There are four continents where Humans live according to Buddhist cosmology. Likely, some Humans live in the animal realm/plane. I guess, there are Humans in Pretha and Asura realms too. Abhidhamma is a single discourse, and the Buddha taught it to his mother and other beings in Trāyastriṃśa heaven for three months while going to the upper (Uttar) continent called Uttarakuru to receive meals from humans to partake meals. Uttarakuru continent is closer to heaven, but according to the texts “When it is midday in Aparagodānīya, the sun is setting in Jambudvīpa and rising in Uttarakuru, while it is midnight in Pūrvavideha.” If some modern humans who live in Jambūddhīpa (the lowest continent) are capable and intelligent enough to understand those teachings, then I think that they should know the existence of those teachings whether they like to study them or not. May Triple Gems Bless You.
