Answer: "Although this is said to be pure, it is still inferior to the Four Heavenly Kings; one should know that the Western Direction surpasses Paranirmita-vaśavartin. Furthermore, this realm has the three evil destinies, female form, sexual desire, and the filth of bodily waste; how could it be comparable to that [land]? Since the ground is not superior, one ultimately retrogresses; that is why that [land] was praised."
