[319] He was dwelling at Sāvatthī. … There the Blessed One … "Bhikkhus, suppose a man were to place seven little pellets the size of jujube stones upon the great earth. What do you think, bhikkhus, which is more: the seven little pellets the size of jujube stones that have been placed there, or the great earth?"
"Venerable sir, the great earth alone is more. The seven little pellets the size of jujube stones that have been placed there are trifling. Compared with the great earth, the seven little pellets the size of jujube stones that have been placed there do not amount to a hundredth part, nor to a thousandth part, nor to a hundred-thousandth part."
