"The bad habits involving body, mouth, and mind karma that beings of Jambudvipa perpetuate, result in hundreds of thousands of retributions like those. I have listed only a few examples here.
Since the karma created by beings of Jambudvipa calls forth different responses, Earth Store Bodhisattva uses hundreds of thousands of expedient means to teach and transform them.
Those beings must first undergo retributions such as those and then fall into the hells, where they pass through eons without being able to escape. You should therefore protect people and protect nations. Do not allow the accumulation of karma to confuse beings."
『如是等閻浮提衆生,身囗意業,惡息結果,百千報應,今粗略說。如是等閻浮提衆生業感差別,地藏菩薩百千方便而教化之。是諸衆生,先受如是等報,後墮地獄,動經劫數,無有出期。是故汝等護人護國,無令是諸衆業迷惑衆生。』
On hearing that, the Four Heavenly Kings wept in sorrow, placed their palms together, and withdrew.
四天王聞已,涕淚悲歎合掌而退。
CHAPTER V
Names of Hells
地獄名號品第五
At that time Universal Worthy Bodhisattva, Mahasattva said to Earth Store Bodhisattva, "Humane One, for the sake of gods and dragons, those in the Fourfold Assembly, and all other beings of the present and future, please tell us the names of the hells where beings in the Saha world on the continent of Jambudvipa must suffer retributions for offenses they commit.
爾時普賢菩薩摩诃薩白地藏菩薩言:『仁者,願爲天龍四衆,及未來現在一切衆生,說娑婆世界,及閻浮提罪苦衆生,所受報處,地獄名號,及惡報等事,使未來世末法衆生,知是果報。』
Please also describe what happens during retributions undergone for evil deeds so that beings in the future Dharma Ending Age will know what those retributions are."
Earth Store Bodhisattva replied, "Humane One, based on the awesome spiritual power of the Buddha and relying on your strength, Great Bodhisattva, I will give a general list of the names of hells and describe some of what happens during retributions undergone for offenses and evil deeds.
地藏答言:『仁者,我今承佛威神,及大士力,略說地獄名號,及罪報惡報之事。
仁者,閻浮提東方有山,號曰鐵圍,其山黑邃,無日月光。
"Humane One, in Eastern Jambudvipa is mountain range called Iron Ring. The mountain is pitch black because the light of sun and moon do not shine on it. A great hell is located there named Ultimately Relentless. Another hell is called Great Avichi.
