Plakṣa Prā-sravaṇa is the name of a locality, forty-four days’ journey from the spot where the Sarasvatī disappears. It is mentioned in the Pañcavimśa Brāhmaṇa¹ and the Jaiminīya Upaniṣad Brāhmaṇa.² In the latter text it is said that the middle of the earth is only a span (Prādeśa) to the north of it. In the Rigveda Sūtras³ the locality is called Plakṣa Prasravaṇa, and is apparently meant to designate the source of the Sarasvatī rather than the place of its reappearance. - [Previous: v2.c4.833](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.833) - [Next: v2.c4.835](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.835) - [Up: v2.c4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.834](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.834) · Pramāṇa
