If a dead person is in Jigoku-do (Hell Realm), Gakido (the Buddhist hell of starvation) or Chikushodo (the realm of animals), he or she will be saved; if he or she is in Shurado (the world of Fighting and Slaughter), Jindo (the world of human beings in Buddhism), or Ten (the heaven in Buddhism), it is considered that he or she accumulates virtues.
もしも地獄道・餓鬼道・畜生道の三悪道に落ちていたとしても助け、修羅道・人道(仏教)・天(仏教)に居たならば徳が積まれる仕組みとなっている。
