Asaṃkhyeya is the fifty-second, one among these sixty numbers. By the time the author of the treatise appeared in the world, the first fifty-two were extant, while the reciters had forgotten the last eight. If one counts great kalpas up to the fifty-second among these sixty numbers, it is called a kalpa-asaṃkhyeya. When this kalpa-asaṃkhyeya is accumulated to three, it is described in the sūtras as three kalpa-asaṃkhyeyas. It is not that reckoning calculations are unable to count and know it; thus it can be called three kalpa-asaṃkhyeyas. The Vibhāṣā, fascicle 177, states: "Altogether there are seven explanations." This treatise corresponds to the third explanation, as fully explained therein. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 12.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.12.27) - [Next: 12.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.12.29) - [Up: 12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.12) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821~en-mt.12.28) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [俱舍論頌疏論本](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1823.12.22) — Classical Chinese - [阿毘達磨俱舍論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.darsana.abhidharma.abhidharmakosa!bhasya*zh-xuanzang.12.14) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.12.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1821.12.28) · Pramāṇa
