Tibetan: ཉི་ཚེ་བ་
Tibetan (Wylie): nyi tshe ba
Tibetan (phonetics): nyi tse wa
English term: Ephemeral Hells
Alternative: Minor Hells, Temporary Hells
English definition: These are temporary hells within the desire realm where one can be born in a variety of states and undergo various types of sufferings. Although a being enduring an ephemeral hell may coexist within the human realm, in such a case the suffering that these beings undergo is still incomprable compared to the human inhabitants of that realm.
