The variations in the plan are accompanied by variations of the vertical proportions. These are given most completely in LVII; the width of the Kṣetra being 10, the socle, Pīṭha, has 2½ parts; the lower part of the wall, Vedibandha, has 2¼ parts of which the mouldings, etc., are allotted: Kumbhaka 1, Masūraka ½, Antarapatra ¼ and Mekhalā ½ part; the Jaṅghā here is assigned only 4 parts, the Śikhara 7, Grīvā ½, Āmalaka (Aṇḍaka) 1, Padmaśīrṣa (Candrikā) ½, and Kalaśa (or Kumbha with Uṣṇīṣa) 1½. The total height is more than double the width of this Sarvatobhadra temple. It has Candrāvalokanas in its Bhadras. This temple belongs to a list beginning with Meru; also the Sarvatobhadra of ch. LV, whose proportions are not completely given; but for the Jaṅghā which is assigned 5 parts, they are nearly the same, Mekhalā-Antarapatra having each ½ part.
