v2.c16.189
Viśva-karman and Maya, to whom many extant architectural treatises are ascribed, are common in the *Mānasāra*, the *Matsya-purāṇa*, and the *Bṛihat-saṁhitā*. The *Mānasāra* and the *Matsya-purāṇa* have, therefore, in common five authorities, namely, Bṛihaspati, Indra under the name Purandara in the *Purāṇa*, Viśālāksha alias Viśāla in the *Mānasāra*, Viśva-karman, and Maya. The *Mānasāra* and the *Bṛihat-saṁhitā* have in common Viśva-karman, Maya and Manu.
