Yudhistira asked What does one have to go through for their sins/
Bhishma said -
The one who gives gifts to Brahmanas and regrets that is taken away and tied to a pole and dipped in hot oil.
One who looks at a brahmana with angry eyes has his eyes plucked out with needles.
One who laughs at the insults of others has his ears fried.
One who sells mantras for a living is tortured and is then born as a worm and has to go through many births before he becomes a human again.
One who gives food to the Gods and then eats it up himself quickly, is born as a rakshasa.
One who refuses to give gifts is taken away hurled into blazing fires.
One who taken away another's wife is punished by being forced to make love to a blazing hot iron statue. A woman who leaves her husband for another person has to go through the same punishment.
One who looks at brahmanas when making to offerings to the departed is hurled from the mountains onto the earth. Butter is then applied to the body and it is then roasted in the fires.
One who steals flowers for worship is left in a forest of thorns.
