1. Sri Suka said:— The terrestrial system is only of this extent and it has been described with an account of its dimensions and characteristics. 2. In the same terms indeed (i.e., to be of the same symmetrical dimensions), the extent of the heavenly regions is described by those who know it, just as the two halves are of certain beans; and between them is placed the Antariksha or mid-air which is bounded by the line where both the halves meet (i.e., the horizon).
