"Venerable Sir, how extensive is the Loka declared to be?"
"Gautama, this Jambūdvīpa island, innermost of all islands and oceans, [measures] up to one hundred thousand yojanas in length and breadth, and three hundred sixteen thousand two hundred twenty-seven yojanas, three krośas, one hundred twenty-eight dhanuṣas, thirteen aṅgulas, and a half-aṅgula, slightly exceeded, in circumference.
At that time and in that moment, six deities of great supernatural power up to great happiness might stand completely surrounding the Mandaracūlikā on Mount Mandara in Jambūdvīpa island. Below, four senior Dikkumārīs, taking four balls of oblation, standing facing outward in the four directions of Jambūdvīpa island, would cast those four balls of oblation outward simultaneously. Gautama, each one of those deities is capable of quickly seizing those four balls of oblation before they reach the surface of the earth. Gautama, those deities, with that supreme, rapid, swift, fierce, winning, adept, speedy, quick, energetic, divine godly movement—one deity set out facing east, one deity set out facing south, one deity set out facing west, one deity set out facing north, one deity set out facing upward, and one deity set out facing downward.
At that time and in that moment, a boy with a lifespan of one thousand years was born. Then that boy's parents die, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Loka. Then that boy's lifespan expires, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Loka. Then that boy's bone marrow perishes, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Loka. Then that boy's family lineage up to the seventh generation perishes, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Loka. Then even that boy's name and lineage perish, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Loka.
Venerable Sir, for those deities, is the traversed [space] greater, or the untraversed [space] greater?"
"Gautama, the traversed is greater, the untraversed is not greater; the untraversed is an innumerablth part of the traversed, and the traversed is innumerable times the untraversed. Gautama, the Loka is declared to be this extensive."
"Venerable Sir, how extensive is the Aloka declared to be?"
"Gautama, this Samayakṣetra [measures] forty-five hundred thousand yojanas in length and breadth, and one crore, forty-two hundred thousand, thirty thousand, two hundred forty-nine yojanas, slightly exceeded, in circumference.
At that time and in that moment, ten deities of great supernatural power up to great happiness might stand completely surrounding the Mandaracūlikā on Mount Mandara in Jambūdvīpa island. Below, eight senior Dikkumārīs, taking eight balls of oblation, standing facing outward in the four directions and four intermediate directions of Mount Mānuṣottara, would cast those eight balls of oblation outward simultaneously. Gautama, each one of those deities is capable of quickly seizing those eight balls of oblation before they reach the surface of the earth. Gautama, those deities, with that supreme, rapid, swift, fierce, winning, adept, speedy, quick, energetic, divine godly movement, standing at the end of the Loka, by a hypothetical assumption—one deity set out facing east, one deity set out facing south-east, one deity set out facing south, one deity set out facing south-west, one deity set out facing west, one deity set out facing north-west, one deity set out facing north, one deity set out facing north-east, one deity set out facing upward, and one deity set out facing downward.
At that time and in that moment, a boy with a lifespan of one hundred thousand years was born. Then that boy's parents die, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Aloka. Then that boy's lifespan expires, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Aloka. Then that boy's bone marrow perishes, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Aloka. Then that boy's family lineage up to the seventh generation perishes, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Aloka. Then even that boy's name and lineage perish, yet those deities do not reach the end of the Aloka.
Venerable Sir, for those deities, is the traversed [space] greater, or the untraversed [space] greater?"
"Gautama, the traversed is not greater, the untraversed is greater; the untraversed is infinite times the traversed, and the traversed is an infiniteth part of the untraversed. Gautama, the Aloka is declared to be this extensive."

"Venerable Sir, in a single space-point of the world, those points of one-sensed souls up to points of five-sensed souls, and points of non-sensed souls that exist bound together, touched together, bound and touched together, staying packed together—Venerable Sir, do they produce any pain or affliction in one another? Or do they cut through each other's limbs?"
"That is not the case."
"Venerable Sir, for what reason is it said: 'In a single space-point of the world, those points of one-sensed souls up to staying packed together do not produce any pain or affliction in one another, nor cut through each other's limbs'?"
"Gautama, suppose there were an actress—adorned in lovely attire, an abode of amorous beauty; skilled in harmonious movement, laughter, speech, gesturing, charm, grace, conversation, and polite etiquette; endowed with beautiful breasts, hips, face, hands, feet, and eyes, charm, beauty, youth, and grace—who, in a theatre crowded with hundreds of people, thousands of people, hundreds of thousands of people, demonstrates a certain mode of dance out of thirty-two varieties of dance. Now Gautama, would those spectators look at that actress from all around with unwinking gaze?"
"Yes, [they would] look at [her]."
"Then Gautama, do those gazes converge from all around upon that actress?"
"Yes, they converge."
"Gautama, do those gazes produce any pain or affliction in that actress? Or do they cut through her limbs?"
"That is not the case."
"Or does that actress produce any pain or affliction in those gazes? Or does she cut through their limbs?"
"That is not the case."
"Or do those gazes produce any pain or affliction in one another's gaze? Or do they cut through each other's limbs?"
"That is not the case."
"For that reason, Gautama, it is said: 'In a single space-point of the world, those points of one-sensed souls up to staying packed together do not produce any pain or affliction in one another, nor cut through each other's limbs.'"

"Venerable Sir, between soul-points in a minimal state in a single space-point of the world, soul-points in a maximal state, and all souls, which are fewer, more, equal, or especially greater in comparison with which?"
"Gautama, least of all are the soul-points in a minimal state in a single space-point of the world; all souls are innumerably times more; the soul-points in a maximal state are especially greater."
"So it is, Venerable Sir! So it is, Venerable Sir!"
