Naraka

By Crusader1307

''Naraka'' is a term used to describe ''The Underworld'' or ''Hell'', in many Hindu sub-sect Religions. It is also found in various Islamic Texts as well. Naraka is actually more related to ''Purgatory''. It is believed that Souls which are ''unclean'' or ''impure'' – are ''sent to'' Naraka, for purging and preparation for either Reincarnation or acceptance into Eternity. In Islamic versions, Naraka is a place of torment – where the more traditional Western views of Hades are quite similar. Demons relating to the particular Culture are the primary ''administrators'' of such actions. Oddly, (if more for Dante and His immortal descriptions of Hell), Naraka too has (7) ''Grounds'' of particular torments for particular Earthly Crimes.
