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

The man.d'ala known as i's'varaka'nta is associated with two diagonals (and
with 961 grids). Va'stu Brahma who is seated at the center is assigned totally
625 grids. The four devas, Aryama' and others who are facing Brahma' occupy
fifty grids each. Among the eight directional deities, each deity occupies three
grids. Parjanya and other deities of the outer belt occupy four grids each. This
i's'varaka'nta pada is appreciably fit for agraha'ra and other settlements.

In the same way as stated before, indraka'nta man.d'ala is to be designed (as
consisting of two diagonals and 1024 grids). This man.d'ala is rightly applicable
to agraha'ra and others.

चतुष्षष्टिपदं दैवं मानुषं पारमेश्वरम् ।। १०८
evamu'rdhvam ca vijn"eyam ya'vatyastu parardhakam /
catus"s"as"ti padam daivam ma'nus"am pa'rames'varam // 108
In this way, even many more man.d'alas could be designed reaching the maximum
of one para'rdha grids(ten thousand millions of billions). It is to be known in a
specific way that the man.d'u'ka pada which consists of 64 grids is characteristically
held as daivika( meant for divinities). The paramas'a'yika pada which consists of
81 grids is characteristically known as ma'nus"a ( meant for human beings).
