“How many kinds of celestial realms, Venerable Sir, have been taught?”
“Gautama, four kinds of celestial realms have been taught, namely: by the division into mansion-dwelling, wandering, stellar, and abode-dwelling gods.
The mansion-dwelling gods are of ten kinds, the wandering gods of eight kinds, the stellar gods of five kinds, and the abode-dwelling gods of two kinds.”
