3.383

婆沙論云。待死如寄客去如至大會多集福德故捨命時無畏。復作是念隨所受身。末後心滅為死。若爾心念念滅。皆應有畏。非但末後心滅可畏也。

The Vibhāṣā-śāstra states: Regarding death as a guest departing, or as going to a great assembly, because one has accumulated much merit, there is no fear at the time of relinquishing life. Moreover, one reflects thus: According to whatever body has been received, the cessation of the final mind constitutes death. If so, as the mind ceases moment by moment, one should fear in every case; it is not only the cessation of the final mind that should be feared.
