Popis:	The general covariant Fokker-Planck equations associated with the two different versions of covariant Langevin equation in Part I of this series of work are derived, both lead to the same reduced Fokker-Planck equation for the non-normalized one particle distribution function (1PDF). The relationship between various distribution functions is clarified in this process. Several macroscopic quantities are introduced by use of the 1PDF, and the results indicate an intimate connection with the description in relativistic kinetic theory. The concept of relativistic equilibrium state of the heat reservoir is also clarified, and, under the working assumption that the Brownian particle should approach the same equilibrium distribution as the heat reservoir in the long time limit, a general covariant version of Einstein relation arises.
