24 Countries and its villages according to Naklanki Gita
Chatris (36) Mulk seems to be India and
Chovis (24) Mulk seems to be referring to China
All these places may also be inside the body. And it may also be a symbol of what is going on in the spiritual world. Many ginans talk of mountains and rivers inside our body. The (or A) whole universe is inside us.
I remember seeing in 1988 in Mumbai a set of 3 tapes of Mukhi Khoridas on the explanation of Naklanki Gita. I got a copy which could not be heard or used, at that time enhancing the sound was still in its infancy or reserved t professional studios. But someone may have a good audio.
I found the Granth very difficult to understand and translate and demanding knowledge beyond what I know.

The following summary of the granth is taken from an old Gujrati Book "SYYED IMAM
SHAH NA GRANTHO, BHAG PEHLO
Thanks, but it's a summary of contents of Naklanki Gita.
Here is the actual verse of Naklanki Gita which discusses these 24 countries and it's villages.
"Shri Satgur Bhirmaa ho vaachaa. Parathami maanhe kettlaak mulak chhe, ek-ek mulak maanhe kettlaa-kettlaa gaam chhe te bhed kantho ho Saami Sirjanhaarjan. Shri Naaraayann ho vaachaa, sunno ho Satguru.
Parathami maanhe chovis mulak chhe. Okhaa manddal des maanhe be karodd gaam chhe (1), Veraatt des maanhe aatth karodd gaam chhe (2), Rajni des maanhe bahunter laakh gaam huvaa chhe (3), Padmaakaar des maanhe ek laakh gaam huvaa chhe (4), Raangadd des maanhe pachvis laakh gaam huvaa chhe (5), Ghaaddule des maanhe nav karodd gaam huvaa chhe (6), Mahibhur des maanhe ek karodd gaam huvaa chhe (7), Saadh des maanhe ek karodd gaam huvaa chhe (8.), Kanaaj des maanhe tetris karodd gaam huvaa chhe (9), Maarvaadd des maanhe nav karodd gaam huvaa chhe (10), Soratth des maanhe pachvis hajaar gaam huvaa chhe (11), Majgadd des maanhe paanch hajaar gaam huvaa chhe (12), Kanoj des maanhe paanch hajaar gaam huvaa chhe (13), Maalvaa des maanhe baannu laakh gaam huvaa chhe (14), Narevaann Chinn des maanhe chh hajaar gaam huvaa chhe (15), Maahaa Chinn des maanhe sol hajaar gaam huvaa chhe (16), Dharmi Dhum Dadd des maanhe baar laakh gaam huvaa chhe (17), Khuraasaan des maanhe baar laakh gaam huvaa chhe (18.), Sav Savan maanhe baar laakh gaam huvaa chhe (19), Gajni maanhe baar laakh gaam huvaa chhe (20), Mathuraa maanhe ek karodd gaam huvaa chhe (21), Gujaraat des maanhe paanch karodd gaam huvaa chhe (22), Kaasmir maanhe baar laakh gaam huvaa chhe (23), ane Paattann maanhe baar laakh gaam huvaa chhe (24), evaa chovis mulak Pir Shams bodheaa chhe, chovis mulak maanhe biloter-so karodd bohoter laakh ne sol hajaar gaam chhe."
All these places may also be inside the body. And it may also be a symbol of what is going on in the spiritual world. Many ginans talk of mountains and rivers inside our body. The (or A) whole universe is inside us.
I am also inclined to think in this manner. We are created in the image of God and hence the universe is reflected in our body. However I am finding it difficult to relate the numbers with the human anatomy.
Perhaps we don't know enough about our human bodies understanding of which in ongoing.
An interesting article on Naklanki Gita explained by Shiraz Pradhan:
Cutting-Edge Science in Syad Imam Shah’s Naklanki Geeta — Are the answers to secrets that Hadron Collider will reveal already in the Ginan?
AN IN-DEPTH STUDY OF NAKLANKI GEETA
BY SHIRAZ PRADHAN
“All fifty years of conscious brooding have brought me no closer to answer the question, what are photons (light particles)? Of course every rascal thinks he knows the answer, but he is deluding himself.” — Albert Einstein, quoted in Raymond W. Lam Seasonal Affective Disorder and Beyond, 1998.
In the conclusion of my previous article, Concepts of Modern Cosmology and Astrophysics in Two Ismaili Ginans, Choghadia and Mul Gayatri, I had asked a question: What was before the BIG BANG?
The Hadron Collider research at CERN, Switzerland is promising to reveal the deepest secrets of our universe. Hot topics of science today are the search for Dark Matter, a Theory of Every Thing (TOE) which involves the reconciliation of the Quantum Theory with the Theory of Relativity, and the State of the Universe before the Big Bang. Is it possible that some of our ancient ginans have answers that Hadron Collider Research is trying to come up with?
The focus of our study is a Granth, Naklanki Geeta, composed by Syad Imam Shah around 1400 CE. Our study will reveal that this ancient Granth, composed when the Incas Civilization and the Temples at Ankor Wat had begun to crumble and Europe was shaking off the vertigo of Dark Ages and entering the Renaissance period, is one of the most scientifically advanced and compact ancient document, besides the Ikhwa-al safa (The Brethren of Purity, 900 CE.). It touches on all ideas of Hadron Collider Research presented above. But before we delve in to it, I present below a table that puts Naklanki Geta on a comparative timescale of Scientific Development in the West over last 1000 years (see Table 1) as well as provide a brief introduction to the ginan....... continue
As I said, it looks like India (Jampudwip) was called previously Chatris (36) Mulk and China was called Chowis (24) Mulk. I do not know the names of the individual states that composed these two countries the time when these ginans were written.
All these places may also be inside the body. And it may also be a symbol of what is going on in the spiritual world. Many ginans talk of mountains and rivers inside our body. The (or A) whole universe is inside us.

There are reference to the body as for example a city (Prem Patan Moto Ginan says "Prem Patan ek gam che." that it is a city ruled by 5 ministers (5 sens) in the Kingdom f the King and Queen, it has 9 beautiful gates etc..
These below are not authoritative answers, only some possibilities:
----------
I think Daag is the burial or disposal of a dead body.
Jall is disposal in water,
Agan in fire and
bhom in burial in earth.
I am not sure about Van, maybe leaving the body to be eaten by wild beasts?
----------------
I think Khun refers to the 4 composition of the body, earth, water, fire, air - char khanr or char khun or it may refer to the 4 stage of evolution - mineral, vegetal, animal and human

Thanks for the explanation, Van means forest so your interpretation makes sense.
I have not heard the first three but the fourth used to be our salutation for centuries, today the Imam Shahis and the Athias still greet each other with "Haijanda", "Kayam Dev Paya."
Actually just last month one of the Imam Shahis sent me a whatsup text saying "Gor ni gat jamat ne sahejanda kejo"
What are the beliefs of Imam Shahis? Do they believe in the Imamat of MHI?
No they believe Syed Imamshah is the Imam however they only separated recently during the time of Imam Nizar II due to lack of communication with our Imams. They do recite all our Ginans and part of our Old Dua. Theit Ghat Pat ji kriya is similar and they give sukrit also, recite gat pat ja ginans. Thie "mandir" is usually called "Naklanki Narayanr" mandir or Satpanth Mandir.
The subject has been discussed elesewhere in this Forum. Lets keep this thread on Naklanki Gita.
Here is what I found painted on a wall of the residence of one of the Maharaj of the Satpanth Piranapanthis a couple of weeks ago in Gujrat. It has those info from their perspective which is in many case similar to ours and you can see on line 21 on the various burials. (last one is Bhom Dag)

Any idea abou 4 Saaina?
1) Sanomaan
2) Narodev
3) Saddaji
4) He Zinda Qayam Payaa
From what I have read, 4 khaan are ways through which souls were entered in the bodies.
Satej/tej khan....growth by fission like amoeba, bacteria OR according to some interpretation growth in moisture
Zarej/Jarej Khan....Growth from seeds e.g trees, plants etc OR according to another interpretation jellyish things growing with plants under ocean
Andaj Khan: birth from egg e.g. birds and fish
Udboj Khan: growth in womb e.g mammals
4 saina probably refers to the the words one has to utter when entering the place of worship...so in Kaljug it is Hai Zinda/ Qayam Paya
