30.17

Initially in the world there was a devaputra who passed away from the Ābhāsvara Heaven and was born into the empty palace of Great Brahmā. He was the Brahmā King. After one decrease and one increase had passed, he thought: 'There are no Brahmā-sons born into my abode' (The Brahmā King is born first and passes away last; his lifespan lasts through the sixty small kalpas of formation, abiding, destruction, and voidness).
