वास्तु मण्डन (मण्डन सूत्रधार - गृह, राजप्रासाद, दुर्ग एवं नगर-वास्तु सटीक)

Ch. VI – Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 145 26. Catuḥśālā type of houses will have 256 varieties. The variety may increase up to 1000, and like the previous one, each of them may have eight varieties again. 27. According to Viśvakarmā the number of Śālā houses will be one Crore, fifteen lakh and forty eight thousand. 28. One, two, three, four Śālā houses can be constructed through the Prastāra principle. The principle of combination (of one to four Śālā houses) will apply for houses from the fifth to tenth. Śālā houses or the mutual combination of these Śālā houses will give rise to the fifth to tenth Śālā houses. Such as 29. By the addition of Catuḥśālā and Ekaśālā one form of Pañcaśālā house will be formed. Pañcaśālā type of houses will have six ways of formation. Other combina- tion⁴ will be of Triśālā and Dviśālā, two Ekaśālās and one Triśālā, two Dviśālās and one Ekaśālā, three Ekaśālās and one Dviśālā or five Ekaśālās. 30-31. Likewise there will be combinations for six Śālā houses and oth- ers. There will be nine ways of combinations for six Śālā houses and eleven ways for Saptaśālā. 32. Aṣṭaśālā houses will have 15 types of combination and Navaśālā houses will have 8 combinations. Twenty three varieties of com- bination are given for the application of Daśaśālā. 33. The name which is other than the birth name acquired by the birth star is kept for welfare. The auspicious and inauspicious characters should be determined by this method for the King's palace, house and village. 34. As the names of the moat, fort, city, village etc have been named differently by the wise men after consideration, similarly the names of the dwelling places will be named. 4. 1. 4 Śālā + 1 Ekaśālā 2. 3 Śālā+ 1 Dviśālā 3. 3 Śālā + 2 Ekaśālās 4. 2 Dviśālā + 1 Ekaśālā 5. 1 Dviśālā+ 3 Ekaśālā 6. 5 Ekaśālās

Ch. VI – Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 147 35. Those names which are against popular usages and the scrip- tures should be discarded. In place of 10, 11 (Rudra) and 12 ( Sūrya)⁵, which are Guru, the Laghu can be inserted therein. 36. It has been said by Svayaṁbhuva that in the place of one, two, three and four Śālā coming serially, the excess of the first form in a Prastāra should be given up. 37. Though according to the sayings of Viśvakarmā there are sixteen different types of divisions, three divisions of Prastāra are indi- cated by Viśvakarmā. 38. Previous forms should be discarded if there are extra Alindas in front of the house. The construction of the house starts from single form but from the second there may be 1000 forms. 39. For each of the three divisions there will be eight varieties. The front part of the eight varieties of Dhānya and others will be equal; again they will be joined with Laghu. 40. With the addition of Alindas, each will have eight varieties again. Now the varieties of Ekaśālā 41-42. Dhruva, Dhānya, Jaya, Nanda, Khara, Kānta, Manohara, Sumukha, Durmukha, Krūra, Supakṣa, Dhanada, Kṣaya, Ākranda, Vipula, Vijaya- give results true to the meaning of their names, so one should discard Khara, Durmukha, Krūra, Kṣaya, and Ākranda. Thus ends Dhruvā etc. If Dhānya and other varieties are endowed with Alindas in eight directions at intervals, then these will be termed as Ramya, Śrīdhara, Mudita, Vardhamānaka, Karāla, Sunābha, Dhvāṁkṣa and Samṛddhi. Thus ends Ramya etc.

5. Here Arka and Sūrya indicate number 12.

Ch. VI - Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 149 43-46. Placing a wooden structure known as Ṣaḍdāruka, in the Dhruva and other Ekaśālā houses, Sundara etc. sixteen varieties of houses can be formed. They are Sundara, Varada, Bhadra, Pramoda, Vimukha, Śiva, Sarvalābha, Viśāla, Vilakṣam, Aśubha, Dhvaja, Uddyota, Bhīṣaṇa, Śūnya, Ajita, and Kulanandana. Thus ends Sundara etc. 47-48. If eight Śālās with Alindas in front again have Ṣaḍdāruka structure, then another sixteen varieties will be formed. They are Haṁsa, Sulakṣaṇa, Saumya, Haya, Bhāvuka, Uttama, Rucira, Santata, Kṣema, Ākṣepa, Ucchrita, Vṛṣa, Ucchanna, Vyaya, Ānanda, Sunanda. Thus ends Haṁsa etc. 49-50. If Apavarka is added to the Dhruva type of Śālā, sixteen varieties will be formed. They are Alaṁkṛta, Alaṅkāra, Ramaṇa, Pūrva, Īśvara, Puṇya, Sagarbha, Kalaśa, Durgata, Rakta, Īpsita, Bhadraka, Vancita, ~Dīna, Vibhava as well as Kāmada. Thus ends Alaṅkṛta etc. If Ṣaḍdāruka construction is added to the Apavarka, then the fol- lowing similar varieties will come up. They are Prabhava, Bhāvita, Rukma, Tilaka, Krīḍana, Mukha, Yaśoda, Kumuda, Kāla, Bhāsura, Bhūṣaṇa, Vasundhara, Dhānyahara, Kupita, Cittavṛddhida, Kulodaya– 51-52. These are eternal according to their quality.

Ch. VI - Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 151 Thus ends Prabhava etc. 53-55. If the corridors are built in front and the apartments (apavarka) are made of two ṣaḍdārukas, then the following sixteen varieties will be formed. They are- Cūḍāmaṇi, Prabhadra, Kṣema, Śekhara, Ucchrita, Viśāla, Bhūtida, Hṛṣṭa, Virodha, Kālapāśa, Nirāmaya, Suśāla, Raudra, Megha, Manorama, Subhadra. With these the total of Ekaśālā houses will be hundred and four in number. Thus ends the Cūḍāmaṇi etc. 56. In different apartments, if the inner apartment is to be made of wooden planks (Phalaka), the right section of that house is re- garded as auspicious and the left part will be suited for women. 57. If the combination with Laghu starts from the ninth place of the house, then there will be fifteen apartments starting from the South-East corner (Agni) to others. These fifteen apartments are Īśvara, Vṛṣabha, Candra, Roga, Pāpa, Bhayaprada, Nandana, Khādaka, Dhvāṅkṣa, Vivṛta, Vilaya, Kṣaya, Yāmya, 58-59. Viparīta, Subhadra– these are according to the order of the lunar days. Thus ends Ekaśālās

Ch. VI – Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 153 Now the variety of Dviśālā 60-61. Serially they are Hastinī, Mahiṣī, Gāvī and Chāgalī. The pair of white swans etc. should have eight designations. They are two swans (Haṁsa), two drakes (Cakras) and two cranes (Sārasa) and two cuckoos (Kokilas). It is known that serially they are for Hastinī and others. 62. Equalizing four corners and keeping nine inner Pādas (Koṣṭha) within a three-fold set up, and a triangle (nine Pādas), one should think of a twin apartment, leaving the central chambers. 63. Constructed on the Southern and South East (Āgneya) corner of the plot, the Hastinī type of house will face the Northern side. The Mahiṣī type of house will be constructed on the Western as well as the South-East corner of the plot and it will face the East- ern side. 64. The Gāvī type of house will be built on the North and North- West corner and it will face the Southern direction. The Chāgalī type of the house will be constructed on the East and North-West corner and it will face the Western side. 65. Śrīdhara will have Alindas in the front part. Jayāvaha will have Alindas on the fore part of the South. Śrījaya should be placed at the place of circumambulation and Kāmada is to be placed on the main pairs. 66. Jayanta and Śobhana Śālās have Alindas on the front part of the South. Viśāla type of Śālā will have two Alindas at the place of cir- cumambulation.

Ch. VI - Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 155 67. Somasambhava type of Śālā will have a third Alinda in the front. Ac- cording to this order of the door, Hastinī will have eight pair of houses. 68-71. According to the difference in directions, they may be known serially by different names. They are Gaja, Bhīma, Para, Ākrama, Jayanta as well as Bhāsura, Vasiṣṭha, Samudra. These we get from the back part of Mahiṣī. Starting from the back of the Gāvī type, we get Sunābha Varttaka, Saumya, Candra, Teja, Dīpaka, Kulodyota and Sunetra and Pāśupata, Mahākāla, Sutejaḥ, Tejavardhana, Vāsava - all these are born out of the prowess of Rudra from the elements. These houses are to be shown as coming out of the back of Chāgalī. ⁷ Thus ends the variety of 32 types of pairs of houses. Now⁸ the characteristics of 52 types of Dviśālās are being de- scribed serially. Siddhārtha, Yamasūrya, Daṇḍa, Vāta, Culli and Kāca- they are the varieties of Dviśālā houses. 72-73.L They may be of multiple varieties resulting from the arrangement of aghuprastāra. 74 . Gradually the different number of ventilators of different or uni- form sizes are to be described, so the house could be built with ventilators, corridors on good roads. 75. As far as possible I shall briefly describe Dviśālā according to the position of the Prāggrīva⁹ etc deviating from customary obsarvance. 76. The alteration of these auspicious and inauspicious character depends on the rhythmical disposition and the designation of the arrangement of Guru. Accomplishment and non- accomplishment of the ventilators are known by their names. 7. Aparājitapṛcchā writes : Hastinī Haṁsasambhūtā Gāvī Sārasasambhavā Chāgalī Kokilodbhūtā Mahiṣī Cakrabākajā ch. v 8. Similar Ślokas A.P. ch-94 Pg- 239. 9.

Ch. VI – Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 157 For the welfare of the Kings, people of the four castes and of religious sects, Hastinī and Mahiṣī type of Dviśālā should be done in a build- ing. This is known as Siddhārtha which bestows wealth and pros- perity. 77-78. Yamasūrya causes death to the owner of the Go (Gāvī),Mahiṣī type of houses (Śālā). 79. Daṇḍa causes fear of punishment to the owner of Chāgalī and Gāvī type of Śālā. Vāta, if associated with Chāgalī and Mahiṣī, causes anxiety. 80. Cullī associated with Mahiṣī and Ajā is the cause of anxiety. The Kāca variety associated with female elephant (Kareṇu) and Gāvī causes loss of friendship. 81. Dviśālā type of Śālā should not be constructed with one ventila- tion or without any ventilation. Its shape will be like Cullī which will be adorned with three walls. 82. The earlier four types vary according to the arrangement of Laghu Prastāra. These are again sub-divided into 11 varieties and they come within the category of temple. 83. Others divide them into four types and each of them into two groups at the end. The variety begins from one ventilation ac- cording to their external and internal positions. 84-85. The first of that variety is known as Vasudhāra, then Siddhārtha, Kalyāṇaka, Śāśvata, Śiva, Kāmaprada, Śrīda, Śānta, Niṣkalaṅka, Nīvīsaṁjña, Pūraka-these eleven types of houses fall under the Siddhārtha group.

Ch. VI – Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 159 Saṁhāra, Yamasūrya, Kāla, Vaivasvata, Yama, Karāla, Vikarāla, Kabandha, Mṛtaka, Śava, Mahiṣa–these are said to be the divisions of Yamasūrya as well as the Mahiṣī type. Pracaṇḍa, Caṇḍa, Daṇḍākhya, Uddaṇḍa, Kāṇḍakoṭara, Vigraha, Nigraha, Dhūma, Nirdhūma, Danti, Dāruṇa - these are the eleven types of Daṇḍa and there is fear of punish- ment in these types of houses.86-88. Marut, Pavana, Vātākhya, Anila, Prabhañjana, Dhanākhya, Modavidhvaṁsi, Pralaya, Kalaha, Kali, Kaliśūla– these are the divi- sions of Vāta, which are causes of anxiety. 89-91. The four divisions of Culli are– Roga, Culli, Anala, and Bhasma, and the divisions of Kāca are Ucchala, Kāca, Kulaghna and Virodha. In this way 52 types of Dviśālās are mentioned here. 92. If there are Alindas towards the Eastern and Southern directions, it is called Vasudhāra and it bestows wealth. Siddhārtha, with Alindas to the East and West, is devoid of any trouble. Kalyāṇa is known to have Alindas towards the Southern and West- ern directions and Śāśvata has Alindas towards the East and North. 93. Śiva has Alindas towards the Southern and Northern directions and Kāmada has Alindas to the West as well as to the North. 94. Śrīpada with two Alindas in front and one to the West is auspi- cious for its owner. Śānta brings peace in the house with Alindas to the East, South and North. 95. Niṣkalaṅka brings prosperity, with Alindas towards the East, West, and North. Dhaneśa, with Alindas to the South, West and North brings in more wealth.

Ch. VI – Śālādi gṛhalakṣaṇam 161 96. Kuvera with two Alindas in front and another towards the North increases one’s property. Saṁhāra and other types are known by designation in accordance with place and direction. 97. Roga has Alindas to the East and South, Culli has Alindas to the South and West. Anala has Alindas to the West and North and Bhasma has Alindas to the East and North. 98. (A Dviśālā house named) Chala of Kāca variety has two ventilators on the North. If the ventilators are on the Eastern, Southern and Northern sides, it is known as Kāca, and if two ventilators are on the South, it is known as Kulaghna. 99. Virodha type of house is designated to have Alindas towards the Southern and Northern direction In this way, 52 types of Dviśālā houses are precisely described. Then again 100. The Dviśālā house is always pleasant if it faces towards the East and North. Siddhārtha as well as Lāṅgala bring happiness if they face East and North. It has been also said in the Matsyapurāṇa 101. Of the Siddhārtha variety of Dviśālā which are not appreciable, (they) are to be discarded by the learned persons. Thus ends the variety of Dviśālā Now¹⁰ Triśālās 102. Like Dhruva and others, Triśālā is always built on the Prastāra of four Gurus. In the seventeenth type of house, two Laghus will be made in four directions.
