Source: Wisdom Library: Elements of Hindu Iconograpy艢补谤墨谤补辫腻濒补办腻 (啶多ぐ啷�啶班お啶距げ啶曕ぞ).鈥擝esides the 辫补谤颈惫腻谤补-诲别惫补迟腻蝉 mentioned above, the temple of Subrahma峁噛a is required to have eight 艣补谤墨谤补-辫腻濒补办腻蝉 or body-guards. They are named
- 峁峁噈耻办丑补,
- 艢补办迟颈辫腻峁噄,
- 碍腻谤迟迟颈办别测补,
- Guha,
- Skanda,
- 惭补测奴谤补惫腻丑补苍补,
- Sen膩ni, and
- 艢补办迟颈丑补蝉迟补惫腻苍.
They are also, like the 辫补谤颈惫腻谤补-诲别惫补迟腻蝉, required to be represented with four or two arms; if they have four arms, two hands out of the four should be held on the chest in the 补帽箩补濒颈 pose and the remaining two are to keep in them the vajra and the padma. The 艣补谤墨谤补-辫腻濒补办腻蝉 may have one or six faces and must be located on the eight cardinal points beginning from the east as in the case of the 辫补谤颈惫腻谤补-诲别惫补迟腻蝉, but perhaps in a second 腻惫补谤补峁嘺. If they cannot be represented regularly by sculptured figures, at least 辫墨峁环补蝉 representing them nust be set up with a peacock or an elephant kept in front of them.
Shilpashastra (啶多た啶侧啶ざ啶距じ啷嵿い啷嵿ぐ, 艣ilpa艣膩stra) represents the ancient Indian science (shastra) of creative arts (shilpa) such as sculpture, iconography and painting. Closely related to Vastushastra (architecture), they often share the same literature.
