十問:不還果生五淨居疑。小乘所說不還果,遍彼上流聖位,於無雲福生廣果天中,生五淨居天者。且不還果身不作受生業,何故下三天能生五淨居天耶?若言凡夫時作業者,入正性離生之日,但捨凡夫異熟業,何有凡夫業生五淨居業耶?
Tenth question: Doubt concerning anāgāmins being born into the Five Pure Abodes. In the Hinayana teaching, anāgāmins, pervading those upper-flowing noble stages, are said to be born into the Five Pure Abodes within the Anabhraka, Puṇyaprasava, and Bṛhatphala heavens. Now, the body of an anāgāmin does not create karma leading to rebirth; why then can the lower three heavens give birth to the Five Pure Abodes? If one says that they created the karma when they were ordinary beings, upon the day of entering the stage of correct determination and leaving behind birth, they merely abandon the ordinary being's karmic maturation. How could there be ordinary karma that gives birth to the Five Pure Abodes?
