Maitreya replied: “It drinks one hundred and eighty hu of milk, excluding the four parts consumed while in the mother's womb.” In Pūrvavideha, from the time a child is born onto the ground until the age of three, it drinks one thousand eight hundred hu of milk. In Aparagodānīya, from the time a child is born onto the ground until the age of three, it drinks eight hundred and eighty hu of milk. In Uttarakuru, when a child is born onto the ground, it sits by the roadside; passersby offer a finger for it to suckle, and in seven days it becomes an adult. In that land there is no milk. Sentient beings in the intermediate state inhale the wind. The lifespan of sentient beings in Jambudvīpa is one hundred years; the lifespan of sentient beings in Pūrvavideha is two hundred and fifty years; the lifespan of sentient beings in Aparagodānīya is five hundred years; the lifespan of human beings in Uttarakuru is one thousand years; the lifespan of sentient beings in the intermediate state is seven days. The faces of sentient beings in Jambudvīpa are wide above and narrow below; the faces of people in Pūrvavideha are round; the faces of people in Godānīya are narrow above and wide below; the faces of people in Uttarakuru are square; and the faces of sentient beings in the intermediate state resemble those of the Paranirmitavaśavartin devas (from the \*Sūtra on Sentient Beings Yet to Realize the Three Realms\*). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.65](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121.3.65) - [Next: 3.67](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121.3.67) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121~en-mt.3.66) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121.3.66](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121.3.66) · Pramāṇa
