Tuṣita (兜率陀: the complete form is Saṃtuṣita [珊兜率陀], translated here as 'gathering of joy and pleasure'. According to the *Abhidharmakośa*, this name has three meanings: first, joyful matters; second, gathering; third, sporting. The older translations as 'joyful contentment' [喜足] or 'contentment' [知足] are not exact translations).
