第九中陰有者。若瞿耶尼人命終生天。有二種業。何等為二。一者餘業。二者生業。生於天上。其人臨命終時則有相現。以善業故。垂捨命時。氣不咽濁。脈不斷壞。諸根清淨。見大池水。其水調適洋洋而流。浮至彼岸。既至彼岸。見諸天女第一端正。種種莊嚴戲笑歌舞。其人見已欲心親近。前抱女人。即時生天受天快樂。如夢中陰即滅。是名第九中陰有也（瞿耶尼人生有三品上中下業同一光明等一中陰一切相似不同欝單人三種受生差別相也）。

> The ninth intermediate state: If a person of Godānīya dies and is born in heaven, there are two kinds of karma. What are the two? The first is residual karma, and the second is productive karma for birth in the heavens. When that person approaches the end of life, signs appear: due to wholesome karma, when on the verge of giving up life, their breath is not choked or turbid, their veins are not broken or ruined, and their sense faculties are pure. They see a great pool of water, its water temperate and flowing broadly, and float to the other shore. Having reached the other shore, they see heavenly maidens of foremost beauty, with various adornments, playfully laughing, singing, and dancing. Having seen them, that person's mind of desire seeks intimacy; stepping forward to embrace the woman, they are immediately born in heaven and experience heavenly pleasure, and as in a dream the intermediate state is extinguished. This is called the ninth intermediate state. (The birth of people of Godānīya has three grades of karma—superior, middling, and inferior—which share one and the same radiance and an identical intermediate state, all alike, unlike the distinct signs of the three kinds of rebirth for people of Uttarakuru.)
