Average height is about 10m (31ft) !
Lifespan of people: 100,000 years !
For rishis, life existed "as long as there was marrow in the bones."

Winter, summer and monsoon were unknown.

All needs (food, shelter...) are provided by wishing-trees [kalpavriksha].
People had the mental power to summon up [oproepen] whatever object they desired.
There were no shortages.

There were no prescribed places where people lived, no cities or villages.
People lived freely on the shores of the oceans and in the mountains.

Houses or cities were not needed, as one could wish for an (even flying) mansion.
And it would instantly appear.

This era was devoid of agricultural activities. Or rather any other type of activity.
Just by mere contemplation, one would beget desired results.

The Earth was covered with beautiful gardens, and provided comfortable resting places.
Brahmins, sages and ascetics, according to their nature, were being absorbed in penance.
Their ashrams being devoid of all wickedness.

Roots, fruits or flowers did not grow.
People lived on juice that came out of the bowels of the earth.
This juice was so miraculous that old age and disease were unknown.

The birth of people was through spiritually sanctioned methods.
So everyone was born with a highly developed consciousness.
Which spread throughout society.

The time of death/transcendance was chosen by will.
