[173] "Here, Sāriputta, having encompassed mind with mind, I understand a certain person thus: 'This person is practicing in such a way, conducting himself in such a way, and has entered upon such a path that, with the breaking up of the body, after death, he will be reborn in the realm of ghosts (pittivisaya).' Then at a later time, with the divine eye (dibbacakkhu), which is purified and surpasses the human, I see that person — with the breaking up of the body, after death, reborn in the realm of ghosts — experiencing feelings (vedanā) that are for the most part painful. Suppose, Sāriputta, there were a tree growing on uneven ground, with sparse foliage, casting dappled shade; and then a man were to come along, scorched by the heat, overcome by the heat, weary, thirsty, and parched, set out by a path going one way only toward that very tree. A man with good eyes, seeing him, would say: 'This good man is practicing in such a way, conducting himself in such a way, and has entered upon such a path that he will come to this very tree.' Then at a later time he would see him seated or lying down in the shade of that tree, experiencing feelings that are for the most part painful. So too, Sāriputta, having encompassed mind with mind, I understand a certain person here thus: 'This person is practicing in such a way, conducting himself in such a way, and has entered upon such a path that, with the breaking up of the body, after death, he will be reborn in the realm of ghosts.' Then at a later time, with the divine eye, which is purified and surpasses the human, I see that person — with the breaking up of the body, after death, reborn in the realm of ghosts — experiencing feelings that are for the most part painful."
