Q. 122. Bhante! Beneath the world named Ratnaprabha, are the thunders sounded?
A. 122. Yes, they are sounded by all the three.
Q. 123. Bhante! Beneath the world named Ratnaprabha, are there coarse fire-bodies ?
A. 123. Gautama! It is not correct to say so. This prohibition applies to all souls of living beings except those with oblique movements.
Q. 124. Bhante! Beneath the world named Ratnaprabha, are there the moon, etc....till planetary bodies?
A. 124. It is not correct to say so.
Q. 125. Bhante! Beneath the world named Ratnaprabhā, are there the beams of the moon and the rays of the sun?
A. 125. It is not correct to say so. This is to be repeated for the second world; and the same for the third world, difference in this case being that these are done by devas, and by asuras, not by nagas. So about the fourth world, difference being that these are done by devas alone, not by asuras, nor by nagas; and thereafter, for the remaining worlds, these are done by devas alone.
