v2.c13.s1.44

While the number of Bhūmis is left to the discretion of the builder of the temple Bahubhūmika, it is given explicitly in the temples described subsequently. They are 12 in number and their storeys are from 12 to one respectively, Meru having 12 storeys, 6 sides (asra) and 4 doors. Its description agrees with that in the lists of the Twenty Temples. It might, however, be thought of as crowned by a Valabhī.
