Aparāpi upamā – ekā kira pūtipajā itthī dasa dārake vijāyi. Tesu nava matā, eko hatthagato marati, aparo kucchiyaṃ. Sā nava dārake mate dasamañca mīyamānaṃ disvā kucchigate ālayaṃ vissajji ‘‘ayampi etesaññeva sadiso bhavissatī’’ti. Tattha tassā itthiyā navannaṃ dārakānaṃ maraṇānussaraṇaṃ viya yogino atītasaṅkhārānaṃ nirodhadassanaṃ, hatthagatassa mīyamānabhāvadassanaṃ viya yogino paccuppannānaṃ nirodhadassanaṃ, kucchigate ālayavissajjanaṃ viya anāgatānaṃ nirodhadassanaṃ. Tassevaṃ passato etasmiṃ khaṇe uppajjati bhayatupaṭṭhānañāṇaṃ.
另一个譬喻：如有位妇人，她一产下儿子，儿子即死，她已生了十子。[PTS 646]其中有九位已死，一位正抱在手中而死。还有一位在胎中。她见九子已死，第十位正在死，便放弃对胎儿的爱着，知道「这胎儿亦必同他们一样」。这里瑜伽者之观过去的诸行已灭，如妇人之念九子已死；观现在的（诸行）正灭，如见抱着的（第十子）正死；观未来的（诸行之）灭，如放弃对胎儿的爱着。作如是观者，即于此剎那生起怖畏现起智。
Ñ(XXI,31): Also another simile: a woman with an infected womb had, it seems, given birth to ten children. [646] Of these, nine had already died and one was dying in her hands. There was another in her womb. Seeing that nine were dead and the tenth was dying, she gave up hope about the one in her womb, thinking, 'It too will fare just like them'. Herein, the meditator's seeing the cessation of past formations is like the woman's remembering the death of the nine children. The meditator's seeing the cessation of those present is like her seeing the moribund state of the one in her hands. His seeing the cessation of those in the future is like her giving up hope about the one in her womb. When he sees in this way, knowledge of appearance as terror arises in him at that stage.
