第二中陰有者若閻浮提人。命終生欝單越。則見細軟赤疊可愛之色。即生貪心。以手捉持舉手攬之。如攬虛空。親族謂之兩手摸空。復有風吹。若此病人冬寒之時。暖風來吹除其寒苦。若暑熱時。涼風來吹除其欝蒸。令心喜樂。以心緣故。不聞哀泣悲啼之聲。若其業動其心亦動。聞其悲聲。吹生異處。是故親族臨終悲哭甚為障礙。若不妨礙生欝單越。中間次第有善相出。見青蓮花池。鵝鴨鴛鴦充滿池中。即走往趣入中遊戲。欲入母胎。從華池出行於陸地。見於父母欲染和合。因於不淨。以顛倒見。見其父身。乃是雄鵝。母為雌鵝。若男子生。自見其身作雄鵝身。若女人生。自見其身作雌鵝身。若男子生。於父生礙於母生愛。若女人生。於父生。愛於母生礙。是名生欝單越第二中陰有也。

The second intermediate state: If a person of Jambudvīpa dies and is born in Uttarakuru, they see a lovely color of fine, soft, red wool. They immediately generate craving and grasp it with their hands, raising their hands to catch it as if catching empty space; their relatives say that the two hands are groping at the void. Furthermore, a wind blows. If this sick person is in the cold of winter, a warm wind comes blowing to dispel their suffering from the cold; if in the heat of summer, a cool wind comes blowing to dispel their stifling steam, causing the mind to be joyful. Because the mind is focused on this, they do not hear the sounds of lamentation and weeping. If their karma shifts, their mind also shifts; hearing the mournful sounds, the wind blows them to be born in another place. Therefore, when relatives weep at the approach of death, it is a great hindrance. If there is no hindrance, they will be born in Uttarakuru. In between, wholesome signs sequentially appear: they see a pond of blue lotuses filled with geese, ducks, and mandarin ducks, and immediately run toward it to enter and play within it. When about to enter the mother's womb, they emerge from the flower pond and walk on dry land. They see the parents uniting in lustful defilement, relying on impurity. Due to inverted views, they see the father's body as a gander and the mother as a goose. If to be born as a male, he sees his own body as that of a gander; if to be born as a female, she sees her own body as that of a goose. If a male is born, he gives rise to aversion toward the father and love toward the mother; if a female is born, she gives rise to love toward the father and aversion toward the mother. This is called the second intermediate state of being born in Uttarakuru.
