問：若中有於界不轉，無聞苾芻事云何通？彼佛法中適出家已，修世俗定初靜慮時謂得初果，乃至第四謂得阿羅漢，起增上慢未得謂得，彼命終時第四靜慮中有現前，便作是念：一切繫縛我已永盡，應般涅槃更無生處，何緣有此中有現前，遂起邪見撥無解脫？由謗見力彼中有滅，無間地獄中有現前，生無間獄。

Question: If the intermediate state does not shift across realms, how can the case of the unlearned bhikṣu be reconciled? Having just gone forth in the Buddha's teaching, when cultivating worldly concentration in the first dhyāna he thought he had attained the first fruit, up until in the fourth [dhyāna] he thought he had attained arhatship, conceiving overweening conceit and thinking he had attained what he had not attained. When his life was ending, the intermediate state of the fourth dhyāna appeared before him, and he thought: "All bonds have been permanently exhausted by me; I should enter parinirvāṇa and have no further place of rebirth. For what reason has this intermediate state appeared before me?" Thereupon he gave rise to a false view, denying liberation. Through the power of this denying view, that intermediate state ceased, the intermediate state of the Avīci hell appeared before him, and he was born in the Avīci hell.
