The idea of ‘loka’ in the Veda-s and the Puraṇa-s is often translated to English as ‘planet’. This translation gives an apparent impression that the different loka-s might refer to various planets or galaxies in this physical universe. However, such an understanding of the Sanskrit word loka is very far from its true sense. Loka ultimately refers to a level or degree of subjective awareness or consciousness. A person cannot reach a higher or lower loka just by taking a flight on a spacecraft to that loka. A loka only becomes accessible to a person when he has achieved the necessary qualification by evolving or degrading his consciousness. This video discusses why translating ‘loka’ as ‘planet’ is highly misleading.
