In Ratnaprabhã and all other earths, there are Hells = dwelling place for the lives of Hell. The dwelling places are situated in the middle portion of all the earth of Ratnaprabhã as also in all the other earths excluding 1000 yojans at the top portion and 1000 yojans at the bottom portion i.e. The width of Ratnaprabhã earth is 180000 yojans. The Hell dwelling places are situated in the middle portion of 178000 yojans, excluding 1000 yojans at the top portion and 1000 yojans at the bottom portion. Similar is the position in all the earths; Except in the 7th Hell, where the top portion of 52,500 yojans and the bottom portion of 52,500 yojans are excluded and in the middle portion of 3000 yojans there are dwelling places for the lives of Hell.
1 Yojan= 8 miles The distance between 2 earth [ Hell ) is infinite crores yojans. There are 13, 11, 9, 7, 5, 3 and 1 Praster in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th earth of Hell respectively. The Prataro = Praster is similar to the surface of the top floor of a building. There are 30 lakh, 25 lakh, 15 lakh, 10 lakh, 3 lakh, 99,995 and 5 dwelling places in the earth of Ratnaprabhã and other earths of the seven Hells, respectively.
As there is ample of precious stones in 1st Hell it is known as Ratnaprabhã [Ratna = Precious and semi precious stones]. As there is abundance of stones in 2nd Hell, it is known as Sharkāraprabhã. As there is plenty of Sand in 3rd Hell, it is known as Valukaprabhã. As there is multiple of mud in 4th Hell, it is known as Pankprabhã. The 5th Hell is known as Dhumprabhã as the atmosphere there is highly smoky. The 6th Hell is known as Tamahprabhā as there is much more darkness. The 7th Hell is known as Tamahtamahprabhā as there is extreme pitch darkness. The thickness of Ghanodadhi in each and every Hell, is 20 thousand yojans. The thickness of Ghanavãt and Tanuvaat in all the Hells, are of infinite yojans and the same is much more thicker, on every next earthHell, in downward direction.
Question :- Why is it so that air / wind is always contained in water ? Why is it so that water too, is contained (only) in the earth ? And why water doesnot gets spread all over and destruct Universe ? Why such a situation prevails constantly from the beginning of the creation / since the time, infinite ?
There are 13, 11, 9, 7, 5, 3 and 1 Prasters (praters] in the seven earths such as Ratnaprabhã and other earths respectively. The prasters are similar to the surface of the flooring of the top floor house of a building. These praters are one upon another and so on. There are Hell - dwelling places in those praters. There are 30 lakh, 25 lakh, 5 lakh, 10 lakh, 3 lakh, 99,995 and 5 dwelling places in the Ratnaprabhã earth and other earths, respectively. These dwelling places in Hell are of 3 main categories such as Indrak, Panktigat and Pushpavakirna. The Hell - dwelling places which are situated exactly in the centre are called as Indrak. The Hell - dwelling places situated in all the direction in the form of rows, is called as Panktigat.

All the Indrak Hell - dwelling places are round / spherical in shape, Panktigat are triangular, square in shape and/or mullar-shaped. Pushpavakirna Hell - dwelling places are of various ugly and unholy shapes.
