The Eighteen layers of Chinese Hell – Arts & Entertainment
www.china-underground.com — Diyu, the Traditional Chinese Hell, based on Buddhism concept of Naraka, is an underground maze with various levels and chambers, to which souls are taken after death to atone for the sins they committed when they were alive.
Christianity knows 2 kinds of hells: The purgatory (a place of remorse, with a real chance to reach paradise :-D) and the hell itself (for the lost cases). In here Lucifer reigns with an iron and merciless hand ;-D. Commit sins and burn in hell for all eternity :-D. Of course, the Chinese have a much more complex and, as usual, a more sophisticated and bewildering hell (with chinese characteristics) to offer.
So, they came up with different hell stages for different sins...yo. Interesting pictures.
Mao, how do you feel in there? Whu: You will join him and your comrades soon. Say Hello to Stalin, Nero and Saddam, and send us a postcard as soon as you arrive!
for some reason our glorious Italian Prime Minister comes to mind ...
That Al Capone, Italia's Mafia boss No. 1 and Godfather deserves a free stay in all 18 layers, indeed! So does Sarkozy.
They are a disgrace for Europe...
