He recollects manifold previous births such as one birth, two, three, four, five, ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, a hundred, a thousand, a hundred thousand, an innumerable forward cycle of births, an innumerable backward cycle of births and an innumerable forward and backward cycle of births. There I was of such name, clan, disposition, supports, experiencing such pleasant and unpleasant feelings and such a life span. Disappearing from there I was born here. Thus with all details the manifold previous births are recollected.

With the purified heavenly eye beyond human sees beings disappearing and appearing unexalted and exalted, in good and evil states, knows how beings are born according to their actions. These good beings endowed with bodily, verbal and mental misbehaviour, rebuking noble ones, with wrong view and with the wrong view of actions, after death are born in loss, in a bad state in hell. As for these good beings endowed with bodily, verbal and mental good behaviour, not rebuking noble ones, with right view and the right view of actions, after death are born in increase, in a good state in heaven.
