Judgment.

Never deceive yourself in life,
Gods and spirits know whom to seek,
Good or evil deeds, you'll be judged,
Sooner or later, only a matter of time.


i quoted this from a book about the 10 courts of King Yama,
the 18 levels of Hell.
i believe the concept of hell is very simple for everyone;
a place where all sinners atone their sins.
i think our parents might have once used that as an excuse to motivate us to be upright and honourable men.
but as time goes by and all of us turn into youngsters, ambitious and greedy,
we soon forget the concept of hell, and 'hell' is merely a swear word.

i believe at our age, youngster are pretty much the same.
we have our dreams and desires.
we sought after them, by hook or crook.
we only care about fashion and sort.

as time passed, i believe that adults that used to be youngsters,
might have once wondered about death,
and even what will happen after death.

a system was set up by the creator called Karma,
to ensure equality and balance in the universe.
what goes around comes around,
sinners or sage, we all get our fair share.
but they set up another destination known as hell;
the destination for sinners who evaded karma.

it was told of how cruel hell could be,
and how one could descend to hell for a mere beastly thought.
it was also passed around that the punishment in hell will inflict on your incarnation;
a tongue ripped sinner will reborn mute.

i never thought much of sins and hell.
until recently, i found a book lying on my shelf.
entitled 'Journey to the Underworld',
it mentions of how the benevolent emperor Tang Taizong,
was summond to King Yama for judgment for his sins of killing his brothers and usurping his father's throne.

the story influence me strongly.
today, i led my life with a very simple principle:
we will have a taste of what we do.
sinning will only bring you punishment;
sooner or later, its just a matter of time.

today and the days to come,
if you ever think of sinning.
you want to remove someone due to your fear and jealousy,
you want to remove an able aide due to rumours.
you want to betray your friends for benefits.
beware. someone might be watching you from above,
and these sins accumulate to bring you bad karma or purgatory.

and christian brothers,
i heard that you will ascend to heaven after you die.
but i think you all dun wan to pay a heavy ticket to heaven,
considering your heavy sins?

the sea of sin is endless, return and you'll find shore.
whenever you want to do something sinful,
big or small, serious or not;
have the concept of hell in your heart.
have the concept of the bullhead and horseface guards.
have the concept of purgatory, punishment, knife mountain, oil cauldron.
you will then give up on your sinful human nature,
and seek internal peace, and satisfaction of yourself.

Do good and Buddha will protect you, do bad and you'll fall off the Bridge of Futility.
