___15. [Q.] Reverend Sir ! What is the figure and nature of the human beings residing in Vidyadhar colonies (Shrenis)? __[Ans.] Gautam ! The body-structure, figure, height and life-span of the residents is of many different types. (They have life-span of many years. Out of them some take re-birth in hell, some as sub-humans, some as human beings and some as celestial living beings. Some attain omniscience, salvation and liberation from this mundane world) and thus bring a total end of all the miseries. In the land of Vidyadhars on both sides of Vaitadhya mountain at a height of ten yojans each there are two colonies of abhiyogya gods namely serving angels of Shakra, Lokapals and the like the residence of peripatetic gods. They are eastwest in length and north-south in width. There width is ten yojan each and length is that of the mountain. Those two colonies of residences are surrounded by two padmavar-vedikas and two forest areas on both the sides. In length, both of them are equal to the length of the mountain. Their description may be understood similar to the one mentioned earlier.
