Kalpa Sutra looking bright and pleasant because of the rolling and rerolling of sharp and distinct waves; with camphor-like white foam coming up from the lashing (tails) of the great tortoises, fish, whales, timingila, niruddha and tilitilika and spreading far; with big rivers rushing into the sea and creating whirlpools called gangāvarta, wherein water is incessantly restless and moving round.

Then (she saw) a celestial abode, the very best among the vimānas, abode of perpetual joy and happiness, ever lit and lotus-like; with brilliance like the disc of the morning sun; its one thousand and eight excellent columns made of fine gold, inlaid with great gems, looking like a brilliant light in the sky; with pearls fastened to its glittering curtain; decorated with frescoes depicting wolves, bulls, horses, men, dolphins, birds, snakes, kinnaras, rurus, sarabhas, camaras, saṁsaktakas (a beast of prey), elephants, wild creepers and lotus creepers. There was audible all the time music arising from the concerts played by the gandharvas. The surrounding was all the time sounded by the rumblings of thick and rain clouds. The great din of the drums of the gods even penetrated the world of living beings. All the time, beautiful fragrance was emanating from the burning incense, the best of black aloe, kundarukka and turukka, and the whole place was filled up by the scented fumes. It (vimāna) shed continuous light, was white and of excellent lustre, delight for the highest of gods, and affording joy and pleasure. 44
