v1.c5.s7.2

⁸⁷ The Marmas are of special importance in the site-plan. Where the Vāstumaṇḍala is co-extensive with the Prāsāda they affect the position of pillars in temples as described in the 'Samarāṅgaṇasūtradhara', ch. XLIX. In brick and stone temples such as are preserved the Marmas affect the positions of windows, buttresses, etc. of the wall of the Prāsāda.
