「象首!此亦如是,有欲界人身四大諸根時,無欲界天身,色界天身,乃至有想無想處天身;如是展轉,至有想無想處天身時,無有欲界人身四大諸根,及欲界天身,色界天身,至不用處天身。
“Hastikaśīrṣa, this is likewise. When a desire realm person’s body of four elements and faculties is possessed, there’s no body of the desire realm gods, form realm gods … abode with and without conception gods. Thus, in their turn … when the body of the abode with and without conception gods is possessed, there’s no desire realm person’s body of four elements and faculties, body of the desire realm gods, form realm gods … abode of nothingness gods.
