Sixth, 'mindfulness of devas' means with concentrated essence to be mindful of devas: pure in body, speech, and mind, not committing foul deeds, bodily form perfected through preceptive practice, the body radiating light illuminating everywhere; attaining that divine body as the fruit and retribution of wholesome karma, attaining that divine body with manifold practices complete. Eliminating all chaotic thoughts, one of oneself attains nirvāṇa. Never departing from mindfulness of devas, one then obtains merit. This is termed 'mindfulness of devas.'
