One hundred thousand, indeed thirty-three thousand,
and nine hundred and fifty, crore-of-crores of stellar constellations,

"Venerable Sir, how many moons have shone, shine, or will shine in the Lavaṇa Ocean?"
In this manner, just as in the Jīvājīvābhigama down to the stars. In Dhātakīkhaṇḍa, Kālodaka, the excellent Puṣkara, the inner half of Puṣkara, and the human realm—in all these, just as in the Jīvājīvābhigama down to: the retinue of a single moon, of crores of crores of stars.
"Venerable Sir, how many moons have shone, shine, or will shine in the Puṣkaroda Ocean?"
