Avīci: Understanding the Buddhist Concept of the Realm of Uninterrupted Suffering

Avīci is a term from Buddhism that refers to the lowest and most intense level of the Buddhist hell. It is also known as the “uninterrupted hell” or “endless suffering.”

In Buddhist belief, it is the place where the worst kinds of evil-doers are sent after death, where they experience unending and excruciating pain without any respite.

The beings in Avīci are believed to be constantly tortured by a variety of unimaginable means, such as being burned, cut, beaten, and crushed. It is considered one of the most terrifying and painful realms of existence in Buddhist cosmology.
