(Q.) Reverend Sir ! Where is Chull Himavan peak located on Chull Himavan mountain ?
(Ans.] In the west of Sidhayatan peak and to the east of Bharat peak, there is Chull-Himavan peak on Chull Himavan mountain. The height, 4 width and the circumference of Chull Himavan peak is identical to that of Siddhayatan peak.
There is a very much levelled and attractive piece of land on that top. At the very centre of it there is a grand palace which is sixty two and a half yojan high, 31 yojan 1 kos wide and the same in length (as it is equal in shape from all sides). It is raised very high. It appears to be as if it is laughing as it has extremely white aura. Many types of jewels and precious stones are studded on it. So it appears to be very wonderful. It appears to be very attractive due to Vijay-Vaijayanti flags, buntings and umbrellas fixed on it. Its tops are very high. It seems that they want to cross the sky. The jewels fixed in its mesh appear to be like open eyes of the palace. Its small tops are made of jewels and precious stones. The pictures of blossomed hundred-petaled lotus, tilak, jewels and half-moon are sketched on it. It is decorated with many garlands made of precious stones. It is covered with soft attractive sand from inside and outside. 51 That sand is like that of Vajra jewel and is of the colour of burnt gold. Its touch is pleasant and its look is attractive. It provides ecstatic pleasure. Inside that palace, there is a very much levelled and attractive area. Its detailed description up to throne may be understood as mentioned before.
