**6.8-6.13.** *Construction of a fire-altar with enlarged areas was usually carried out by fixing the distance between the two poles (yūpas) of ekādaśinī.* This distance is known as *prakrama*. The length of *prakrama* varies in the case of the enlarged fire-altar. There are various opinions on this point by ancient masters. This has been discussed under *Bśl.* 4.12-4.14.
