General definition (in Jainism)

Source: Wisdom Library: Jainism

Rohit (啶班啶灌た啶む) is the name of a river mentioned as flowing through Haimavanta together with the Rohit膩sy膩 river. Haimavanta is one of the seven regions (办峁迟谤补) of Jamb奴dv墨pa according to Jaina cosmology. Jamb奴dv墨pa sits at the centre of madhyaloka (鈥榤iddle world鈥�) is the most important of all continents and it is here where human beings reside.

Rohit (啶班啶灌た啶む) or Rohita is the name of a river that, coupled with the Rohit膩sy膩 river, separates the Haimavata region. Haimavata refers to one of the regions of 闯补尘产奴诲惫墨辫补: the first continent of the Madhya-loka (middle-word), according to the 2nd-century Tattv膩rthas奴tra 3.10. The Rohit river flows eastwards. The Rohit and Rohit膩sy膩 rivers have 28000 tributaries.

Jamb奴dv墨pa (where flows the Rohit river) is in the centre of all continents and oceans; all continents and oceans are concentric circles with Jamb奴dv墨pa in the centre. Like the navel is in the centre of the body, Jamb奴dv墨pa is in the centre of all continents and oceans. Sumeru Mount is in the centre of Jamb奴dv墨pa. It is also called Mount Sudar艣ana.
