The king said: ‘Nāgasena, is there any one who after death is not reindividualised?’

‘Some are so, and some not.’

‘Who are they?’

‘A sinful being is reindividualised, a sinless one is not.’

‘Will you be reindividualised?’

‘If when I die, I die with craving for existence in my heart, yes; but if not, no.’

‘Very good, Nāgasena!’
