I was looking at this information about the 31 Planes of Existence and the chart which follows.

http://www.accesstoinsight.org/ptf/d...agga/loka.html

Excerpt:

"The suttas describe thirty-one distinct "planes" or "realms" of existence into which beings can be reborn during this long wandering through samsara"

I couldn't find a reference to the sutta/s where the Buddha mentions "31" specific planes of existence. Anyone know of a sutta that I can look at, please ?
