On the Three Lokas of the Lungs


 The three lokas of bhur, bhuvar and svar in all probability denote the three portions of the lung:

  1. Bhu loka: the acinus, the productive portion of the lung

  2. Bhuvar loka: the bronchiolar region, the region of the birds

  3. Svar loka: the central axial, the bronchial region.
