The Sarvatobhadra of ch. LVI, belongs to the series of temples beginning with Kesari; it stands on a Jagaṭī-pīṭha which is half the width of the temple high; the width of the Jagaṭī is twice that of the Prāsāda. The wall of this imposing structure is similarly proportioned to that of other Sarvatobhadra temples. The Jaṅghā is assigned 5 parts (as also in LV) and, above it, the Mekhalā ½ and the Antarapatra ½ part. This temple has 8 storeys (bhūmi). It can be built in 3 sizes of which the least has a width of 15 Hastas, the middle c. 27 and the largest 37 Hastas.
