the earth. The island is double of Shalmali Dweep, some scriptures say that
Kush tree is 8,00,000 yojan high and similar is the circumference of its
shadow. Hence the name kush dweep. Some scriptures say that the island is
replete with kushtarin and surrounded by ghee. Beneath the island there are
such pounds and lake bathing in or drinking from, which makes one free from
hunger and thirst while the sick and the elderly restore health after bathing
in them. The island has seven divisions. Chitr Kut and Darvnagar Awak are among
its seven mountains while Mitrbandha, Sarab Bandha, Dev garbha and Dhrit jiva
awak are rivers. Kapil Muni has lived his life on the flank of these mountains.
Drinking from these rivers people get rid of sins and attain peace. Dwellers of the island worship lord Vishnu Bhagwan.
