[642] When his mind (citta) is thus concentrated, purified, cleansed, unblemished, rid of defilements, malleable, wieldy, steady, and attained to imperturbability, he directs and inclines the mind to the knowledge (ñāṇa) of the passing away and reappearance of beings. With the divine eye (dibba-cakkhu), purified and surpassing the human, he sees beings passing away and reappearing — inferior and superior, fair and ugly, fortunate and unfortunate — and he understands beings faring according to their kamma: 'These beings, alas, sirs, who were endowed with bodily misconduct … revilers of the noble ones, holding wrong view, undertaking actions under the influence of wrong view — they, with the breaking up of the body, after death, have reappeared in a state of loss, a bad destination, a place of ruin, hell. But these beings, sirs, who were endowed with bodily good conduct … not revilers of the noble ones, holding right view, undertaking actions under the influence of right view — they, with the breaking up of the body, after death, have reappeared in a good destination, a heavenly world.' Thus with the divine eye, purified and surpassing the human, he sees beings passing away and reappearing — inferior and superior, fair and ugly, fortunate and unfortunate — and he understands beings faring according to their kamma.
