Situated 8,800,000 miles above Saturn, or 20,800,000 miles above earth, are the seven saintly sages, who are always thinking of the well-being of the inhabitants of the universe. They circumambulate the supreme abode of Lord Viṣṇu, known as Dhruvaloka, the polestar.
Śrīla Madhvācārya quotes the following verse from the Brahmāṇḍa Purāṇa:
- jñānānandātmano viṣṇuḥ
- śiśumāra-vapuṣy atha
- ūrdhva-lokeṣu sa vyāpta
- ādityādyās tad-āśritā
