T!vati'sa
T!vati'sa [tayo+ti'sa. Cp. Vedic trayastri'$at] No. 33, only in cpds. denoting the 33 gods, whose chief is
Sakka, while the numeral 33 is always tetti'sa. This number occurs already in the Vedas with ref. to the
gods & is also found in Zend -- Avesta (see Haug, Language & Writings, etc., pp. 275, 276). The early
Buddhists, though they took over the number 33, rejected the superstitious beliefs in the magical influence
and mystic meaning of that & other simple numbers. And they altered the tradition. The king of the gods
had been Indra, of disreputable character from the Buddhist point of view. Him they deposed, and invented
a new god named Sakka, the opposite in every way to Indra (see for details Dial. ii.294 -- 298). Good
Buddhists, after death in this world, are reborn in heaven (sagga), by which is meant the realm of the
Thirty-three (D ii.209). There they are welcomed by the Thirty-three with a song of triumph (D ii.209, 211,
221, 227). The Thirty -- three are represented as being quite good Buddhists. Sakka their new chief and
Brahm! address them in discourses suitable only for followers of the new movement (D ii.213, 221). See
