देवानां क्रीडनस्थानं लोकालोकस्ततः परम् । पर्वतो वलयाकारो योजनायुतविस्तृतः
devānāṃ krīḍanasthānaṃ lokālokastataḥ param | parvato valayākāro yojanāyutavistṛtaḥ
Au-delà se trouve Lokāloka, tenu pour le lieu de jeu des devas ; une chaîne de montagnes en forme d’anneau, étendue sur dix mille yojanas.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context)
Tirtha: Lokāloka-parvata
Type: peak
Scene: A colossal circular mountain encircling the known world like a protective ring; inside is luminous realm, outside fades into deep darkness; devas appear in playful motion atop the ridge, suggesting a divine playground at the edge of light.
The universe is portrayed as ordered and bounded; divine realms are structured, not random, reinforcing reverence for cosmic law.
Lokāloka is a cosmological boundary rather than a pilgrim-site on earth; it functions as sacred geography in purāṇic cosmology.
None in this verse.
