For all sentient beings, except those who have been reborn in the formless realms, it is the period after dying which lasts, regardless of where one will be reborn, from the ceasing of the previous existence until the actual rebirth in the next life. In this state, the sentient being possesses a mentally created body endowed with all the sense faculties. He is unhindered by objects, such as mountains and rocks, and experiences magical karmic displays. Such beings belong to the class of 'scent-eaters'. [RY]
