測云：如佛本行經云：如來未成道時，安陀偈師所學算法，問師而言閻浮提中有幾極微？偈師答言：算數不得說。問：由建陀羅幾微塵成？答：此亦不說，若如是者，更無所學。又法華經云：過微塵數世界，又不可思議經云：一切世界入一微塵，聖教如是，何故說無極微耶？解云：經據意識相分極微故說有，論約本法故云無。是不違。

Ce says: As stated in the Abhiniṣkramaṇa Sūtra, before the Tathāgata achieved enlightenment, in the mathematics learned from Master Andaji, he questioned the master, saying: 'How many atoms are there in Jambudvīpa?' The versifying master replied: 'Calculation cannot express it.' He asked: 'How many dust particles form Mt. Yugandhara?' He answered: 'This also cannot be told; if it is like this, there is nothing further to learn.' Furthermore, the Lotus Sūtra says: 'worlds numbering beyond dust particles'; and the Acintya Sūtra says: 'all worlds enter a single dust particle.' Since the noble teachings are thus, for what reason is it said that atoms do not exist? The explanation says: The sūtras speak of existence based on the atoms that are objective aspects of the mental consciousness; the treatise speaks of non-existence in terms of the fundamental dharmas. Thus there is no contradiction.
