O King, the sun-god and the sun planet divide all the directions of the universe. It is only because of the presence of the sun that we can understand what the sky, the higher planets, this world and the lower planets are. It is also only because of the sun that we can understand which places are for material enjoyment, which are for liberation, which are hellish and subterranean.

Translation
The directions, sky, the heavens, and earth and other divisions, as well the places of enjoyment, liberaton and hell, such as Atala, are all differentiated by the sun.
Bhidā means “other divisions also.” Svargāpavargau means places of enjoyment and liberation. Rasaukāṁṣi means planets like Atala.
