Crushing-hells awareness (Buddhism, Tibetan)

There are two states of awareness at this stage: one is the black rope hell for thieves, the other is for sexual perverts. The states are characterized by sensations of being cut along lines of the body made by charcoal-blackened bindings, or of being crushed.

In Tibetan Sakya Buddhism this is one of the states in the "Ascension Stages Game". In some sets it is numbered 5 on the board.
