    “Suppose there were four men standing in the four quarters. Each of them was extremely fast, with an extremely mighty stride.

    They’re as fast as a light arrow easily shot across the shadow of a palm tree by a well-trained expert archer with a strong bow.

    Furthermore, take a mendicant who, going totally beyond perceptions of form, with the disappearance of perceptions of impingement, not focusing on perceptions of diversity, aware that ‘space is infinite’, enters and remains in the dimension of infinite space.
