[edit] Summary

The book Voyages to Hell is about the consequences resulting from actions during the life of a person. It contains journeys made by Buddha Tse Kong and Yang T'sien to each level in hell to warn those in the living world with an evil heart. Each chapter contains detailed descriptions of their observations and interviews with punishable souls in hell. According the authors, the production of these accounts were painstakingly achieved, very tiring, and time consuming using Fuji (planchette writing) sessions with Buddha Tse Kong as the guide and Yang T'sien as the medium.

The original version was published in Chinese (地獄遊記). This English title was translated by Nguyen Khang and Bui H. Huu. Collection of information to write this book started in 1976 at the Temple of the Sages in Tai Chu (Taiwan). The project was completed and published in 1978.
