阿鼻地獄八萬四千諸惡劍林，化作寶樹，華果茂盛行列在前，大熱火焰化為蓮華在彼樹下，罪人見已：『我所願者今已得果。』作是語時，疾於暴雨坐蓮華上，坐已須臾，鐵嘴諸虫從火華起，穿骨入髓，徹心穿腦攀樹而上，一切劍枝削肉徹骨，無量刀杖當上而下，火車爐炭十八苦事一時來迎。此相現時陷墜地下，從下鬲上，身如華敷遍滿下鬲，從下鬲起，火焰猛熾至於上鬲，至上鬲已身滿其中，熱惱急故張眼吐舌。此人罪故，萬億融銅百千刀輪，從空中下頭入足出，一切苦事，過於上說，百千萬倍。具五逆者，其人受罪足滿五劫。

"At that time, the hell-wardens again drive the sinners from the lower compartment up to the upper compartment, passing through eighty-four thousand compartments, dragging their bodies past to the edge of the iron nets. It takes a single day and night to traverse them entirely. A single day and night in the Avīci hell is sixty minor kalpas according to the count of days, months, and years in this Jambudvīpa; their lifespan lasts a full great kalpa like this. Sinners of the five heinous deeds, lacking shame and remorse, commit the five heinous deeds; because of their sins of the five heinous deeds, when their lives are about to end, eighteen wind-knives, like iron fire-carriages, dismember and slice their bodies. Pressed by the heat, they then say these words: 'If only I could get lovely flowers and cool, great trees to play beneath, would that not be joyful?' As they form this thought, the eighty-four thousand evil sword forests of the Avīci hell transform into jeweled trees, their flowers and fruits luxuriant, arrayed in rows before them. The great, blazing flames transform into lotus flowers beneath those trees. Seeing them, the sinners say: 'What I desired has now borne fruit!' As they speak these words, swifter than a torrential rainstorm, they sit upon the lotus flowers. Having sat for a short while, various iron-beaked insects arise from the fiery flowers; they bore into their bones, penetrate their marrow, pierce their hearts, pass through their brains, and climb up the trees. All the sword-branches shave away their flesh right through to the bone, and countless knife-clubs fall down from above. The fire-carriages, hearth coals, and the eighteen torments simultaneously arrive to meet them. When these signs appear, they sink down into the earth. Rising from the lower compartment, their bodies, like blooming flowers, fill the lower compartment entirely. Rising from the lower compartment, the fiercely blazing flames reach the upper compartment. Arriving at the upper compartment, their bodies fill it entirely. Because the heat and affliction are so severe, they widen their eyes and stick out their tongues. Due to these people's sins, tens of billions of measures of molten copper and hundreds of thousands of knife-wheels descend from the air, entering their heads and exiting their feet. All these sufferings exceed what was said above by hundreds of thousands of times. Those who possess the five heinous deeds endure their punishment for five full kalpas.
