Vastushastra (architecture)

: archive.org: Bharatiya vastu-sastra

Practical Experience.鈥擜n architect, howsoever well-versed in the traditional science, if he is not a master builder, unskilled in the work, must become nervous in actual operations. Like a timid man on the battle-field he must faint at the time of action. Conversely, an architect skilled in action but ignorant of the 艢膩stra is also not a happy type. He is like a helpless blind fellow to be helped by others in his movements (walking and building). [...] What is the Karma? The text gives the first priority to site-planning, then come the measurements, proportions in all respects鈥�尘腻苍补, un尘腻苍补, etc. After this follows the soil-examination with practical prescribed tests to ascertain whether a site is fit for an architectural undertaking. All this is related to the ground-plan. [...] Besides this practical experience, the mastery of another eight-fold skill beginning with 腻濒别办丑测补 (painting), 濒别辫测补箩腻迟补 (clay-moulding etc.), D膩rukarma (timber-work), Gaya, the masonry and the art of sculpture and metallurgy are also enjoined by the text [i.e., the Samar膩峁単a峁嘺s奴tradh膩ra].
