v1.c11.s2.76
A special feature which differentiates this work from many other Śilpa treatises in the Sanskrit language is the fact that the Paurānika, priestly, and astrological details have been reduced to the absolute minimun. Thus excepting the first two chapters and the last three chapters the all other chapters namely 3 to 84 deal with the theory and practice of Engineer-Planning as such. There are almost no priestly or astrological interpolations as are usually found in other Śilpa Treatises".
