2.13

【Tuṣita】 Here translated as 'Wondrous Contentment' (Miaozu). Newly rendered as Tuṣita, meaning 'Knowing Contentment' (Zhizu). The *Xīyù jì* says: "Tuṣita, formerly called Doushuotuo or Doushutuo, is corrupt. It is because they know how to be content regarding the five desires." The *Buddhabhūmi-śāstra* calls it 'Joyous Contentment' (Xizu), meaning that bodhisattvas in their final rebirth teach and transform within it, mostly cultivating joyous contentment.
