At the edge, there is a tree of iron Shalma Mountain. Likewise, there is one each in the southwest, northwest, and northeast. Among them, the first is the pit of fire: When those whose karma of Hell Avici (Tibetan: དམྱལ་བ་མནར་མེད་) has lessened come out, they see a dark pit of fire from afar and happily go towards it. As a result, they fall into a pit of ashes and burning flames, their flesh and bones are burned, and they suffer greatly. The second is the swamp of rotting corpses: Similarly, they see a river from afar. Because they were roasted in a fire for a great kalpa (Tibetan: བསྐལ་པ་ཆེན་པོ་) in the past, they are extremely thirsty and happy to see water. They go to drink it, but where is there any water there? They fall into a swamp filled with rotting human corpses, horse corpses, dog corpses, etc., emitting a foul odor and swarming with maggots, sinking up to their heads. Worms with sharp iron beaks eat them, causing great suffering. The third is the plain of hair-razor blades: Again, after escaping from there, they see a pleasant green plain. They go towards it, but encounter a plain of weapons. The entire ground is covered with sharp, red-hot iron stakes growing like grass. If they place their right foot on it, the right side is pierced; if they place their left foot on it, the left side is pierced. When they lift their foot, it heals, but when they place it down, it is cut as before, causing great suffering. The fourth is the forest of swords: Again, after escaping from there, they see a pleasant forest and happily run towards it, but where is there any pleasant forest there? They encounter a forest of sword leaves. Many swords grow like leaves on the iron trees, and when the wind blows, their bodies are cut into pieces. Then, they are reattached as before and experience the suffering of being cut. The iron Shalma Mountain: is the place where immoral monks, those who break their vows, those who have lost their celibacy, and those who engage in perverse sexual conduct are born. Due to the force of karma, when they arrive at the terrifying iron Shalma Mountain, they see a companion who used to have affection for them calling them from the top of the mountain. They go towards them, and all the leaves that grow on the iron tree point downwards, piercing their bodies. When they reach the top of the mountain, crows and vultures peck at their eyes. Again, they see someone calling them from the foot of the mountain. They go towards them as before, and all the leaves point upwards, piercing them from their chest to their back. When they reach the foot of the mountain, iron men and women

因为（身体）无法忍受，就拥抱在一起，把头埋在里面，蹲坐着，结果从两边的脸颊流出灰白色的脑浆等等，感受着痛苦。像这样，是八热地狱。外加十六个近边地狱。对于铁的娑罗树等等的痛苦，自己要好好地思维。然后到僻静的地方去，闭上眼睛，观想自己真实地生于地狱的处所。当恐惧和痛苦的景象如实生起的时候，（心想）我虽然现在没有生在那里，仅仅是把那里的痛苦放在心上，就已经有如此的恐惧和痛苦了。现在生在那里的众生，数量数不清。那些全部都是自己前世的父母。今生的父母和亲友等等，很多死去的人，也不能确定他们没有生在那里。那些处所里出生的 主要原因是嗔恨的业。我们自己也在今生和前世积累了无数的烦恼和嗔恨的业，所以来世一定会生在地狱的处所。因此，现在自己得到了暇满的人身，见到了具相的喇嘛，听到了甚深的窍诀，在这个可以成就佛果的时候，要常常想着，以后一定要努力不生到恶趣的处所。对于以前所造的恶业，要以强烈的后悔心忏悔，并且发下猛烈的誓愿，以后宁可丧命也不造会生到地狱的业。要对现在生在那里的众生修强烈的慈悲心。要祈愿他们全部都立即从恶趣的处所解脱，等等，要修持圆满前行、正行、后行三者。第二，八寒地狱是：共同之处是，地基和周围的一切都在雪山和冰块之中。在只有暴风雪肆虐的地方，赤身裸体，被寒冷的痛苦折磨，身体上冒出水泡，砰砰地破裂，这就是 疱疮狱。那些水泡破裂后变成伤口，这就是疱裂狱。无法忍受寒冷的刺痛，牙齿打颤，发出“索塔塔”的声音。不停地发出哀嚎，发出“阿秋秋”的声音。因为声音嘶哑，发出微弱的

Because (the body) cannot bear it, they hug each other, bury their heads inside, and squat, resulting in grayish-white brain matter flowing from both cheeks, etc., experiencing suffering. Like this, there are the eight hot hells. Plus sixteen neighboring hells. Regarding the suffering of the iron Salmali trees, etc., one should contemplate well on one's own. Then, go to a secluded place, close your eyes, and visualize yourself as actually being born in the hellish realm. When the appearance of fear and suffering arises vividly, (think) although I am not born there now, just by taking the suffering there to heart, there is already so much fear and suffering. There are countless sentient beings born there now. All of those are just my parents from previous lives. The parents and relatives, friends, etc. of this life, many who have died, cannot be certain that they have not been born there. The main cause of being born in those realms is the karma of hatred. We ourselves have accumulated countless afflictions and karma of hatred in this life and in other lives, so we will definitely be born in those hellish realms in the future. Therefore, now that we have obtained a human body with leisure and opportunity, met a qualified lama, and heard profound instructions, at this time when we can attain Buddhahood, we must constantly think that we must strive not to be born in the lower realms in the future. We must confess with strong regret for the evil deeds we have done in the past, and make a strong vow that we would rather die than accumulate the karma that will cause us to be born in hell in the future. We must cultivate strong compassion for the sentient beings who are born there now. We must pray that they all be liberated from the lower realms immediately, etc., and practice the complete three aspects of preliminary, main practice, and conclusion. Second, the eight cold hells are: The commonality is that the ground and surroundings are all in snow mountains and ice. In a place where only blizzards rage, naked and tormented by the suffering of cold, blisters appear on the body and burst with a pop, this is the Blister Hell. Those blisters burst and turn into wounds, this is the Bursting Blister Hell. Unable to bear the stinging pain of the cold, the teeth chatter, making a "so ta ta" sound. Constantly uttering wails, making an "a chu chu" sound. Because the voice is hoarse, making a weak

在寒冷中发出“咿”的声音，发出“咿”的声音。外面的皮肤变成蓝色，裂成四瓣，像乌 উৎপལ་花一样裂开。里面的肉显露出红色，也因寒冷而冻结，裂成八瓣，像莲花一样裂开。比那更红更黑，裂成十六瓣和三十二瓣，无数瓣，像大莲花一样裂开。在这样裂开的伤口中，许多长着铁嘴的虫子进入并吞噬，感受着寒冷的痛苦。从感受着寒冷的痛苦中，八种不同的痛苦形成了八个名字，称为八寒地狱。它们的寿命是：用 கோச城的斗来衡量，能装二十斗的容器装满芝麻，每过一百年，从水泡地狱中取出一粒芝麻，当所有芝麻都用完时，水泡地狱的寿命就结束了。其余的地狱，寿命依次以二十倍递增，痛苦也越来越大。水泡地狱的寿命乘以二十，水泡破裂地狱才能度过。它的寿命乘以二十，冻疮地狱才能度过等等。 应该这样理解。那些痛苦也像以前一样在自己身上承受并观修。现在在人间，冬天赤身裸体站立片刻，寒冷的痛苦也无法忍受。如果生在那里，怎么能忍受呢？这样忏悔自己的罪过，并发誓。并对生在那里的众生修慈悲等等，像以前一样具备前行、正行、后行三者，从而修持。短暂的地狱是：处所不定，痛苦也不定。有时夹在岩石中间，有时裹在石头里面，有时冻僵在冰雹里面，有时在温泉里煮，有时在火中烧，有时被砍伐树木，从而执取自己手足被砍断而痛苦，以及在石臼、扫帚、纺锤、门、柱子、灶台、绳索等等经常使用之物中产生认知，从而感受那些痛苦。例如，朝圣者贡噶林巴曾亲眼看到亚卓湖中的怪物鱼，成就者唐东嘉波曾亲眼看到石头里的青蛙等等。此外，在亚卓雍措蓝湖中，以前空行母益西措嘉 在修行时，苯教徒用黄金

Making a "yi" sound in the cold, making a "yi" sound. The outer skin turns blue and cracks into four petals, cracking like an উৎপল flower. The inner flesh appears red, also frozen by the cold, cracking into eight petals, cracking like a lotus. Even redder and blacker than that, cracking into sixteen and thirty-two petals, countless petals, cracking like a great lotus. Inside such cracked wounds, many worms with iron beaks enter and devour, experiencing the suffering of cold. From experiencing the suffering of cold, eight different sufferings form eight names, called the Eight Cold Hells. Their lifespans are: Measured by the measure of the city of கோச, a container that can hold twenty measures filled with sesame seeds, each hundred years, one sesame seed is taken from the Blister Hell, when all the sesame seeds are used up, the lifespan of the Blister Hell ends. The remaining hells, the lifespans gradually increase by a factor of twenty, and the suffering becomes greater. The lifespan of the Blister Hell multiplied by twenty, the Bursting Blister Hell can pass. Its lifespan multiplied by twenty, the Chapped Skin Hell can pass, and so on. It should be understood in this way. Those sufferings are also taken upon oneself and meditated upon as before. Now in this human realm, in winter, even standing naked for a moment, the suffering of the cold cannot be endured. If born there, how could one endure it? In this way, confess one's own faults and take vows. And cultivate compassion for the sentient beings born there, etc., like before, complete with the three: preliminary, main practice, and concluding practice, thereby practicing. The ephemeral hells are: the place is uncertain, and the suffering is also uncertain. Sometimes squeezed between rocks, sometimes wrapped inside stones, sometimes frozen inside hailstones, sometimes boiled in hot springs, sometimes burned in fire, sometimes cut down as trees, thereby grasping that one's own limbs are cut off and suffering, and recognizing oneself as objects that are constantly used, such as mortars, brooms, spindles, doors, pillars, stoves, ropes, etc., thereby experiencing those sufferings. For example, the pilgrim Gönpo Lingjé Repa once saw monster fish in Lake Yamdrok, and the accomplished Thangtong Gyalpo once saw frogs inside stones, etc. Furthermore, in the turquoise blue lake of Yamdrok Yumtso, formerly Khandro Yeshe Tsogyal When practicing, the Bonpos used gold
