नारद उवाच । भूमेर्योजनलक्षे च कौरव्य रविमंडलम् । योजनानां सहस्राणि भास्करस्य रथो नव
nārada uvāca | bhūmeryojanalakṣe ca kauravya ravimaṃḍalam | yojanānāṃ sahasrāṇi bhāskarasya ratho nava
Sinabi ni Nārada: O inapo ng Kuru, ang bilog ng Araw ay nasa layong isang lakh na yojana mula sa lupa. Ang karwahe ng Araw ay may sukat na siyam na libong yojana.
Nārada
Tirtha: Ravimaṇḍala (Sūrya-loka as cosmographic locus)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Kauravya
Scene: Nārada instructs a Kuru prince/sage; above them a vast diagrammatic sky with the Sun’s orb at a stated distance, and a grand solar chariot spanning thousands of yojanas.
The Purāṇa frames the cosmos as a sacred, ordered structure, inviting contemplative reverence for divine governance.
No tīrtha is mentioned; this is cosmographical teaching rather than a site-māhātmya.
None; the verse provides cosmological measurements.
