: Shodhganga: Temple management in the ĀgamasվԲٳ貹Բ (विमानस्थाप�) refers to a certain ceremony performed by Ādiśaiva priests (Ācāryas), as defined in the Śaivāgamas.—The Ācāryas were honoured with 岹ṣiṇ� on the occasion of [various] ritual ceremonies. Besides that, they received a share of the naivedya and Ծⲹ each day. [...] After վԲٳ貹Բ and Maṇḍapasthāpana, the Āgama recommends that the Guru along with the Mūrtipa be honoured with new clothes and appropriate 岹ṣiṇ� starting from 10 Ծṣk in the case of Բٳ貹Բ. In the chapter on Parivāralakṣaṇa, the āgama specifies 岹ṣiṇ� between one and ten Ծṣk for all ritual officiants starting from the Guru.

The Pūrvabhāga consists of 75 chapters (貹ṭa) [...] Chapter 68 outlines the steps involved in the installation of divine images. Chapters 69 and 70 describe consecration rites to be performed for temples and pavillions after they have been built (e.g., Բٳ貹Բ).

Shaiva (शै�, śaiva) or Shaivism (śaivism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshiping Shiva as the supreme being. Closely related to Shaktism, Shaiva literature includes a range of scriptures, including Tantras, while the root of this tradition may be traced back to the ancient Vedas.
