"Venerable Sir! Would he be above, would he be below, [or] would he be across?"
"Gautama! He could be above, he could be below, or he could be across. If he is above, he could be on the circular Vaitāḍhya mountains in the Śabdāpātī, Vikaṭāpātī, Gandhāvatī, and Mālyavat ranges; in terms of conveyance, he could be in the Saumanasa forest or the Pāṇḍaka forest. If he is below, he could be in a pit or a cave; in terms of conveyance, he could be in the underworld or in a celestial mansion. If he is across, he could be in the fifteen realms of karmic activity; in terms of conveyance, he could be in a portion of the two and a half continents and oceans. Venerable Sir, how many of them could there be at one single moment?"
"Gautama! At minimum one, two, or three; at maximum ten. For that reason, Gautama, it is said thus: 'Without having heard from an omniscient one or up to a female lay follower of his faction, a certain person may attain the hearing of the Dharma proclaimed by an omniscient one, [while] a certain person, without having heard from an omniscient one or up to a female lay follower of his faction, may not attain the hearing of the Dharma proclaimed by an omniscient one, up to: a certain person may produce omniscience, [while] a certain person may not produce omniscience.'"
