3.383

問中二:初陳疑,謂有虛空處皆有世界,有世界處皆有眾生,有眾生處皆有心行,如是境界分齊難知也。若無明下,正設難。難云:非直外境無邊分齊難知,亦復內盡心想,云何得了也?

The question has two parts: first, stating the doubt: wherever there is space there are worlds, wherever there are worlds there are sentient beings, and wherever there are sentient beings there are mental activities; such boundaries of spheres are difficult to know. From 'If avidyā' onward, directly raising the objection. The objection says: not only are external spheres limitless and their boundaries difficult to know, but internally mental thoughts are completely exhausted; how can they be fully understood?
