Aviciis

Aviciis is a term that appears in various spiritual and philosophical contexts, most notably within certain traditions of Buddhism and Hinduism. It generally refers to a realm or state of existence characterized by intense suffering and torment. This concept often serves as a warning against negative actions and attachments, emphasizing the consequences of harmful karma.

In Buddhist cosmology, Avici is considered the lowest and most severe of the hell realms. Beings who experience rebirth in Avici are said to endure immense pain and suffering for an incredibly long period, often as a consequence of committing heinous crimes, such as killing one's parents or harming enlightened beings. The duration of suffering in Avici is believed to be beyond human comprehension, though it is not considered eternal, as beings eventually exhaust their negative karma and are reborn elsewhere.

Similarly, in some Hindu traditions, the concept of Naraka, or hell, includes realms of punishment for negative karma. While the specific descriptions and terminology may vary, the idea of a place of extreme suffering for wrongdoing is a recurring theme. Avici is sometimes used as a synonym or as a descriptor for the most severe levels of these hellish realms. The purpose of depicting such realms is to illustrate the importance of ethical conduct and the potential negative repercussions of unskillful actions in this life and future existences.
