[3134 The circumference of the Kalodaka is 431,000 yojanas. The Pushkaradvipa, surrounded by the Kalodaka, has a circumference of 1,600,000 yojanas. 8431. In this context, the size of the Dvipa and the oceans is doubled progressively. Similarly, the size of the Dhataki-khanda, the Dvipa, and other regions is doubled. To clarify this, the following sutra is stated:
"There are the same number of regions and mountains in Pushkarardha." ||34||
8432. Here, the word "dvi" is repeated. Question: To what is this repetition of "dvi" referring? Answer: It is referring to the Jambudvipa, Bharata, Himavan, and other regions and mountains. Question: How is this understood? Answer: From the explanation. Just as the size of the Himavan and other mountains in the Dhataki-khanda is stated, so too is the size of the Himavan and other mountains in Pushkarardha doubled. The names are the same. There are two Isvakara and two Mandara mountains, as before. Where there is the Jambudvipa, there is the Pushkaradvipa with its family of trees. Therefore, the name of this Dvipa is established as Pushkaradvipa. Question: How did this Dvipa get the name Pushkarardha? Answer: Due to the division of the Dvipa by the Manushottara mountain, half of the Dvipa is called Pushkarardha.
8433. Here, the questioner asks: Why is the number of the Himavan and other mountains in the Jambudvipa doubled in Pushkarardha, and not in the entire Pushkaradvipa? To answer this question, the following sutra is stated:
"Humans are only present before the Manushottara mountain." ||35||
8434. In the exact middle of the Pushkaradvipa, there is a circular mountain called Manushottara, like a peak. Humans are only present before this mountain, not beyond it. Therefore, there is no division of the regions mentioned earlier beyond the Manushottara mountain. There are no Vidyadharas beyond this mountain, and
