अव्यक्तादीनि भूतानि व्यक्तमध्यानि भारत | अव्यक्तनिधनान्येव तत्र का परिदेवना
avyaktādīni bhūtāni vyaktamadhyāni bhārata . avyaktanidhanānyeva tatra kā paridevanā
婆羅多後裔啊，一切眾生始於無形，顯現於其中間狀態，終歸無形。於此有何悲嘆？
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?
肉身是五大元素的組合。只有當五大元素結合後，肉眼才能看見它。死亡後，身體分解，五大元素回歸其源，便不可見。因此，身體只能在中間狀態被看見。父子、朋友、師徒、父母、夫妻、兄弟姐妹等關係，皆因執著和幻覺（Moha）而透過身體形成。正如木板在河流中聚散，正如朝聖者在客棧中聚散，父母、子女、兄弟姐妹亦如是於此世間聚散。此世間是一個巨大的客棧，人們在此聚散。器皿始終不存在，終亦不存在。即使汝在中間看見器皿，汝亦應思維並感受其虛幻不實。同理，身體始終不存在，終亦不存在。凡始終不存在之物，其中間亦必是虛幻。汝必須思維並感受身體在中間亦非真實存在。凡能如此理解身體及其所有人際關係本質者，將不會悲傷。
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.
