What do scriptures say about this

Those who always commit sins, those who are unkind, and those who are on the path of unrighteousness will fall into unholy hell. Those who have knowledge and always follow the path of Dharma will have a good pace.

After death, the fate of those who follow the wrong path and do not perform any Pre-Vedic karmas is as follows: Even at the time of death, they do not leave the delusion of ‘I’ and ‘mine’. The same kind of companionship he gets at the time of death and after death, as he cares for others while alive. His eyes move up and down as his breath goes out. The pulses become stagnant due to phlegm. He has to make a special effort to cough and catch his breath.

At the last moment, the dying person attains divine vision. As a result, he sees both this and that world together. Surprised by that, he doesn’t want to say anything. When the messenger of Yama approaches, all his senses become impaired. Dynamics become inert, and Prana (life air) becomes mobile. As the Prana starts leaving its place in haste, even a single moment feels like an epoch. At that time, the pain feels like a hundred scorpion bites. The mouth will fill with saliva. The Prana of sinners comes out through the anus.

At that time, two messengers of Yama approach with a noose and stick in both hands. Seeing their horror, the dying person defecates in terror. The thumb-sized Purusha (i.e., potentials), who comes out of his physical body crying “ha..ha” and is bound by Yama’s messengers, looks at his house, is tied around his neck, and is dragged towards Yama’s path.

Hearing the words of Yama’s messengers and the lamentations of his relatives, the creature weeps loudly, afflicted with hunger and thirst, and journeys on a very difficult path. He is taken to the world of Yama for committing sinful acts.

In two or three seconds, the messengers drag the creature to the world of Yama and show him the punishments for sin. After seeing it, the messengers bring the creature back to the human world. Because of the memory of his past, the creature wishes to return to his body, but he is unable to do so. So he cries out in despair.

His son owes Pinda (rice ball) to a deceased being. Because of this, even a little bit of satisfaction is given to that creature. A person who has committed many sins even after accepting Pinda’s offering will again go on the path of Yama

Even for the sake of the acquisition of a human body by the dead one, his son should offer Pindas regularly for 10 days. That pinda is divided into four parts every day. Two parts of it are for the nourishment of the five fundamental elements (i.e., solid, liquid, air, brilliance, and opportunity) of the ghost body. The third portion is assigned to the messengers of Yama. In the fourth portion, the deceased is fed. In nine days and nights, the body of the ghost is formed for the attainment of Pinda, and on the 10th day, it acquires strength

On the day of Vaikuntha, the organization conducts a Vedic chanting program.

The Sadgati organization can be contacted for more details.

Note: He who does not get Pinda’s offering will assume the form of a Preta (a kind of ghost) and wander in the desolate forest until this four Yugas is over.

After the cremation of the dead person, he again gets a body of one cubit length through Pinda. Through it, the deceased will enjoy the fruits of good and bad deeds on the way to the world of Yama.[47-50]
