“Hell has different meanings for us all. For those non-religious types, Hell exists inside of us or all around us or some shit like that. For others, it depends on their previous experiences. For some, a hard math test may be Hell. For others, a shootout may not meet the standards. So really, Hell is a broad spectrum of personal bias. Either way you cut it, if this was Hell breaking loose, it was pretty tame.”

“Assuming the possibility then that some go to a place of torment after they die, I also assume that the place of torment is not simply for the sake of retributive justice but also for restorative justice: that we will see and understand the harm we have done. I also believe that Jesus is there as well, constantly present, so when folks turn to him in remorse and ask for release, he is there to release them.”

“Is that hell? Will they be there forever? Yes, it is hell. We call it The Cleansing here. Any of them can leave The Cleansing at any time, they just need to turn to The Great-Eternal, and they can leave. The purpose is to purge them of sin, evil, and darkness, so they will be worthy of a RY-VER of light. They would not purge it from themselves through self-discipline in their MIDI-life, so they do it now through their suffering.”

“Abandon all hope, ye who enter here." According to Dante, these lines are written over the gates of Hell. Zen masters, by contrast, have high hopes for going to Hell. For them, out of bottomless compassion, we should want to go to Hell. When asked by a college student in America if he thought people go to Heaven after they die, the modern Rinzai Zen master Fukushima Keidō replied: "Only the ego wants to go to Heaven!”

“Most religious cosmologies include the existence of hells somewhere in the universe, and Buddhism is no exception. "Hell" is a translation of the Indic word naraka (or niraya), "devoid of happiness." The hells are mentioned in a large number of Buddhist sūtras, either as a single entity, as in the Verses on the Law (Dhammapada, 4th-3d century B.C.E.), or as a system of individually named hells, as in the Abhidharma commentaries (very early Buddhist writings). They were certainly not systematized into an elaborate structure such as we see in the Abhidharmakośa for a very long time.”
