svādūdakasya purato dṛśyate 'lokasaṃsthitiḥ
dviguṇā kāñcanī bhūmiḥ sarvajantuvivarjitā //
Beyond the sea of fresh water is a region of twice its extent, where the land is of gold, and where no living beings reside. Thence extends the Lokáloka mountain, which is ten thousand Yojanas in breadth, and as many in height; and beyond it perpetual darkness invests the mountain all around; which darkness is again encompassed by the shell of the egg.
