Type	Location layer
Region	Unknown
Layer	Unknown
Coordinates	628 (alt. layer) ↔ gzb ↔ far
Subnet update	V4.5.1 (2017-06-10)

The dharma alcove is an alternate layer of the study in Submachine Universe.

Architecture

A lamp in the orange layer.

This layer of the study has only two rooms. The overall color scheme of this area is a dull orange color. The walls are made of bricks of this color.

• The big Wheel of Dharma.
• The machine that can switch between the two layers.

1/2

In the left room there is a replica of the machine seen in the study. It is sitting on a brick stand that was covered in concrete. Some of the concrete has chipped away.

There are also two lamps, in lantern-like stands in here, and a huge wooden Wheel of Dharma can be partially seen. A plaque on the wheel contains the numbers "245", cluing to the cake loop.

To the right of the layer-switch device is another similar brick stand, with a flat brass bowl like the one seen in the pyramid. Pouring karmic water into the bowl reveals a karma portal to far, with solid drippings of karma descending into the bowl. A column of unidentified symbols stands behind, and to the right a cliff ends in a sheer drop-off to the void.

Trivia

• The location coordinates "GZB" are leetspeak for 628 (the other layer of the study).
• This location originally shared the 628 coordinate with the current study, with a portal on the right screen instead of the karma portal stand. Teleporting to 628 would bring the player to either the "white" or "orange" version of 628, depending on which they last left from. In June 2017, this location was split off into its own location with the v4.5.1.0 update. The original coordinates given were 629, but they were switched to non-numeric coordinates after a bug was found by which the location could be accessed by inputting the numbers directly in the portal.

The final map of GZB when it was still classified under the coordinates 628.
