Yamaraj lit. ‘master of regulation’; the god of justice who maintains order within the material world. He is revered as one of the twelve mahajans and a devotee of the Supreme Lord. He judges souls after death on the basis of the record of their actions kept by his assistant Chitragupta, and administers punishments or rewards as are appropriate in the form of the soul’s future body, destination, and fortune. He presides over Patalaloka, the lower region of the universe, and is also known as Kala (Time), Dharma or Dharmaraj (Order), and Mrtyu (Death).

Naimisa (Naimisaranya) a forested area in central India where, at the beginning of Kali-yuga, thousands of sages gathered to hold a grand sacrifice that would counteract the degradation of the coming age. There, they heard Srimad Bhagavatam and the other Puranas from Sri Suta Goswami. Naimisa is said to be situated at the very centre of the universe.
