Also known as the underworld or the realm of the dead, where the King of the Underworld resides to reward and punish the souls of the dead.
The metaphysical realm, the realm where the gods (A Tu La) reside.
The Master said in “Nang Tho Cam Tu”:
“The underworld gods is suffering from a severe epidemic,
The god of the Death will reach out to those who die lacking merits.”
The underworld compared to the living world: “The living world and the underworld are two distant lands.” (Ancient poem).
Calamities and painful illness will soon befall sentient beings, so the Master advises everyone: From now on, you should not cry out to the Divine or the Five Elements to command or curse anyone.
Because, although they are in the distant metaphysical realm, they are now sent to earth by Heaven’s command to punish those who violate their verbal karma or commit other crimes.
Those who curse or summon them are bringing suffering upon their own families.
