Yama is also known as the king of the afterlife, and he is said to have a powerful army of demons who help him in his duties. They are responsible for escorting the souls of the dead to the appropriate Narakas. In some Mahayana stories, Yama and his generals are depicted as drinking molten metal to punish themselves for overseeing the punishment of others.

It is believed that Yama's role is not just to punish the souls of the dead but also to help them purify their negative karma and eventually attain enlightenment. The Narakas are not seen as eternal places of punishment, but rather as temporary realms that souls must pass through before they can be reborn in a higher realm.
