[618] For whomever the nose faculty (ghānindriya) does not arise, does the equanimity faculty (upekkhindriya) not arise for that one? For those without a nose (aghānaka) who are being reborn with equanimity (upekkhā), the nose faculty does not arise, but it is not the case that the equanimity faculty does not arise for them. For all who are passing away, and for those without a nose who are being reborn without equanimity, for them the nose faculty does not arise and the equanimity faculty does not arise. Or else, for whomever the equanimity faculty does not arise, does the nose faculty not arise for that one? For those with a nose (saghānaka) who are being reborn without equanimity, the equanimity faculty does not arise, but it is not the case that the nose faculty does not arise for them. For all who are passing away, and for those without a nose who are being reborn without equanimity, for them the equanimity faculty does not arise and the nose faculty does not arise.
