4.105

且天人垂死。五衰相現而有破面之忿(因果經云。天人身淨。不受塵垢。有大光明。心常歡悅。無不適意。福盡之時。五衰相現。一華冠萎脫。二兩腋汗流。三不樂本座。四眷屬離散。五身光自絕故破面之忿。謂煩惱忿怒現於面也)。

Furthermore, when a heavenly being is on the verge of death, the signs of the five decays manifest and there is the anger that mars the face (the *Karma Sūtra* says: 'The bodies of heavenly beings are pure, free from dust and defilement; they possess great radiance; their minds are always joyful, and nothing is displeasing. When their merits are exhausted, the five signs of decay manifest: first, the flower crown withers and falls; second, sweat flows from both armpits; third, they take no pleasure in their original seat; fourth, their retinue scatters; fifth, the radiance of their bodies vanishes on its own.' Hence 'the anger that mars the face' refers to afflictions and anger appearing on the face).
