'Conditions for cultivating the Path' refers to relying on their external protection; 'realms where goodness arises' is because merit and wisdom arise from them. 'The renunciant...' onwards next explains mutual reverence and protection. First, the monastic must gather in the laity. The 'four classes' refers to devas, humans, nāgas, and ghosts; in the unseen, it extends to three destinies, but manifestly, it is humans alone. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.820](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.3.820) - [Next: 3.822](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.3.822) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805~en-mt.3.821) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.3.821](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.3.821) · Pramāṇa
