It was levelled and was of proper weight. According to the then prevalent weight and measures, it was the unit of basic measurement. It was destroying the inner darkness of that cave which could not be removed by the sun, the moon, fire or precious stones. Its unique aura was spread up to a distance of twelve yojan. It was the special attribute of this ratna to keep the night in the camp of Chakravarti as bright as the day. King Bharat entered Tamisra cave alongwith his army in the light of this Ratna in order to conquer northern Bharat area. With this ratna king Bharat made 49 circles on the eastern and western walls of Tamisra cave at a distance of one yojan cach and each one of them was 500 dhanush wide. Each could brighten an area of one yojan. Each mandal (circle) was round like the wheel of a chariot and was shedding light like lunar circle. That Tamisra cave
started shining soon like the day due to 49 mandals of 500 dhanush 4 width drawn by king Bharat at a distance of one yojan each. They wer
capable of lighting up a distance up to one yojan.
