Vastushastra (architecture)

: Shodhganga: Elements of Art and Architecture in the Trtiyakhanda of the Visnudharmottarapurana (vastu)

The Environment was protected by eco-friendly suggestions for the purpose of gathering 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. [...] The woods of the trees which are hollow from inside, which bear creepers, which are eaten by worms, slightly burnt by fire, ruined by wind are totally discarded for making temples. Moreover, the trees which are used as the abode of birds, animals, ascetics etc. should be totally abandoned in this purpose. The trees growing in a 艣尘补艣腻苍补, temple, ant hill, road or which is the only tree of a garden should not be cut for making temples and they should be left with care. The eco-friendly suggestions of Vi峁ａ箛udharmottarapur膩峁嘺 are seen to protect the greenery and to balance a pollution free environment.
