5.4.240

“Is one who knows the fourteen Pūrvas capable, Venerable Sir, of producing and displaying a thousand pots from a pot, a thousand cloths from a cloth, a thousand mats from a mat, a thousand chariots from a chariot, a thousand umbrellas from an umbrella, [and] a thousand staffs from a staff?”
“Yes, he is capable.”
“For what reason is one who knows the fourteen Pūrvas capable of producing up to displaying [them]?”
“Gautama, one who knows the fourteen Pūrvas has obtained, attained, and fully acquired infinite substances being divided by way of heap-division.
For that reason, Gautama, it is said that one who knows the fourteen Pūrvas is capable of producing and displaying a thousand pots from a pot, a thousand cloths from a cloth, a thousand mats from a mat, a thousand chariots from a chariot, a thousand umbrellas from an umbrella, [and] a thousand staffs from a staff.”
“So it is, Venerable Sir! So it is, Venerable Sir!”
