(Ans.] Gautam ! When one goes from the north Mandar mountain of fi Jambu continent to another Jambu continent and further goes another
12,000 yojan, then one finds Yamikas, the capitals of Yamak Devas. They are 12,000 in length and breadth. Their circumference is a little more
than 37,948 yojan. Every capital has a boundary wall, which is thirty fi seven and a half yojan high, twelve and a half yojan wide at the base, six fi and a half yojan in the middle and three yojan half kos wide at the top.
They appear to be round from outside and quadrangular from within in
view of the corners. They are broad at the base, a bit narrow in the fi middle and still narrower at the top. They are all shining like jewels and fi are clean. They are shining due to the projections in the shape of the head of monkey and are made of many types of jewels of five colours.
They are half a kos high and 500 dhanush thick. They are all bright and f jewel-like. Fi At each side of Yamika capitals, there are 125 gates, sixty two and a
half yojan high and thirty one and a quarter yojan wide. The passage of # entrance is also of that size. The entire description relating to bright, fi excellent golden pillar, gate and eight auspicious things may be fi understood similar to that mentioned in description of the Viman in Raj
prashniya Sutra. # In the four sides of Yamika capitals with a gap of 500 yojan there are f four forests namely—(1) Ashok forest, (2) Saptaparn forest, (3) Champak
forest, and (4) Mango forest. They are more than 1,200 yojan long and 500 yojan wide. Every forest garden has a boundary wall. The description of forest, the land, the palace and the like is similar to that mentioned earlier.
In every Yamika city there is a beautiful levelled land. Their E description is the same as earlier mentioned. In the middle of these i levelled attractive areas there are two platforms. They are 1,200 yojan in
length and breadth. Their circumference is 3,795 yojan. They are half a kos thick. They are completely golden like high class Jambunad and
