(Auto-Translation): Hell Warden, Hell Keeper. (a) One who is capable of watching over hell. (b) One who has the ability to torment others because of the suffering that exists in hell. It is said by some teachers that if there are no Hell Keepers in the hell realm, only the blind cruelty of machines is shown through oppression and domination, such as the saying, "Indeed, the place of suffering, the place of lamentation, indeed, the place of torment." This has been rejected in the Akhbhijja, Section 43. Please refer to the original text.

Pali is the language of the Tipiá¹aka, which is the sacred canon of TheravÄda Buddhism and contains much of the Buddha’s speech. Closeley related to Sanskrit, both languages are used interchangeably between religions.
