Is there more than one type of space created by God?

[Smt. Anita Renkuntla asked: Pādanamaskāraṃ Swāmiji! I was reading the Datta Guru Bhagavad Gītā written by You. In that book, in Chapter 13, sloka 20, it is written that each different world (lokam) is based on different types of ākāśam (space). Here I am confused, as to whether there are different types of space created by God.]

Swāmi replied: The space of each world differs from the space of other world so that both the worlds co-exist mutually in different planes. It is just like an awakened person dreaming some created space in his mind while he exists in this space of this external world. Both the spaces co-exist in different planes without mutual contradiction. The world of departed souls, who neither did good deeds nor did bad deeds exists on the space just above the moon. At the same time, the rocket sent by us to the moon lands on moon without any interference. This is an example of the unimaginable power (Māyā) of God.
