*vlm.1 RÁMA said:-Please, tell me sir, how this globe of the earth is situated, how and where the polar mountain stands upon it, and do the stars revolve about the same. 
*sv.1 RÂMA asked: Lord, pray tell me: how does this earth exist, how does the stellar sphere revolve and how do the Lokaloka mountains exist.

*sv.2 VASISTHA replied: Just as a little child imagines a plaything in the empty space and thinks it is there, the notion of the existence of this earth arises in the infinite consciousness.

*vlm.2. Vasishtha replied:-As boys build their fancied castles in empty air, so is this world the creation of the imagination of the mind of Brahma, and no more than this.

as for those having faulty eyes

the sky has hairline-streaks and double moons,

for Conscious.Space, from the first creation,

the earthly Elements are present

.

*sv.3 He whose vision is defective sees little balls of 'hair' in space, where no such balls exist. Even so, such notions as 'the existence of the earth' arose in the infinite consciousness at the moment which has come to be known as creation.
*vlm.3. As the dimsighted man sees the shadow of the moon, and other false sights before his eyes, so the creative Power-Brahmá sees in the beginning, the phantoms of the phenomenal world in the vacuity of its Intellecth (like a shadow of the prototype in the Divine mind). 
#timirika – something dark - According to http://saavinudhadugal.blogspot.com/2011/03/india-largely-country-of-immigrants.html, timirika is used to refer to Tamils. 
*yathA timirika.akSANAm – as for those who're dim of sight - keza-candra-Adi-darzanam – *there is perception of hair-moon-&c - cid-AkAzasya – *of Conscious.Space - sarg*A*dau – *in the beginning of Creation - *tathApRthvy.Adi-darzanam – *thus *likewise *is there perception of Earth-&c – *the elements.

*sv.4 A city which exists in the mind of the day-dreamer needs no support (with the imagination as its sole support); even so, this world is supported only by the experiencing of the infinite consciousness.

*vlm.4. As an imaginary city is situated in the mind, and is invisible to the eye; so the notion of the world is posited in the intellect, and not exhibited in actuality.

*sv.5 Whatever appears in the consciousness and however it appears to be and for whatever duration, it seems to exist in that consciousness in that manner for that duration, on account of the inherent power in consciousness. 
*vlm.5. Whenever there is the reflexion of anything whatever in the mind, and 
arising spontaneously of its own nature (from previous reminiscence); the same presents itself even then and in that state before the sight, (as in a dream).

*sv.6 Therefore, just as in the eyes of one with eye-defect the 'ball of hair' does float in space, this earth, etc., does exist in consciousness.
*vlm.6. As the dimsighted eye, sees false sights in the sky; so the deluded mind, sees the earth and the orbs of heaven (i.e. the heavenly bodies).

*vlm.7. As the current water flows on the surface of rivers, and there resides the latent fire underneath; so the notions of things presenting themselves as dreams of the mind, are manifested as real ones before the sight. 
*sv. If consciousness had 'seen' water flowing up and fire burning down in the very beginning, such would have been the nature of these elements even now. But it is because that consciousness 'saw' the earth as falling in space that it seems to fall even now and consciousness correspondingly seems to 'rise' in relation to the earth. Thus duality or diverse motion arises.

*vlm.8 Hence as thoughts and notions of things, occur and subside continually in the mind; so the earth and heavenly bodies, appear incessantly to revolve in their spheres; (and the stars to rise and set in endless succession). 
*sv. If consciousness had 'seen' water flowing up and fire burning down in the very beginning, such would have been the nature of these elements even now. But it is because that consciousness 'saw' the earth as falling in space that it seems to fall even now and consciousness correspondingly seems to 'rise' in relation to the earth. Thus duality or diverse motion arises.
तस्मात्_पतन्ती भूर्-भाता - Falling from that the world-illumination,

पतति_एव_अ.निशम् / आ.निशम् जगत् - the world falls constantly / until night

उत्पतन्ती तु चिद्.भाता - but when the consciousness-illumination arises

तथा नाना-आत्मिका भवेत् - thus it becomes variously-souled.

*vlm.9. The world is entirely inexistent, to dull and inanimate beings; it is visible to those that have the visual organs but utterly invisible to the blind, and altogether unknown to them that are born as such. It is imperceptible to the insensible, and perceptible only in the same manner as it is presented in the mind. So it is in the power of the mind alone, to represent it in some form or other to one's self.

*vlm.12. The polar circle is called the polar mountain, from the protuberance of the poles at both ends; it is termed also the Lokáloka or having a light and another darkside, owing to the course of the sun towards or away from it. Its distance from the starry circle, derives it also of Zodiacal light. 
*sv.12..17 The Lokaloka mountains are the boundary of the earth-plane. Beyond that is the great spatial pit filled with total darkness, tho something exists in it here and there. Because the stellar sphere is at a considerable distance, there seems to be some light somewhere and some darkness elsewhere. These stars are at a very great distance from the Lokaloka mountains. The entire stellar sphere, with the exception of the pole star, constantly revolves around its own axis. But all this is non-different from the notion that arises in pure consciousness. Beyond the worlds or the earth-plane whose boundaries are the Lokaloka mountains, the stellar sphere appears something like the skin of a fruit.

*sv.4 A city which exists in the mind of the day.dreamer needs no support (with the imagination as its sole support); even so, this world is supported only by the experiencing of the infinite consciousness.

*vlm.7. As the current water flows on the surface of rivers, and there resides the latent fire underneath; so the notions of things presenting themselves as dreams of the mind, are manifested as real ones before the sight. 
*sv. If consciousness had 'seen' water flowing up and fire burning down in the very beginning, such would have been the nature of these elements even now. But it is because that consciousness 'saw' the earth as falling in space that it seems to fall even now and consciousness correspondingly seems to 'rise' in relation to the earth. Thus duality or diverse motion arises.

*vlm.8 Hence as thoughts and notions of things, occur and subside continually in the mind; so the earth and heavenly bodies, appear incessantly to revolve in their spheres; (and the stars to rise and set in endless succession). 
*sv. If consciousness had 'seen' water flowing up and fire burning down in the very beginning, such would have been the nature of these elements even now. But it is because that consciousness 'saw' the earth as falling in space that it seems to fall even now and consciousness correspondingly seems to 'rise' in relation to the earth.

*vlm.9. The world is entirely inexistent, to dull and inanimate beings; it is visible to those that have the visual organs but utterly invisible to the blind, and altogether unknown to them that are born as such. It is imperceptible to the insensible, and perceptible only in the same manner as it is presented in the mind. So it is in the power of the mind alone, to represent it in some form or other to one's self.

*vlm.12. The polar circle is called the polar mountain, from the protuberance of the poles at both ends; it is termed also the Lokáloka or having a light and another darkside, owing to the course of the sun towards or away from it. Its distance from the starry circle, derives it also of Zodiacal light. 

*sv.12..17 The Lokaloka mountains are the boundary of the earth.plane. Beyond that is the great spatial pit filled with total darkness, tho something exists in it here and there. Because the stellar sphere is at a considerable distance, there seems to be some light somewhere and some darkness elsewhere. These stars are at a very great distance from the Lokaloka mountains. The entire stellar sphere, with the exception of the pole star, constantly revolves around its own axis. But all this is non.different from the notion that arises in pure consciousness. Beyond the worlds or the earth.plane whose boundaries are the Lokaloka mountains, the stellar sphere appears something like the skin of a fruit.

*vlm.16. The sphere of zodiacal stars, is twice as distant from the poles, as those are distant from the middle of the earth; in the same manner as the covering crust of a ripe walnut is aloof from the sheath of its seeds.
