དེ་ཅིའི་སླད་དུ་ཞེ་ན། སེམས་ཅན་མ་མཆིས་པ་དང་སེམས་ཅན་དབེན་པའི་སླད་དུ་སྟེ།
Similarly, if the fields in each of the world systems of the ten directions, numerous as the grains of sand of the river Gaṅgā, were completely filled with many tathāgatas like a thicket of naḍa reeds, or a thicket of rushes, or a grove of sugarcane, or a thicket of bamboo, or a paddy field of rice, or a field of sesame, and were those tathāgatas for an eon or for even more than an eon to explain the Dharma, and were each of those tathāgatas to bring immeasurable, countless beings to final nirvāṇa, still, a reduction in or filling of the world of beings would not be discerned.
