Nowadays, many cases are emerging where husbands and wives are cheating on their spouses. In Hinduism, cheating in love is considered a sin. According to the Garuda Purana, the bond of marriage and love is extremely sacred. A person who maintains a relationship with their spouse with complete honesty is considered virtuous. In contrast, those who cheat on their spouse or compromise their relationship are considered sinful. Based on these actions, a person receives punishment after death. According to the Garuda Purana, those who cheat on their love partners are punished in three different types of hells after death.
According to the Garuda Purana, a person can betray their family or spouse in three ways: first, physical betrayal; second, lying to their love partner; and third, mental betrayal, that is, mentally harassing people. The souls of those who commit these three types of betrayal receive different types of punishment. Furthermore, the betrayer is forced to take birth in an animal form in the next life.
Punishment for those who betray
According to the Garuda Purana, those who betray their lover or beloved are punished after death in the Mahatamisra, Raurava, and Tamisra hells. The punishment doesn’t end thereafter. The Garuda Purana states that those who betray others are reborn as animals in their next life. Furthermore, those who betray may also be betrayed in love in their next life. Now the question arises: what punishment do people receive in these three hells? Let’s find out the answer.
1. Mahatamisra Hell – According to the Garuda Purana, in this hell, people’s souls are tortured by starvation and thirst.
2. Raurava Hell – In this hell, people’s souls are punished by a demon named Ruru, who torments them. This punishment lasts for thousands of years. This hell is said to be for those who cause pain to others by giving them false assurances.
3. Tamisra Naraka – Those who betray the trust of others through deceit and fraud are placed in this hell, where they are tortured in darkness.
What will happen in the next life?
According to the Garuda Purana, those who betray their spouse in this life may face betrayal in the next life. Furthermore, those who betray their lover or lover in this life by lying or deceiving them are reborn as animals or birds in their next life. Specifically, as birds that never sit still.
