### [9.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1823.9.9)

釋曰：此有九門。同淨天眼見者，第一眼境門，謂中有身唯兩眼境：一、同類眼見，五趣中有各見自類也；二、淨天眼見，言淨天眼者，修得天眼極清淨故，能見中有；生得天眼則不能觀，以中有身極微細故。有餘師說：「天中有眼能見五趣；人中有眼能見四趣，除天中有也；鬼中有眼能見三趣，除人、天也；傍生中有眼能見二趣，除人、天、鬼也；地獄中有眼唯見自類也。」

> Explanation: Here there are nine topics. Regarding "seen by peers and the pure divine eye", this is the first topic, on the range of vision. It means that the intermediate-state body is the object of only two kinds of eyes: first, seen by peers—the intermediate existence of the five destinies each sees its own kind; second, seen by the pure divine eye—what is called the pure divine eye means that because the divine eye acquired through cultivation is extremely pure, it can see the intermediate state; the divine eye obtained through birth cannot observe it, because the intermediate-state body is extremely subtle. Other masters say: "The eye of an intermediate existence among celestials can see all five destinies; the eye of an intermediate existence among humans can see four destinies, excluding that of celestials; the eye of an intermediate existence among ghosts can see three destinies, excluding those of humans and celestials; the eye of an intermediate existence among animals can see two destinies, excluding those of humans, celestials, and ghosts; the eye of an intermediate existence in hell sees only its own kind."
