FAQs
The Purāṇic geography uses idealized human conditions (long life, purity, freedom from decay) to contrast different cosmic regions and to suggest that environment and merit (puṇya) shape embodied experience.
Primarily within 'Sthāna' (cosmic arrangement/locations) and secondarily supports 'Manvantara' framing by depicting conditions across cosmic divisions, though no specific Manu is named here.
Freedom from 'jarā' and 'daurgandhya' symbolically points to a sattva-dominant realm where the gross signs of decay are minimized—an imaginal map of purity rather than a purely physical ethnography.
