Below Rāhu by 10,000 yojanas are the planets known as Siddhaloka, Cāraṇaloka and Vidyādhara-loka.

Tāvam mātre means 10,000 yojanas.

|| 5.24.5 ||

tato 'dhastād yakṣa-rakṣaḥ-piśāca-preta-bhūta-gaṇānāṁ vihārājiram antarikṣaṁ yāvad vāyuḥ pravāti yāvan meghā upalabhyante.

Beneath Vidyādhara-loka, Cāraṇaloka and Siddhaloka, in the sky called antarikṣa, are the places of enjoyment for the Yakṣas, Rākṣasas, Piśācas, ghosts and so on. Antarikṣa extends as far as the wind blows and the clouds float in the sky.

|| 5.24.6 ||

tato 'dhastāc chata-yojanāntara iyaṁ pṛthivī yāvad dhaṁsa-bhāsa-śyena-suparṇādayaḥ patattri-pravarā utpatantīti.

Below the abodes of the Yakṣas and Rākṣasas by a distance of 100 yojanas is the planet earth, whose upper limits extend as high as swans, hawks, eagles and similar large birds can fly.

This verse describes upper limit of Bhūrloka above the earth plane. Swans and other birds are transformations of earth.

|| 5.24.7 ||

upavarṇitaṁ bhūmer yathā-sanniveśāvasthānam avaner apy adhastāt sapta bhū-vivarā ekaikaśo yojanāyutāntareṇāyāma-vistāreṇopakÿptā atalaṁ vitalaṁ sutalaṁ talātalaṁ mahātalaṁ rasātalaṁ pātālam iti.

I have already described the position and divisions of the earth. Beneath this earth are seven other planets, known as Atala, Vitala, Sutala, Talātala, Mahātala, Rasātala and Pātāla whose width and length are 10,000 yojanas, with an interval of 10,000 yojanas between each one.

 

Below the earth, in different parts, are the seven lower planets. Bhū-vivaraḥ means “in hollow cavities of the earth.” It refers to Atala and the other planets. Antaram means a space or limit according to Amara-koṣa. Thus from the earth, to a limit of 10,000 yojanas Atala extends. From Atala, Vitala extends another 10,000 yojanas. Their length and breath are also 10,000 yojanas. The heights of the places are as much as possible (within 10,000 yojanas).

|| 5.24.8 ||

eteṣu hi bila-svargeṣu svargād apy adhika-kāma-bhogaiśvaryānanda-bhūti-vibhūtibhiḥ susamṛddha-bhavanodyānākrīḍa-vihāreṣu daitya-dānava-kādraveyā nitya-pramuditānurakta-kalatrāpatya-bandhu-suhṛd-anucarā gṛha-pataya īśvarād apy apratihata-kāmā māyā-vinodā nivasanti.
