Some details are now told briefly with regard to the installation of the retinue Deities. The
measures applicable to the shrine of the retinue Deity may be half the measures of the main
shrine. One part out of three parts of the width of the main shrine, half of that width, above
one fourth of that width may be the width of the retinue shrine. Or, the width may be from
one hasta to 11 hastas. The height of the retinue shrine should be held as said before. The
retinue shrines should be in the form of the shrine meant for the secondary linga.

These retinue shrines may be designed so as to be attached to the enclosure-wall. Or they
may be designed separately, without being attached to the wall. Being bereft of feet and other
features of an image, these retinue shrines have their faces turned towards the main shrine.
The retinue Deities which are in the east should be facing the west. The retinue Deities in
the west should be facing the east. Those in the south should be facing the north and those
in the north should be facing the south.
