The Āmalaka, below the golden orb of the Kalaśa-sun, the ring of spotless rays, is the celestial world in which dwells the sun as the pericarp which is above and in the centre of its halo of filaments and its wider sheath of petals (padma-kośa). The Āmalaka and also the dome of the Harmya represent the lowest celestial level of an extra-cosmic Empyrean.¹⁹⁷
