Sapta lokam
From the Bhakti List Archives
• May 16, 1997
Respected members of the prapatti group: Several years ago I bought a book called "Ikshvaku kula dhanam ennum Sriranga mahatmyam" in Srirangam. In that book, they describe the seven circles around the temple as referring to Bhulokam, Bhuvarlokam, suvarlokam, maharlokam, janolokam, tapolokam and satyalokam. I would like to know more about these seven lokams; in the Bhagavatam I was able to find the seven dvipas and also the seven narakas, but not these seven lokams (I have not checked the Vishnu Puranam yet). Could someone kindly tell me more about these seven lokams and what they mean? Thanking you, Vasudha Narayanan
