The length between the two side-frames at their top level should be equal to 7 units. Specifically
in the case of wooden frame meant for the female Deities, there is no need to provide the side-
frames. For the proportionate measures of all such frames, the learned sthapati should leave out
the measures belonging to the fleshy parts of the intended image. Starting from one fourth of a
digit and increasing by one fourth successively up to 2 digits, the measurements prescribed for
these frames may be increased or decreased suitably according to the reasonable adjustments
to be made in view of the compactness of the whole frame. O, the twice-born Sages!, the whole
length of the brahma danda, from the top to the bottom, may be taken to be 32 digits.
