Sakwala +

This is a'' bana ''or “word” uttered by Gautama Buddha in his oral instructions. Sakwala is a mundane, or rather a solar system, of which there is an infinite number in the universe, and which denotes that space to which the light of every sun extends. Each Sakwala contains earths, hells and heavens (meaning good and bad spheres, our earth being considered as hell, in Occultism); attains its prime, then falls into decay and is finally destroyed at regularly recurring periods, in virtue of one immutable law. Upon the earth, the Master taught that there have been already four great “continents” (the Land of the Gods, Lemuria, Atlantis, and the present “continent” divided into five parts of the ''Secret'' ''Doctrine''), and that three more have to appear. The former did ''not '' ''communicate ''with each other ”, a sentence showing that Buddha was not speaking of the actual continents known in his day (for ''Pâtâla'' or America was perfectly familiar to the ancient Hindus), but of the four geological formations of the earth, with their four distinct ''root''‐races which had already disappeared.
