Loka

Loka, our Universe, contains numerous solar systems, and its space is called lokākāśa. Lokākāśa is divided into three parts: The Upper World (Ūrdhva loka) – in which the heavens are situated and heavenly beings., The Middle World (Madhyaloka) in which all visible (and also the tiniest invisible) life forms are living, including ourselves during physical embodiments and the Lower World (Adho loka) where all beings of a lower nature, sinners who lived earlier in Madhya loka or physical incarnation, undergo suffering. The liberated beings or Siddhas live above the highest heaven in a ‘location’ at the very top of Loka (the Siddha-śila), that means even they are still within loka, even though they have no concern with the mundane world and can not return there. Loka is thought to be surrounded by aloka – ‘not-universe’, where no other components of nature apart from space and time (are known to) exist.
