The six continents. According to [kālacakra] tantra these are:\n1. {zla ba'i gling /} moon continent\n2. {'od dkar gyi gling /} white light continent\n3. {ku sha'i gling /} kusha grass continent\n4. {mi'am ci'i gling /} probable human continent\n5. {khrung khrung gi gling /} crane continent\n6. {drag po'i gling /} agitated continent. These are also called the six\ndomains of riches because although the mountains, oceans and continents within the cool ranges do not get light from the sun and the moon, human beings survive by rays of light emanated from their bodies and enjoy as much wealth as the gods do.
