【Trāyastriṃśa】 Dharma Master Ying says: "The Sanskrit sound is corrupted and abbreviated; correctly it should be Trāyastriṃśa. Here it means thirty-three." A verse in the *Abhidharmakośa* says: "At the summit of the Wondrously High, eighty thousand [yojanas across], dwell the Thirty-Three Gods. / At the four corners are four peaks, where the Vajrapāṇis reside. / The central palace is named Good Sight (Sudarśana), ten thousand yojanas around. / Its golden walls are half as high, and within is the Hall of Surpassing Excellence, / one thousand yojanas around."
