Olmo Lungring: the pureland according to the Bon religion. In the center is the Nine Stacked Swastika (Yungdrung) Mountain surrounded by four large pleasure gardens. Outside of that are regions of island systems becoming more numerous as they extend outward. Across the top are the Five Celestial Enlightened Ones.
