Hell (Naraka in Hinduism) was not a place where human beings went bodily after death. Naraka (hell) as detailed in Bhagavad Gita was a resting place for hibernation of souls’ atmans. After death of human body if matching parents are not available on mother earth, a soul atman with a negative residual balance of karma hibernated in hell. No sooner matching parents become available; the hibernating soul atman immediately manifests a new body to start a new journey of life on mother earth.
Hell existed in periphery of sun where temperatures were considerably less. It was in such low temperatures our soul atman suffered for eternity.
Eternal punishment in hell, a concept that do not hold good in Hinduism! Hinduism believes in continuity of life… doctrine of reincarnation, rebirth! After death of human body, the released soul atman immediately manifests a new body to start new journey of life on mother earth. Only in absence of matching parents’ soul atman hibernated in heaven or hell.
