Ruler in Krauñca-dvīpa

Lomaharshaṇa tells the munis of the dvīpas beyond Jambūdvīpa. Krauñca-dvīpa is twice as extensive as Kuśa-dvīpa. Its rulers are the seven sons of Dyutimān: Kuśaga, Mandaga, Ushṇa, Pīvara, Andhakāraka, Muni and Dundubhi. Its seven varsha mountains, frequented by devas and gandharvas, are Krauñca, Vāmana, Andhakāraka, Devavrata, Dhama, Puṇḍarīkavān and Dundubhi, each twice the measure of the one before.
