ŚULVA-SŪTRAS—Refers to very important architectural matters :— The rules for the size of the various Vedis, the shape and the variations of the Agni, etc., are given in the Brāhmaṇas long before they are embodied in the Kalpa-sūtras of which the Śulva-Sūtras are but portions. But the explanations of the manner in which the manifold measurements and transformation had to be managed are not clear in the Brāhmaṇas.
