Varāha-uddhāraṇa and the Re-constitution of Bhū-maṇḍala
Earth after Pralaya
कनिष्ठया वितस्तिस्तु द्वादशांगुल उच्यते / रत्निरंगुलपर्वाणि संख्यया त्वेकविशतिः
kaniṣṭhayā vitastistu dvādaśāṃgula ucyate / ratniraṃgulaparvāṇi saṃkhyayā tvekaviśatiḥ
Vitasti, measured by the little finger, is said to be twelve aṅgula; and ratni, by the count of finger-joints, is twenty-one.
