Is there really hell after death?

The yellow road is in China. It is said that after death, there will be black and white impermanence of the underworld to capture people's souls and bring them to the underworld for trial.

Yan Luowang's trial to decide whether they are immortals; Or reincarnate as a human being again; Or go to eighteen layers of hell to suffer. A person's soul has to go through many customs to report to the underworld, and it is a long way; Huang Quan Road is the floorboard of these customs and distances; The other refers to a section of this road called Huang Quan Road. Some people think that people will die when they reach the age of death, which is a normal death. People who die normally have to go through the gate of hell first. After this, the soul will become a ghost, followed by the road of death, which is the road to death. There are many ghosts in the dead end. They are the people who died before natural death. They can't go to heaven, they can't be reborn, and they can't go to the underworld. They can only wander on the road of death again, and only report to the underworld after waiting for natural death, at the mercy of Yan Luowang. There are flaming flowers on the other side of the yellow road. The flowers on the other side of the river are generally considered to be flowers that grow along the Santo River. There, a large number of flowers are in full bloom, which looks like a carpet paved with blood from a distance, and is called "the road of fire" because of its fiery red color. It is also the only scenery and color on this long yellow road. People followed this flower to the prison of the underworld. The legend of floral fragrance has magic power, which can arouse the memory of the deceased before his death. Walking through Huang Quan Road, there is a river called Forgetting River, and there is a bridge called Naihe Bridge in the world. Crossing the Naihe Bridge, there is an earthen platform called Wangxiangtai. There is an old woman who sells Meng Po soup by Wangxiangtai. Forget that there is a stone by the river called Sansheng Stone. Meng Po Tang makes you forget everything, and Sansheng Stone records your past life.

Historical origin

Yellow originally refers to the underground spring, and later it was named as the name of the underworld. The ecliptic has become the only way to the underworld. Walking the dead road means that this will be the final trial of Yan Luowang and the final test of eighteen layers of hell. The origin of the word "Huang" is the story of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, in which my father was named, married to the Chiang family, and had two sons, the eldest named and the second named Duan. Duan prefers his style because of his good looks. He hopes Zheng Wugong Duan will be a prince, but he failed to do so, and his style has always held a grudge. After the death of martial arts, Sheng Mao succeeded to the throne and was named Zheng Zhuanggong. Jiang made unreasonable demands to Zhuang Gong many times, and Zhuang Gong satisfied her out of her mother's kindness. But Chiang Kai-shek was not satisfied and incited the second son Duan to usurp the throne. However, it was later discovered by Zhuang Gong, and Duan committed suicide. In a rage, Zhuang Gong drove his mother from Beijing to Yingdi and vowed not to meet each other until she was buried in peace. However, he regretted it very much afterwards. After all, Jiang is his real mother. At that time, the official of the British Emperor was called Uncle Ying Kao, who was honest and selfless and always had a good reputation of filial piety and friendship. Seeing that Zhuang Gong put his mother here, he said to people: Although the mother is not like the mother, the son can't help but look like the son. So I caught some birds to see Lord Zhuang. Zhuang Gong asked: What kind of bird is this? Uncle Ying Kao said: This kind of bird is the most unfilial. Son of a bitch, peck his mother when he grows up, and then catch him and get ready to eat. Zhuang Gong was speechless after hearing this. At this time, a steamed sheep was sent from the canteen. Zhuang Gong cut off a leg of lamb for Gao Shu, but Gao Shu tore it off and put it in his sleeve. Zhuang Gong is puzzled. Uncle Kao said: My mother has never eaten such delicious food because her family is poor. I'll take it home for her to eat. Zhuang Gong doesn't feel sad. Gao Shu knew that he had persuaded Zhuang Gong, but he was hindered by the oath of "Never seeing him again until he reached the grave", so he made an offer, dug a spring in the ground, built a basement, and then took his mother to live. Finally, Zhuang Gong and his mother were reunited. Forgotten River "Forgotten River" is one of the longest tributaries that flow into "Santu River". Santu River is also called "Santuchuan". According to legend, "Three Rivers" is the dividing line between life and death. Because the water flow can be divided into three types according to the behavior of the deceased before his death, it is called "three roads" Just as life and death can only be crossed by reincarnation, there is only one way to cross the "Santu River", that is, the ferry on the "Santu River", and there is no other way. However, the ferry has to pay the fare, and the soul without the toll can't get on the ferry. Even if there is, it will be thrown into the "Santu River" by the boatman. Those souls who can't cross the river, driven by the desire of reincarnation, will wade across the river, but the water of the "Santu River" is not only lifeless, but also highly toxic and corrosive to the soul. Those souls who enter the water will never have a chance to land, but can only become water ghosts in the "Santu River". The pain that can never be reincarnated and the cold river water make those water ghosts jealous of other souls with hope of reincarnation. As long as a soul falls into the water, they will rush to it, pull it into the bottom of the river and become a water ghost like them. Sanshengshi The ancients in China believed that all things have spirits, and people have both flesh and souls beyond the flesh (that is, three souls and seven souls). When it's time for mortals, the soul will leave the body, and then under the guidance of the messenger of hell, that is, the ghost difference, enter the gate of hell, walk through the yellow road and reach Naihe Bridge, and you will see a stone called Sansheng Stone. In the myths and legends created by people, it is believed that everyone's past lives, the story of causal reincarnation, and the story of origin and fate are heavily engraved on this sansheng stone, so it can reflect everyone's past lives. This stone is called Sansheng Stone. It has been standing by Naihe Bridge for thousands of years, looking at those people in hell who are going to drink Meng Po Tang and then reincarnate. It silently witnessed the sufferings and joys of countless people, was used to seeing the joys and sorrows of many people, and heard many people laughing and crying. If Sanshengshi has a spirit, it may cry for all those who come and go in a hurry; If Sanshengshi has feelings, he may feel sad for all the people who come and go in a hurry; If the Sansheng Stone is meaningful, it may shout to the sky for all those who come and go in a hurry. But even if it is spiritual, affectionate and righteous, it will not give a sigh for this sentient being. For thousands of years, it looked at people coming and going, and knew that the debts and feelings that should be paid should be written off before the three stones. Naihe bridge

Legend has it that there is a road called Huang Quan Road, a river called Forgetting River and a bridge called Naihe Bridge. Crossing the Naihe Bridge, there is an earthen platform called Wangxiangtai. There is an old woman who sells Meng Po soup by Wangxiangtai. Forget that there is a stone by the river called Sansheng Stone. Meng Po Tang makes you forget everything, and Sansheng Stone records your past life. We walked across Naihe Bridge, saw the world for the last time on Wangxiangtai, and drank a cup of boiled water in Forgotten River. Why insist on "there is no fate in this life"? Naihe bridge

This bridge is the boundary, and a new cycle begins. Qingshiqiao moves in five steps, the west of the bridge is female, the east of the bridge is male, the left is yin, and the right is yang. If anyone dies at the age of 97, Naiheqiao will wait three years. Looking back at the Millennium, a century-old agreement. Perhaps the love of husband and wife in this life begins in Sri Lanka and ends here. No one knows what it is to wait for the afterlife under the Naihe Bridge in thousands of feet. The agreement of the afterlife is only a follow-up to this life. After drinking Meng Po Tang, I forgot everything. Meeting in the afterlife is just a new beginning. Naiheqiao, how can we leave in the past, meet in this life and meet again in the afterlife? Meng Po-tang's "The Classic of the Prince of Yan" said that after each temple was punished, ghosts were sent to the next temple in turn, and finally transferred to the tenth temple to be delivered to the wheel king. No.10 branch Meng Po Tang

Specializing in ghost reincarnation, ghosts who are sent here to be reborn will be taken to the Forgetting Desk in Meng Po to drink mysterious soup, so that ghosts can forget all previous lives. Legend has it that there is a road called Huang Quan Road, a river called Forgetting River and a bridge called Naihe Bridge. There is an earthen terrace opposite Naihe Bridge, called Wangxiang Terrace. There is an old woman selling Mengpo soup in Wangxiangtai. Forget that there is a stone called Sansheng Stone by the river, which makes you forget everything. Sanshengshi records your past life. We walked across Naihe Bridge, took a last look at the world at Wangxiangtai, and drank a bowl of boiled water at Forgotten River. There is no share in this life, so why force it? Those who have loved, those who can't let go, countless joys and sorrows in the rolling world of mortals, will only slowly enter the throat with "Meng Po Tang", and will forever solidify in the embarrassing and tearful look back on Naihe Bridge, turning into smoke clouds and dispersing indifferently. Is it a regret of a lifetime rush? Is it a pity that Yin and Yang are separated forever? Or the farewell of the sword and the shadow of the sleeve? ..... doesn't matter anymore. Because after drinking this Meng Po soup, everything becomes indifferent. Samsara is the basic theory of Buddhism, which holds that people are always in the samsara of life and death, and there are six samsaras, depending on the good and evil things they do when they are alive. For example, if you do something evil, you will be punished in hell after death, and you will be reborn as an animal after serving your sentence. The cycle of an animal after death depends on its "karma" when it is alive. The so-called reincarnation is actually the ups and downs of the cycle of life and death, not really like the mechanical cycle of wheels. There are six kinds of samsara, which Buddhism calls six ways, namely (from top to bottom): heaven, Asura, man, beast, evil spirits and hell, all because of five precepts and ten good deeds (five precepts: no killing, no stealing, no adultery, no nonsense and no drinking). Ten virtues: no killing, no stealing, no lewdness, no lying, no two tongues, no bad mouth, no strange words, no greed, no resentment, no evil opinions) and ten evils and five inverses (the opposite of ten virtues is ten evils, killing father, mother, arhat, destroying harmonious monks and giving birth to Buddha's body blood, which is called five inverses). Doing good is born in the last three, and doing bad is born in the last three.
