**Question 115:** What is the nature of the arrangement of the categorized celestial abodes (vimanas)?
**Answer:** In the first celestial abode (Indraka) called Ritu, which is the size of the human realm (Manush Kshetra), i.e., 45,00,000 yojanas in extent, there are 62 categorized vimanas in each of the four directions. Moving forward, in the second, third, fourth, and subsequent Indrakas, they decrease by one (61, 60, 59, etc.) successively, until only one categorized vimana remains in each of the four directions of the longitudinal and latitudinal Indrakas. The final Indraka called Sarvarthasiddhi, which is the size of Jambudvipa, i.e., 1,00,000 yojanas in extent, has one categorized vimana in each of the four directions.
**Question 116:** On what basis are all the vimanas situated in the sky?
**Answer:** The vimanas of the Saudharmeshana Kalpa are situated above water. The vimanas of the Sanatkumara and Mahendra Kalpas are situated above air. The vimanas of the eight Kalpas from Brahma Swarga to Sahasrar Swarga are situated above both water and air. And all the vimanas from Anantadi to Sarvarthasiddhi are situated in pure space (akasha).
