-5131 STANDARD OF SAMKHĀ (SAMKHAPPAMĀNA) 187 placed, that also is accommodated. When (hog-plums) are thus placed again and again, there will be a (last) hog-plum which being placed, the platform will be completely) filled (with hog-plums) (and there will be another) hog-plum which will not find place there.
509. Thus when the number) 'one' is added to the maximum numerable (number described above), there is the minimum low-grade innumerable number, and after that there are places of neither minimum nor maximum (numbers) till the maximum low-grade innumerable (number) is not arrived at.
510. How much is the maximum low-grade innumerable (number) ?1 The maximum low-grade innumerable (number) is (equal to the minimum low-grade innumerable (number) raised to the power of itself, less one.? Or, the maximum low-grade innumerable (number) is (equal to) the minimum innumerable (number) self-raised, less one.
511. How much is the minimum innumerable (number) ?4 The minimum innumerable (number) self-raised is (equal to the minimum low-grade innumerable number raised to the power of itself, in its completeness. Or, the minimum innumerable (number) self-raised is (equal to the maximum low-grade innumerable (number), plus one.
An avaliya (vide sutta No. 367) also (stands for) the same (number of time-instants, that is, the minimum innumerable (number) self-raised). (And) after that there are places which are neither minimum nor. maximum, till the maximum innumerable (number) self-raised is not arrived at.
512. How much is the maximum innumerable (number) selfraised? The maximum innumerable (number) self-raised is (equal to) the (number represented by) an ävaliya multiplied by the minimum innumerable (number) self-raised, raised to the power of itself, less one. Or, the maximum innumerable (number) self-raised is (equal to the minimum innumerable-innumerable (number), less one.
513. How much is the minimum innumerable-innumerable (number)? The minimum innumerable-innumerable (number) is (equal to the number represented by) avalia multiplied by the minimum
1. Vide supra, sutta No. 500. 2. Suppose the minimum low-grade innumerable is x, then the maximum
low-grade innumerable number=x*- 1. 3. Vide the next sutta , No. 511. 4. Vide sulta No. 499 and 501.
