>>7811742>Paramahaṁsa: 93,000,000? It says in the Bhāgavatam exactly what the distance?Prabhupāda: The whole universe, diameter, is pañcaśat-koṭi-yojana. One yojana equal to eight miles, and one koti is ten miles, er, ten million. So pañcaśata, fifty into 10,000,000 into eight.
Paramahaṁsa: Yeah. So it's fifty crores yojana. Fifty crores yojanas?
Prabhupāda: Yes, fifty crore yojanas, pañcaśat. So one yojana equal to eight miles, one crore equal to ten million.
Paramahaṁsa: That's eighty million.
Prabhupāda: Hmm?
Paramahaṁsa: Eighty million times fifty.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Paramahaṁsa: Means 400,000,000
Śrutakīrti: Hmm. More than that. Four billion.
Paramahaṁsa: Four thousand million, which is four billion?
Śrutakīrti: Four billion miles.
Paramahaṁsa: Four billion miles is the diameter.
Prabhupāda: Is the diameter.
Paramahaṁsa: You gave that in The Teachings of Lord Caitanya also.
Prabhupāda: Yes. And the sun is in the middle.
Paramahaṁsa: So two billion miles from the edge of the universe.
Prabhupāda: Yes. And they say? 93,000,000.
Śrutakīrti: That's from the earth to the sun. That's not from the sun to the edge. That's from earth to the sun.
