Therefore, when this sutra lists the assembly, there are those designated as kings among the devas, the eight classes, lions, elephants, birds, and beasts; this intent can be understood from that. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.4.18) - [Next: 4.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.4.20) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035~en-mt.4.19) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.4.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.4.19) · Pramāṇa
