कामिक आगम: पूर्व भाग (अष्टाविंशति मूल शैव आगमों का प्रथम एवं सर्वोच्च आगम महाकोश)

The length of the pavilion should be in proportion to the length ascertained for the main shrine.
The wall may be built in the desired sides of the hall. It should be associated with multiple
latticed windows and many entrances. For such halls, the specific activity known as ‘the laying
of the first brick’(adyeshtaka) should be performed separately. Its measurements should be
corrected so as to bring out the auspiciousness of aya and other factors.

If the width is multiplied by 8, 9, 3 and 8 and divided by 12, 10, 8 and 27 respectively, the
remainder denotes aya(dhana), vyaya(runa), yoni and nakshatra respectively. If the perimeter
is multiplied by 9 and divided by 30 and 7 , the remainder denotes tithi and vara respectively.
The auspiciousness or inauspiciousnes of these factors of the pavilion should be carefully
analysed. This kind of ayadi-calculation is not recommended for the front-pavilion(agra
mandapa) and the associated corridor. Even the specific activity of laying the first brick need
not be performed separately for this. All other prescriptions for costructing the pavilions are
as told for the construction of the main shrine.
