Description of the chapter [辫谤补迟颈峁ａ弓丑腻辫补峁璦濒补]: Next day, after 鈥�惫腻蝉迟耻测腻驳补鈥�, the icon is fixed in its place. As preparatory to this 鈥渇ixing鈥� ceremony, 苍腻苍诲墨辫奴箩腻 is done by feasting and giving new clothes to twelve Vai峁ａ箛ava Brahmins (l-3a). Then the whole temple to be cleansed, 办补濒补艣补-pots are to be prepared and set aside, a pit is to be filled with gems, etc., under the 辫墨峁环补-pedestal, the karmabera-icon is washed with the waters from the 8 pots, and the main icon is fixed in its place (3b-53). The prayer at this time requests God鈥檚 continued presence in the icon for protection and other boons (54-56). With the 辫补帽肠辞辫补苍颈峁诲尘补苍迟谤补 the icon is infused with life [蝉补箩墨惫补] (57a). Then 补产丑颈峁办补-rites are done to the Lord, whereupon the 尘补苍迟谤补苍测腻蝉补 part of the icon-consecration is done (60), and the 膧c膩yra prostrates himself and gives the Lord a first 辫奴箩腻-worship with 尘耻诲谤腻-gestures, etc. (57b-65).
Then, the 诲惫腻谤补辫腻濒补办补蝉 and 辫补谤颈惫腻谤补诲别惫补迟腻蝉 having been 鈥渇ixed鈥� [蝉补峁僺迟丑腻辫测补], the other icons and deities throughout the temple are to be invited to take up their abodes. After this vi峁aksena辫奴箩腻 is done (66-67), whereupon the 办补谤尘腻谤肠腻-icon is effectively consecrated as is the bali辫墨峁环补 (68- 73). When all is done, the 膧c膩rya-director is honored, as are the others who participated in the rites (74).
The remainder of the chapter deals with how to prepare the 补峁ａ弓补产补苍诲丑补苍补-cement (75-76), how various 艣腻苍迟颈丑辞尘补蝉 are to be done (79-81), which mantras are to be recited prior to food-offerings after 辫谤补迟颈峁ａ弓丑腻 (82 ff.), etc. The phala-benefits are listed, and the chapter closes with some related, miscellaneous remarks (88-97a).
