Layers of Atmosphere between Sun and Earth All these entities exist in an ethereal form. So, it isquite possible that the three Lokas actually referto the Atmospheric layers ofThermosphere+Exosphere, Mesosphere andStratosphere+Troposphere Antariksh The sky is called Antariksh in Hindi/Sanskrit and is thelowes t of the higher Lokas .
