Ānata
Kalpa heaven 9, where the longest life runs to 19 sāgaropama.
The 9th of the twelve kalpa heavens. Its gods live at most 19 sāgaropama, it holds 400 with Prāṇata vimānas, and its Indra is Prāṇata.
Nothing is seen or heard. A thought is enough, and it is the last stage before desire stops entirely. The scheme is called pravīcāra, and it is the real measure of these tiers: as you rise, the mode of satisfaction grows thinner, until above Acyuta it stops altogether and the The nine Graiveyaka gods have none at all.
This kalpa and the one above it share a single Indra and a single tally of vimānas. That is why the twelve kalpas have ten Indras between them, and why the Śvetāmbara count of sixty-four Indras in the universe gives only ten to the whole of Ūrdhva Loka.
