4.2.10

rāgadveṣādayo bhāvāḥ svarge'pi prabhavanti hi |
devānāṃ mānavānāñca tiraścāṃ ca tathā punaḥ ||

Therefore love, hatred and other bodily qualities all predominate equally in all bodies. Anger, jealousy, hatred, and other similar qualities arise in the Devas, men, and birds owing to some sort of dislikes on previous occasions; and love, compassion, pity, etc., arise out of some sort of likings, existing already.

Swami Vijnanananda 1921, The Sri Mad Devi Bhagavatam
