PUBLISHER'S PREFACE
About the Book "This is a translation of an abridged version of the Garuda Purana. The
Garuda Purana is one of the Vishnu Puranas. It is in the form of a dialog between Vishnu and Garuda, the King of Birds. The second section of this Pura na (give n here) dea Is with issues con nected with death, pa rticu larly funeral rites and the metaphysics of reincarnation. Portions of the Garuda Pura na are used by some Hind us as fu nera I litu rgy. Indeed, some conside r it unlucky to read th is text except during fu ne ra Is. Of interest are the intermediate states between birth and rebirth, which roughly correspond to the western concepts of Hell and Heaven. Since this was written during the medieval era, it is possible that the writer of this text had contact with Ch ristia nity. Earl ier Hind u texts do not ela borate about 'hell' and 'heaven,' at least not to this extent, and the subject is completely absent in the oldest texts. Here, the torments of Hell are described in terms that would not be out of place in a Baptist revival tent (or Dante, for that matter). In addition, the four-square city of Vama, the God of Death, is reminiscent of the heavenly city in Revelation. However, these are way stations between incarnations (or, as termed in the Tibetan Book of the Dead, Bardos), not a pe rma nent desti nation. The Garuda Purana starts with the details of the afterlife. Following this is an account of funeral procedures, including rituals, the astrological timing of the post-death observances, and ritual gifts. Balancing the extended vision of He II in the ea rlie r pa rt of the docu ment is a shorter accou nt of the City of Vama. After that is an en u meration of correspondences betwee n the macrocosmos and the human body. The final part of this text is an appeal to self-knowledge as the key to liberation, going beyond austerities and study of the texts. "The fool, not knowing that the truth is seated in himself, is bewildered by the Shastras,--a foolish goatherd, with the young goat under his arm, peers into the well.""

It is used allover India at funeral ceremonies, on other occasions, thinking it inauspicious. CHAPTERSI to VII deal with Hells.

Hell is not a very savoury one, and shy of studying this unpleasant r unpleasant, the science does not No one is forced to study the do so, as no one is bound to study e scenes of the dissecting room.
The question then is, do these hells r ally exist? If so, where? This is a question of fact, and must be decided like all questions of fact, on the evidence of relia ble witnesses who ave, from pe rsona I experie nce, described th is region. To a Hind u ther is needed no greater testimony than that of Yogi Yajfiavalkva who, in t e Prayaschitta Adhvava of his law book, mentions 21 hells. The author of Vi$t:!u Smriti also has followed in his footsteps. Hell, then, according to Hindu seers, is a particular locality walled off from the surrounding regions of spa e by the messengers of Yama, the ruler of Hell. Within this particular spac so specially guarded, no joy can enter. It is a region of pa in--sha rp. inte se and seve reo Sin ne rs clothed in their painful bodies (jatana deha)--repli a of their physical bodies, though made of subtler matter, suffer the punis ments deserved by their sins. But there is one d istingu ish ing ma rk betwee the Hind u idea of Hell and that of votaries of Semitic creeds. The punish ent in Hell is not eternal. It is Reformatory and Educative. The hell punishment is not remembered by the soul when it is re-born, no more than it emembers the joys of heaven. But the permanent educative effect remains in that part of the sold--called the conscience. The natural fear, which c rtain souls feel at the sight of temptation to sin, is the result of the fi er development of conscience, in the furnace of hell-fire. This is the pe manent gain which the soul has acquired, and which it will never lose hrough ages to come, by passing th rough th e bitterness of the valley of Ya a--the me rcifu I ru Ier of He II. Where is then this Hell situated? Accord ng to Hindu belief, its locality is in the astral region of the physical South P Ie, as the Heaven is situate in the astral region of the physical North Pole. As a prison house is a prison only to the criminal, but not to the visitor, ho goes there on his mission of mercy and charity, so Hell is a place of punishment and pain only to the sinners and not to those who go there n similar missions. The readers of the Hind u Sacred lite ratu re will no do u t re member the bea utifu I episode of Nachiketas going to Hell, and learning from its Ruler the secret of cosmic evolution, miscalled the secret of death.

tohacharaka).
After being thus purified by ell-fire, the soul is re-born with keener
conscience and under circumst nces where it can, if it so chooses, make better use of its faculties. Sa s Yajfiavalkva in verse 218 of the Third Adhvava that the lords of m rcy place such souls in very favourable circu msta nces afte rwa rds. 1 But if the soul so favourably pi ced, omits to do good action or commits evil deeds again, and leaves its enses unrestrained, there is again a fall for that soul, as is mentioned in the next verse. 2 Is there any physical Hell also, 0 is it in the astral plane only? As Heaven is both physical and astral, and a the Svarga is on the physical plane also, where the great risis like Vyasa Asvatharnan, Markandeva and others are said to be still living in their phy ical bodies, so there are physical hells also, though not known as Hells. W at are these prison houses in every wellgoverned community but phys cal hells? What is this outcasting by the society, but making one feel th torture of hell, in fact Gautama in his law book definitely calls this stage ell, and some say that Gautama did not bel ieve, in anothe r form of he II. Thus the fact of concrete existe ce of hell cannot be doubted. Leaving the testimony of Hindu seers aside, n modern times we have the evidence of a hard-headed man of science lik Sweden borg, of a refined artist and poet like Dante, and the great sage R- rnkrisna Para maha msa, Is there any means by which a man may save himself from the pains of hell? On this point, our ancient authors held different opinions. One class of thinkers held the view that si could not be expiated by any act of man, however meritorious it be in its nature, but one must suffer the full consequences of his sins. The later view, which has gained ascendency now, is that for the intentional ortal sins-kama
kritamahapataka.v-there
is no penance, except the deat penance, which can save the man from future troubles. Several kinds 0 death penances are described in our law books, and in th is age, a very sa uta ry ru Ie is laid down by the pa ndtts that

no death penance should ever be described, if a sinner asks the pa nd it for the appropriate penance of his sin. Thus in certain cases of incest, the only operative penance is to embrace a red-hot iron image and die in that way. Similarly, the penance for drinking spirituous liquors is death by drinking boiling liquors or butter. But no Pat:lc;!it is allowed, by the rule of the present Iron age, to describe these death penances to any sinner. The result therefore, is that according to the law, every mortal sinner must pass through the period of purificatory process of hell. For minor sins, the rule is d iffe rent. The afte r-life conseq ue nces ca n be wa rded off by appropriate penances. And here is a rich field which the arahrnin priestcraft of India, preying on the gullibility of its votaries, has exploited to its extreme extent. For every sin, there is a penance, and also a pilgrimage, with its concomitant result in the shape of so much fee (daksina) to be paid to the arahrnln. Penances have become a farce in Modern India. Like the dispensations of the Popes of Rome, pena nces ca n be compou nded by the payme nt of amounts ranging from a cowrie shell to thousands of rupees to Brahmins, It is not that the gifts to a deserving man washes away sins, for modern Hinduism has done everything in its power to throw in 'the background that rational idea, but a gift to a Brahmin, however bad he may be, as the saying goes that no one feeds a docile donkey, but a kicking cow, for the sake of her milk. This presupposes that a kicking Brahmit:l has milk to give, wh ich is fa r from the truth. The practice of Prayaschittas or penances is based upon a more rational basis. Repentance for sin is the highest pravaschitta, the infliction of bodily pains is of secondary importance. One who has performed such penance has exhausted the evil effects of his sins and for him there is no penance.
