These seven parts of the world are separated from each other by world mountains (*vāsadhara-pavyaya*) extending from east to west, so that in the south between Bharaha and Hemavaya we have Cullahimavanta (Himavan), between Hemavaya and Harivāsa: Mahāhimavanta, between Harivāsa and Mahāvideha: Nisadha; in the north between Eravaya and Hiraṇṇavaya: Sihari, between Hiraṇṇavaya and Rammaga: Ruppi, and between Rammaga and Mahāvideha: Nilavanta.
