[154] According to the Prajnapana Sutra (in relation to Uppaata, Samudghaata and Svasthaana), in countless parts of the Lok, there reside the Dakshinatya Asurakumara Devas and Devis. They (Dakshinatya Asurakumara Devas) are black, have lips like the Lohitaaksha Ratna, etc. All the descriptions, up to "they live happily (Bhujamaana Viharanti)", should be understood according to Sutra 178-1. In the same way, there are Trayastrishka and Lokapala Devas, etc. (over whom they exercise dominion, etc., and over whom they rule, etc., and over whom they wander, etc.). In this way, it should be mentioned everywhere that "they are the inhabitants of the Bhavanas". [2] "Chamre Aththa Asurakumari De Asurakumaraaya Parivasati Kaale Mahanila Sarisae Jaav' Pabhasemane". From this, it should be understood that there are thirty-four lakh Bhavanavaasis, sixty-four thousand Samaanikas, thirty-three Trayastrishka Devas, four Lokapalas, five Aggramahishis with their families, three Parishads, seven armies, seven army commanders, four sixty-four thousand, i.e., two lakh fifty-six thousand Praatmarakshaka Devas, and many other Dakshinatya Asurakumara Devas and Devis, over whom he exercises dominion and leadership, and over whom he wanders, etc. [179-2] In these (aforementioned places), the Indra of the (Dakshinatya) Asurakumaras, Asura Raja Chamrendra, resides. He is black, like the Mahanila, etc. All the descriptions, up to "he shines brightly (Pabhasemane)", should be understood according to Sutra 178-2. He (Chamrendra) there exercises dominion over thirty-four lakh Bhavanavaasis, sixty-four thousand Samaanikas, thirty-three Trayastrishka Devas, four Lokapalas, five Aggramahishis with their families, three Parishads, seven armies, seven army commanders, four sixty-four thousand, i.e., two lakh fifty-six thousand Praatmarakshaka Devas, and many other Dakshinatya Asurakumara Devas and Devis, and over whom he wanders, etc. 180. [1] "Tell me, Master! What is the location of the Uttrilla Asurakumara Devas, whether they are present or absent?" "Tell me, Master! Where do the Uttrilla Asurakumara Devas reside?" "Go to Jambudvipa, on the Mandara mountain, to the north of the Imoushe Rayan Prabha, on the earth, at a distance of one hundred thousand Yojanas to the north, and one thousand Yojanas in width, one thousand Yojanas in depth, and eighty-eight thousand Yojanas in the middle. There, the Uttrilla Asurakumara Devas have thirty thousand Bhavanavaasis." This is certain. They (Bhavanas) are round on the outside and square on the inside. The rest, like the Dakshinatya, etc., should be understood according to the text. [1] "Jaav" and "Jaha" indicate the entire text in that place. [2] Granthagam 1100.
