: Shodhganga: Elements of Art and Architecture in the Trtiyakhanda of the Visnudharmottarapurana (vastu)Curved lines (and Dots) represents an undesirable characteristic of those Stone that are to be used as a Material for the Construction of Temples, according to the Vi峁ａ箛udharmottarapur膩峁嘺, an ancient Sanskrit text which (being encyclopedic in nature) deals with a variety of cultural topics such as arts, architecture, music, grammar and astronomy.鈥擣inding of proper types of materials is one of the important aspects for any construction. Indian scriptures state that to procure the stones, the astrologer and the architect should go to mountain and examine the stones. The Vi峁ａ箛udharmottarapur膩峁嘺 specifies that some stones which are [e.g., filled with dots and curved lines, etc.] are to be totally abandoned. [...] So, it can be said that in the Vi峁ａ箛udharmottarapur膩峁嘺, the collection of materials for the construction of temple does not suggest any process that harms others.
Vastushastra (啶掂ぞ啶膏啶む啶多ぞ啶膏啶む啶�, v膩stu艣膩stra) refers to the ancient Indian science (shastra) of architecture (vastu), dealing with topics such architecture, sculpture, town-building, fort building and various other constructions.
