What are the thirteen stations of the underworld?

The first stop in the underworld, the Earth Temple.

The dead soul that has just passed away is called the living soul. After the dead body undergoes four major decompositions, the carrier of life information energy leaves the body in about 12 hours, which is what we call the soul. The soul will be very painful during the out-of-body process, so it is best for family members not to touch his body to relieve his pain. There are earth temples everywhere. Some of them cannot be seen by us human beings in the Yang Realm, but they are real. They give me the same feeling as the yamen I saw on TV, with antique decorations and a brown-red picture in the middle. On the desk is the local "household registration book", which records the local mountains, rivers, population, livestock, personnel, etc. As the saying goes, a place with water and soil can support a person; a place with water and soil can support a person. A soul's birth, old age, illness and death all pass through the local earth temple. Although the earth god is humble, he is a well-known god, and no one dares to contradict him. More importantly, it is an important messenger of communication between the world church and the sacred world. From the transmission of the inscription to the incineration of money worship, everything is inseparable from the help of the land father-in-law. When someone's life ends, the Yin soldiers will take the ghost to the Tutu Temple to clear the customs, and the Tutu Guild will open the local "household registration book" for verification. The deceased belonged to a local family and he was really dead. After verifying one by one that they had no religious beliefs, he stamped the local stamp on the approval ticket and passed through the underworld. There are two sections on both sides of Lu Gongan, one is the road leading directly to the Western Paradise (those who have passed down the "Drama Name Transmission" from the folk master can directly follow their ancestors), and the other is the Huangquan Road leading to the underworld. One level is bright and the other level is extremely dark. The Yin soldiers suppress the ghosts into the Yin wind and embark on the road of death.

The second stop of the underworld, Huang Quan Road.

People often say that the road to Huangquan is not easy, and there are no young or old people on the road to Huangquan. It's true. Looking up at Huangquan Road, you can't see the sun, moon and stars; looking down, you can't see the dust of the land; looking forward, you can't see Yangguan Road; looking back, you can't see your relatives and friends. Some people may ask, why don’t the family members of the deceased burn paper cows, paper horses, and paper carts for the deceased, and use these tools to go on the road? I didn’t know that the souls of the dead couldn’t call ghosts at this time. Only when you enter Yingdu City can you be called a real ghost. Disciples in the regular hall know better. Sometimes, they buy a person's life and rob a person's soul, just on this zodiac. Because we haven’t entered Yingdu yet, everything has changed for the better. In today's terms, Huangquan Road can be regarded as an accident-prone area. Now when I think of going to Netherworld for the first time, I still feel so nervous and sad. My eyes are filled with tears when I think about how my deceased relatives felt when they went to the underworld and my descendants could not be filial to see me off. The road to Huangquan is rugged. Some of the souls from all walks of life were crying and refused to leave, some were talking sweet words to please the Yin soldiers, and some were walking straight ahead in a daze... Human beings have the strongest sense of survival, but on this road leading to Huang Quan, there are How many people can be brought back to life? No matter how hard the soul begged and how hard it tried to escape, it could not break the chain of death in Yin Bing's hands, so it went home all the way. No matter how tired your soul is, ghosts will not let you rest or delay your journey. You must get off this hellish road as soon as possible. Just kidding, there are no inns on Netherworld Road, and no amount of money on Netherworld Road will be wasted. The destination is the same place, the underworld - Yingdu.

The third stop in the underworld, Wangxiang Terrace.

After leaving Huangni Road, we went to Wangxiang Terrace. As the saying goes, once you arrive at Wangxiang Terrace, you can never come back. A stone platform is very high, emitting bursts of dark light. You can look back and see three large red characters written on the platform. When we arrived at Wangxiangtai, there was almost no possibility of resurrection. At this time, it is almost time for the gold to be put into the cabinet and buried. This Wang Xiangtai was made by Guanyin Bodhisattva. He is ruthless and compassionate in the south. He sympathizes with all living beings and expresses his true feelings of not wanting to die and missing his relatives at home. Let the dead souls stand on the platform of their hometown and take one last look at their hometown and relatives. Standing on the viewing platform, you can see Shi Yang's home, friends and relatives, and your body lying there. People who have never experienced where you will go will not understand this heartbreaking pain. I urge you to be more tolerant and kind to your family and friends. Don't wait until the day you regret it, it will be too late.

I don’t know how many tears of sadness and regret are carried on this nostalgia platform!

The fourth station in the underworld, Dog Ridge.

Walking all the way down from Wangxiang Terrace, I suddenly heard a dog barking, getting louder and louder, and more and more people listened in horror. Knowledgeable friends should know that dogs and chickens are two very important media for communication between the dead and the dead. Dogs can see the souls of the dead, and ghosts must stay out of the sun when the rooster crows to avoid being distraught. At the same time, friends who observe carefully can see that the old tooth dog will never sleep on the hot kang, and the golden rooster will never sleep on its stomach. All living things have their own laws and rules. I saw groups of ferocious dogs with fierce eyes, mouths full of steel teeth, hard fur, and steel wires wrapped around them, biting the souls of all walks of life and not letting go until their legs and feet were torn off. All souls try their best to escape from the vicious dog's iron mouth and teeth. Some of them had their legs bitten off, some had their feet ripped off, some had one arms, and some had their hands broken. I don't know, it's not that easy for a familiar person to change from a soul to a ghost. It must go through these three disasters of the Nine Tribulations. It's not easy to be a human being, and it's not that easy to be a ghost either. Just as I was thinking about this, a group of vicious dogs also yelled at me on the cloud. Seeing this scene, I realized that the dry food and dog-beating sticks earned from putting World Gold in the closet were all prepared for crossing this evil dog ridge. However, the year of birth is a dog lover, and a dog lover walks all the way on flat ground. Give birth to dogs, kill dogs, kill dogs, eat dogs. Those who cross this vicious dog ridge are scared to death. Butchers who kill dogs in the third world may have to experience the pain of being slaughtered and divided. Again, if you die at home, don’t forget this dog food! What a joke, not to mention whether there is a rabies vaccine in the underworld, it is not easy to become a ghost if you don’t beat the dog and need dry food! Gouling is littered with severed limbs and bloody corpses. There are very few people who can live through Gouling.

The fifth station in the underworld, Jinji Mountain.

Jinji Mountain has two ridges and straight peaks that have to be climbed bit by bit. For example, we have to climb from the back of the chicken to the comb. Only by crossing Jinji Mountain can we reach Yingdu. Evil Dog Ridge and Jinji Mountain are the two barriers that all souls must pass through. Only after passing these two levels can you be qualified to be a ghost. As soon as you enter Jinji Mountain, flocks of roosters rush towards you. The beak of the iron-billed vulture is more powerful than others. Every time you blink, you will be blinded by the eyes of the soul, and the flapping wings will make you unable to open your eyes. The sharp claws are more like the soul-grabbing hook in Dahei's hand. One claw can make you lively, penetrate deep into your internal organs, and it won't be over until you hit your heart and liver. You can think about what it feels like to kill a chicken in the world. Now the souls occupy the chickens. Presumably at this time, you can fully understand the feeling of being killed. Only then did I remember that in this world, when I was buried, the disk on my chest contained grains and grains, all of which were prepared for climbing the Jinji Mountain. It can be seen that the rules left by our ancestors are all internal statements. Looking at it from another angle, I would rather believe it or not. Who wants to let chickens nag my dead relatives and friends?

The sixth stop in the underworld, Ye Guicun.

As we walked forward, there was suddenly a sea of ??people and colorful flags fluttering. It seemed like there was some party, some Yangko, some dragon and lion dance, it was so lively. The sixth stop in the underworld, Ye Guicun. In fact, on the surface, all the lively scenes are illusory, and they are all souls with missing limbs that have traveled through Evil Dog Ridge and Jinji Mountain. Due to the lack of limbs, they were unable to move forward, so they had to stay and gather here, waiting for the arrival of the sound spirits who were confused by the excitement, and took the opportunity to find new limbs and replace them with their own bodies in order to continue to the underworld. I saw those confused healthy souls who could not escape these clutches, howling in pain, dripping with blood and heartbroken. At this time I saw that there were some healthy souls in the lower world who could safely pass through. I didn’t know why, so I asked the boy. The boy replied that all families in the world burn 3 pounds and 6 taels of paper money in front of the deceased's soul. Only healthy souls who take this money can pass smoothly. As he said this, he knew in his heart that money can make the world go round.

The seventh station in the underworld, the Hall of Ecstasy.

Going further, there is a pavilion in front of you. There is a deep well in the pavilion, and rolling spring water gushes out there. This is the seventh station in the underworld, the Hall of Ecstasy. After this, you will reach Yingdu, the underworld.

I don’t know if you have read the article now. Do you understand what this boy said? Have you solved the mystery in your mind?

Further forward, to the fifth hall, you can see the white jade temple gate, where lotus flowers appear, bursts of hidden incense, various auspiciousness, couplets on the door of the five halls, mainly underworld, ten halls and five halls; 18. One hundred punishments in hell are all justified by the law. The five halls of hell are filled with air conditioners. What I need to tell you here is that if there is a chance to turn to the underworld in the future, do not eat food from the underworld casually, otherwise it will be difficult to return to the sun. Even if he returns to the sun, he will still be seriously ill and the three flowers will not come together.

Reincarnation is divided into ten levels. I am writing this today, hoping to help those in need. The first-class person is a Buddha and becomes a teacher; the second-class person is an official and a nobleman; the third-class person is Chao; the fourth-class person is civil and military ministers; the fifth-class person is prosperity; the sixth-class person is a poor man on the street; the seventh person is a donkey. Adult horses; eight people, animals and birds; nine people, the next generation of pigs and dogs; ten people, fish, turtles and shrimps.

The Twelve Stations of the Underworld, the Lotus Terrace.

After leaving the five halls of Hades, I saw bursts of light in front of me. The strong light emits a bright light but is not glaring at all. Under the bright light, I saw a lotus table, mainly golden and supplemented by seven colors, giving people endless joy and freedom. It goes without saying that this must be the lotus throne where Ksitigarbha preached in hell.

Tibetan Bodhisattva is the spring breeze of cold hell, giving people bursts of warmth. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva swears that hell will never be empty and that he will never become a Buddha. Ghosts from all walks of life receive blessings from the Earth King Bodhisattva and feel the light of the Dharma. As long as you are truly kind and let go of your desires, you can still live in the West even if you become a ghost. I saw a ghost with mutilated limbs and a ferocious face. With the blessing of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, I saw that the ghost was really reborn in the Western Paradise, turned into a lotus, flew out of hell, and went straight to heaven. I can only sigh, although the rain is broad, it does not moisturize, and there is no grass without roots; although the Dharma is broad, it cannot transcend those who have no chance!

Move on. I came to the second gate of Yingdu mentioned above. Once again, I saw a bright light and a dark light. Only then did I realize that all the journeys I had just taken were the dark road to light and the road to hell. Now, if you want to rise from the dead, you have to take the bright road. The boy nodded in agreement, and this bright road is the way to return to the soul and gain new life. If a disciple who has passed through Yin embarks on the road of reincarnation, he will never return to Yang.

The thirteenth station in the underworld, Resurrection Cliff.

Go to the thirteenth station of the underworld, Resurrection Cliff. There is a bridge on the edge of the cliff. There are four bridge-protecting beasts on the bridge, located on both sides. The boundary monument reads "Gold and Silver Bridge." On the bridge, there is an old woman holding tea for the ghosts of the past to drink. This old woman is the Goddess Mengpo, and this tea is Mengpo Soup. After drinking this soup, she forgot all her grudges, right and wrong, and was reborn everywhere. On the other side of the bridge, there are six loops that emit a variety of lights. These are the six divisions in the wheel of karma. Which roundabout do you jump into when you respawn? Disciples who have passed through the Yin must embark on the road of reincarnation and go straight to the cliff of resurrection. On the other side of Resurrection Cliff, the sun is so warm!
