The same themes, but varied in their proportionate application, link the Maṇḍapa, built in one or the other of the 8 or 27 possible varieties, to the Prāsāda. The entrance to the Maṇḍapa may be equal in width to that of the Prāsāda, but exceeds its height by ¼, ⅓ or ½ (S.S. LXVI. 20) or it should be 1½, 1⅔, 1¾ or twice the door of the Prāsāda (S.S. LXVII. 97-98).
