देवतामूर्ति-प्रकरणम् (goad), a mace and a disc (45), should be recognised as a Narsinghi pose (mudra). It will give happiness and salvation to its worshipper. Merely looking at it will expiate sins - even the heinous sin of killing a Brahmin. (46).

Satya-loka is the highest world - the abode of Brahma. The world, a division of the Universe, is usually classified in Hindu mythology into 3 lokas-Svarga-loka or heaven, Prithvi-loka or earth, and Patala-loka or the netherworld. However, according to a fuller classification, the lokas or worlds are 14 in number, with 7 higher ones rising from the earth one above the other, and 7 lower ones descending from the earth one below the other. The higher ones are (in order of ascent) Bhur-loka, Khar-loka, Svar-loka, Mahar-loka, Janar-loka, Tapar-loka and finally Satya-loka, also called Brahma-loka. The lower lokas are Atal-loka, Vital-loka, Satal-loka, Rasatal-loka, Talatal-loka, Mahatal-loka and Patal-lok.
