Foundations of T'ien T'ai Philosophy, p 187Next I will discuss the ten dharmas of the realms of men and gods. These are different from the four evil destinies only in that one can recognize goodness and pleasure. Their “appearance” is pure and superior. Their “nature” is good. Their “essence” is a peaceful body and mind. Their “power” is the potential capability to do good. Their “activity” is to perform good deeds and abstain from evil deeds. Their “causes” are good deeds. Their “conditions” are good [but they still have mistaken views concerning] self and possessions. Their “results” are the spontaneous arising of the results of a good mind. Their “retribution” is the experience of pleasures which are natural [to men and gods]. “Sameness” is as explained above.
