Since they have fragmented saṃsāra, they must have worm-bodies. If they have them, the Amitābha Sūtra says that the Buddha land is free of the three bad destinies; how then could there be eighty thousand families of worms? Affirmation and negation contradict each other; how do you explain this? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.6.19) - [Next: 6.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.6.21) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960~en-mt.6.20) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.6.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1960.6.20) · Pramāṇa
