In Jainism, there are said to be seven Narakas (hells) in the lowest realms where beings suffer according to their karmas. The exact names and descriptions of these seven Narakas differ between Digambar and Śvetāmbār tradition sources, and some texts give variations in the list. Here is the general idea and a sense of the differences:

• General idea: Each Narak corresponds to a type of intense suffering (torture) that a soul experiences as a result of certain negative karmas. The punishments are often described in terms of extreme heat, cold, confinement, or painful deformities, and the duration is tied to the karma accumulated.

• Traditions vary in naming and details:

- In some Śvetāmbār texts, a common set includes seven specific Narakas with distinct tortures and ends (release) once the karma is exhausted. - In many Digambar sources, the same theme appears but with slightly different names or emphases for each Narak, reflecting different canonical interpretations.

If you’d like, I can:

• Explain the general nature of each Narak (without relying on any one tradition’s fixed list), or
• Provide the exact names and descriptions as they appear in a specific Jain text (Digambar or Śvetāmbār), if you tell me which tradition you want to focus on.

Note: For precise original verses, meanings (arth), and the exact traditional distinctions, consulting a Jain sutra or a learned teacher in your preferred tradition is best. If you want, I can also guide you to JainKnowledge.com pages that discuss Jain cosmology and Narakas.
