瑜伽師地論略纂 2.122

2.122

Regarding "The establishment of birth," within the sixth section there are three parts: first, explaining the three births according to desires; next, explaining the three births according to bliss; and finally, explaining the reason for establishing these two. The three births according to desires are: first, birth experiencing present sense objects of desire; second, birth magically creating sense objects of desire for oneself; third, birth enjoying sense objects of desire magically created by others. "Desire" means greedy desire; because of craving for exquisite objects, now taking what is craved, they are called sense objects of desire. "Birth" means sentient beings, because they are sentient beings who love the sense objects of desire. The rest should be understood accordingly. Because the objects of the miserable destinies are contrary [to pleasure], the three kinds of births according to bliss are not established there. This is evident from the text itself.
