Query:
I am doing
a research paper about Naraka, can you tell me more on naraka? I understand there
are several stages in naraka or hell? In Hinduism
can someone that goes to Naraka reincarnate for better or worst?

You
can find few details here- Meaning
of Naraka
Naraka
and Swarga
are stages in the Cosmic
evolutionary system which not only exist on this planet Mother Earth
but form part and parcel of the life of a human being.
The
normal belief that Naraka exists in a different zone in the cosmos is a misnomer.
My article Swarga
Heaven, Naraka Hell and Dharti (mother Earth) ... their interwoven connection
would prove helpful.
Whenever
an atman the soul within takes a body ... it has to have matching parents otherwise
it cannot manifest. Whenever the death of a human being occurs ... if that Atman
gets matching parents it will immediately manifest otherwise it remains in hell
(Naraka) or Heaven (Swarga). One gets Naraka only if the resultant Karma is so
that one has to suffer. If the resultant Karma is due to pious deeds committed
in earlier life one gets Swarga. Who suffers ... an atman the soul within cannot
suffer for it is an energy source ... it has to have a body to suffer. For this
reason ... Naraka and Swarga has to exist on this planet Earth.
India
is considered as a country where poor live ... yet, when an Indian dies and does
not get matching parents in India for the next birth ... the only alternative
for the atman soul is to manifest in a country where Naraka and Swarga like conditions
exist depending upon the resultant Karma of the individual.
What can be considered as Swarga like conditions ... a country with a free enterprise
system ... where one can do whatever he likes and yet remain happy and contended.
In a country like India you work hard to the best of your ability yet, you get
paid a mere US $10 for a days job. In USA for the same time of job work ... you
could easily demand anywhere between US $50~US $80. Is that not like Swarga like
condition. You live comfortably, happily and are able to save sufficiently for
your future.
In
contrast, there exist on Mother Earth places where people are able to earn not
more than US $0.40 for a day's work or even less ... what shall we term this as
... living in hell? Yes, ask these poor people and the definition of Naraka would
become immediately clear to you. In India, there are many places where people
earn a daily wage of $0.30. Likewise, in the world you would find places where
the days earning may be a paltry $0.20 or even less.
Conditions like fire and darkness, pit of fire carry no meaning for this poor
people as it is their daily routine which they have to bear for their life.
The different
stages in Naraka can be defined as ... one getting $0.40 and the other $0.60.
The lifestyles of both these families would be drastically different. A difference
of $0.20 is a lot for these families. For these families one getting US $10 for
a days job is virtually living in Swarga.
The example given above is not a mere example ... one needs to understand the
concept as a whole.
While
remaining in Naraka ... if one does pious deeds one is bound to be born in a good
family where almost Swarga like conditions exist. You might term it as Reincarnation
for the better ... one only reaps what we sow ... nothing more or less! The Cosmic
concept of life is absolutely clear ... one has to perform requisite Karma to
achieve whatever one wants to achieve in life.
Always

Hi My
name is Jamie, I am doing a research paper about Naraka and I need a description
of it, can you tell me more or give me the idea how to get a description of Naraka?
I look in the net and found just little article but nothing with a complete description.
I understand that there is several stages in the Naraka or hell, what are the
major ones and the porpuse? Can you tell me after how someone views the Naraka?
in buddhism is like fire and darkness, in christianity is the pit of fire , how
about Hinduism? Can some one that goes to Naraka can re-encarnete in beter or
worst?
