3.143

Furthermore, Buddhist sūtras take a trichiliocosm as the universe ruled by a single transformation Buddha. ('Ruled' is in the departing tone; when a lord presides over the world, it is called ruling. A sūtra says: 'Three thousand small chiliocosms make a medium chiliocosm; three thousand medium chiliocosms make a great trichiliocosm.' Thus a trichiliocosm is the realm governed by a single transformation Buddha.)
