Gūtha untranslated

Gūtha. One of the purgatories. It is next to the Mahā Niraya, and is the habitation of needle-mouthed creatures who rip away the skin, flesh, tendons, etc., of the victim and then devour his marrow (MN.iii.185; Ja.vi.8; Snp­a.ii.481).

Those who insult their parents are born in this purgatory. Dhp­a.iv.34.
