Ghanodadhi—the sea of clouds surrounding the aṇḍa, supported by the ever-blazing energy (fire) of clouds (ghana-tejas) like the burning iron rod, outside is a vast region supported by Ghana vāta, which rests again on ākāśa. The last is supported by mahat, pradhāna being a prop to mahat. Br II 21. 24-7; Vā. 49 153-55; 50 82-4.
