## Myths and Legends

In Hindu cosmology, pralaya specifies three different periods of time. The word Mahapralaya means Great Dissolution. During each prayala, the ten lower realms are destroyed while the four upper realms remain intact. However, when a Mahapralaya happens, all 14 realms are destroyed, regardless of their positions.

In Paradise Lost by John Milton, the Lake of Fire is the sea of chaos instead of a pre-version of Hell, which means Pralaya’s non-existent manner is used to create Hell. The poem also stated that both Khaos and The Darkness ruled alongside Pralaya with Pralaya being the seas, Khaos being the wind, and The Darkness being the night.
