अव्यक्तादीनि भूतानि व्यक्तमध्यानि भारत | अव्यक्तनिधनान्येव तत्र का परिदेवना
avyaktādīni bhūtāni vyaktamadhyāni bhārata . avyaktanidhanānyeva tatra kā paridevanā
婆罗多后裔啊，一切众生在初始时是无形的，在中间阶段显现，死后又必然归于无形。对此，有何可悲伤的呢？
O descendant of Bharata, all beings remain unmanifest in the beginning;; they become manifest in the middle. After death they certainly become unmanifest. What lamentation can there be with regard to them?
物质身体是由五大元素组合而成。只有当这五大元素结合后，肉眼才能看到它。死亡之后，身体瓦解，五大元素回归其本源，便不可见了。因此，身体只在中间阶段显现。儿子、朋友、老师、父亲、母亲、妻子、兄弟姐妹等关系，都是通过身体，因执着和痴迷（Moha）而形成的。正如木板在河流中聚散离合，正如朝圣者在旅店中相聚又分离，父亲、母亲、儿女和兄弟姐妹在这个世间也是如此聚散。这个世界是一个巨大的旅店，人们在此相聚又分离。一个陶罐，在开始和结束时都不存在。即使你在中间看到了它，也应认为它是虚幻的，并非真实存在。同样，身体在开始和结束时都不存在。凡是开始和结束都不存在的事物，在中间也必然是虚幻的。你必须认识到，身体在中间阶段也并非真实存在。凡是如此理解身体及其所有基于身体的人际关系者，就不会悲伤。
The physical body is a combination of the five elements. It is seen by the physical eyes only after the five elements have entered into such combination. After death? the body disintegrates and the five elements go back to their source it cannot be seen. Therefore? the body can be seen only in the middle state. The relationship as son? friend? teacher? father? mother? wife? brother and sister is formed through the body on account of attachment and Moha (delusion). Just as planks unite and separate in a river? just as pilgrims unite and separate in a public inn? so also fathers? mothers? sons and brothers unite and separate in this world. This world is a very big public inn. People unite and separate.There is no pot in the beginning and in the end. Even if you see the pot in the middle? you should think and feel that it is illusory and does not really exist. So also there is no body in the beginning and in the end. That which does not exist in the beginning and in the end must be illusory in the middle also. You must think and feel that the body does not really exist in the middle as well.He who thus understands the nature of the body and all human relationships based on it? will not grieve.
