The Buddha told Ānanda: "One hundred million, eleven thousand and sixty-two Ganges sands of lands away to the southeast of here, there is a world named Sile (Joyful Contemplation). The Buddha is named Fragrant Flame Tathāgata, Arhat, Samyaksambuddha, Vidyācaraṇasaṃpanna, Sugata, Lokavid, Anuttara, Puruṣadamyasārathi, Śāstā Devamanuṣyāṇām, Buddha, Bhagavat. Having manifested parinirvāṇa there, he came to the palace of Trāyastriṃśa Heaven. Passing through countless asaṃkhyeya kalpas, he was thirty-six times Mahābrahmā, thirty-six times in the body of Śakra, and thirty-six times a wheel-turning king, and the sentient beings he delivered never fell into the two vehicles or the evil destinies. Why is this? They were all inspired by the supernormal wisdom of the Buddhas. What do you think, Ānanda? Does the Tathāgata, the Bhagavat, have a garbhadhātu, or does he not have a garbhadhātu?"
