Its highest stage is innumerable times more. || 273 ||
The lowest stage of the state of bondage and the state of subsidence of the second stage is innumerable times more. || 274 ||
Its highest stage is innumerable times more. || 275 ||
The lowest stage of the state of bondage and the state of subsidence of the third stage is innumerable times more. || 276 ||
Its highest stage is innumerable times more. || 277 ||
