QAF RANGE OF MOUNTAINS
Symbolic of aspiration or uplifting from the desire-nature.
"The earth, which is flat, is surrounded as by an eightfold ring, by the eight mountain chains of Qaf; these alternate with the Seven Seas, the innermost Qaf being within the innermost of the Round the outermost Qaf, which is outside of all, is wound a great snake." - GIBB, Hist. of Ottomon Poetry, Vol. I. p. 38.
This means that within the lower nature (the earth) are the seven sub-planes of the astral plane (the seven seas), and the mountain chains " represent the mentality which raises the desire-nature (the snake). The "eight-fold range of Qaf" may stand for the dual aspects of the lower quaternary.
