I am layman Buddhist/pagan.
The summary is based on what I perceive is 'important' in the book.
Conversation in between Deity JiGong, Yang Sheng and Prison Guard
If there is contradiction of meaning convey, the book prevails.
There are times I might questioning parts of the points inside the book doesn't mean I don't believe it. I need enlightenment on the doubts that I raise.
VISIT TO THE 6TH PALACE OF HELL INTERVIEW WITH THE KING OF PALACE (KING BIAN CHENG)
Narrated by JiGong: Human lifespan not very long, in present day, can live more than 70 years old. Heaven does not restrict the lifespan of human beings but because of avarice, alcoholism, night clubs, vice and gambling, human vitality is wasted to a great extent, thus, bringing necessary untimely death. I wish to exhort human beings to take up ascetic practices thereby extending their life expectancy.
Salient points by King Bian Cheng:
The world is in great turmoil.
Therefore, "Journey to the Underworld" to be written for masses. To see the suffering through punishment here.
Nowadays, due to advancement in science, people no more believes in spirits and devils, therefore, we now can see or hear many murders, robberies, treacheries and lecheries throughout the land.
People don't care for the morrow and if they not spotted by Government laws they dare to do anything.
Those human beings who do not believe in existence of spirits and devils, and do not believe in cause and effect, who lead sinful lives, their souls cannot escape punishment in Hell when they die.
The Mills of God grind slowly but surely - Heaven retribution, is slow but sure.
Loud Shrieking Prison - souls that sent here suffer even worse punish than those in Fifth Tribunal. Cater for those souls that committed grave sins and lack of morality.
