Does Hell really exist??

Hare Krishna and dandavat pranam to all prabhujees and matajis!!! I know the question may sound stupid and ludicrous but of late, the thought of hell is disturbing my mind. I was watching Astha tv where a saint while delivering a lecture on Srimad Bhagavatam was mentioning names of various Hells where punishment will be given to our subtle bodies according to the sin we commit. He also mentioned that even Yudhisthira had to go to hell for speaking a lie. It is not that I fear hell and I'm bold enough to accept any punishment for every sin I have committed till date. It will be being a hypocrite if I say I'm a saint. But the thing that gives me pain is the thought that I will miss Krishna and may not get back to my own home, Goloka. I wud request the blessed devotees to  guide me.

  • Hare Krishna !!

    Dandavat pranam  p ji !!!!

    Its so encouraging to see your desire to go to Krishna's abode. Its true pr ji that in human form of life we have to face the consequences for every deed. But Bhakti is such a process which can nullify the consequences of our every action. So keep  on chanting this HARE KRISHNA  mahamantra and keep on visiting ISKCON temples where devotees will guide you very nicely. And your desire to get the love of Godhead will be fullfilled.

    Note: One who chants  HARE KRISHNA  mahamantra regularly, will never go to hell. This is guaranteed.

  • hare krsna prabhuji ,there is no doubt about the existence of hellish planets because devotees and those persons who breaks the regulative principles almost everyday cannot be compared to be at the same platform.

    there is also the discription of hellish planets in the srimad bhag. 3rd canto .30th chapter and 5th canto last chapter.

    In this world we can see that those who breaks the laws of government is certainly sent to the jail for sometime with punishment so ,obviously for those who breaks the laws of god and nature through there immature behavior even though every minute detail is given in scriptures ,are certainly send to hellish planets after they there body and send to the kingdom of yamaraj where the type and duration for the punishment is decided.

    well you don't need to fear about that ,just by chanting the holy name we can transcend this whole material world thus no question of hell.

  • Hare Krsna! Can't we say that ,on this planet earth,hell also exists? Just go on Youtube and watch the sufferings of people who are living in great poverty with no rain falling for years....or people living in very cold regions... You can also watch animals in slaughterhouses ,crying for help,with no one coming towards them... So,if we reincarnate in such conditions,we'll suffer hell on earth...

    Nice reply, Krishna Sakhya prabhu!!! Thknx!! Hare Krishna!!

  • Hare KRSNA to all Sweet Devotees

    My humble opinion is that as devotees of our Lord ,we should not much worry about these topics.

    Forgive me if am rude  , these type of discussion  about Hell means that ,we have some fear ,subtle in our Heart.

    and fear in our heart means ,no faith ,Love for our sweet Lord.

    He is our Eternal Father ,we are his Babies ,he will throw us up for his enjoyment but in turn will catch us.

    We have to laugh and enjoy ,while he throws us up.He wont let us down.

    He who made us think about him ,will surely make us reach him.

    Our distance between him and us is not measured by KARMA Mathematics but by Mathematics of LOVE.

    All he needs is our LOVE ,lets give it to him ,what he needs.

    HARE KRSNA

  • Hare krishna prabhuji

    On the same context if hell does exists and we get punished there for our bad krama's then why does a soul has to take birth as an animal.

    I have heard that when the material person falls to a level of behavior equivalent to an animal then its sure that he will become an animal in his next birth.

    How and why does a soul has to take birth as an animal? and once that soul gets a body of an animal it takes 1,80,000 births of animal after which he can take a human form. how will such a soul ever get liberation?

    • correction about number of births

      "How and why does a soul has to take birth as an animal? and once that soul gets a body of an animal it takes 84 lakhs births of animal after which he can take a human form. how will such a soul ever get liberation?

    Hare Krishna, Siddhartha prabhu for the vital information!!! Is it also true that the great saints, Tukaram and Meerabai went alive to Godhead??

    But as far as I know, Yudhishthira told a lie.In the battlefield  he said, ' Ashwath is dead' to distract Dronacharya and make him think that his son, Ashwath is dead when actually it was an elephant named Ashwath. For this, He had to enter hell but was later saved by Krishna.
