Māhendra
माहेन्द्र
Kalpa heaven 4, where the longest life runs to a little over 7 sāgaropama.
The 4th of the twelve kalpa heavens. Its gods live at most a little over 7 sāgaropama, it holds 8,00,000 vimānas, and its Indra is Māhendra.
Union here is by touch alone; the bodies do not join. 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.
