[1795] "So too, bhikkhus, few are those beings who, when they pass away as devas (devā), are reborn among human beings; rather, far more numerous are those beings who, when they pass away as devas, are reborn in hell (niraya). ... are reborn in the animal realm (tiracchānayoni). ... are reborn in the domain of ghosts (pittivisaya)."
