All those lines which reach the eastern boundary of the man.d'ala are known
as ka'rya su'tra. Those lines which reach the northern boundary of the man.d'ala
are known as anuka'rya su'tra. In this Scripture, Ka'mika, it is rightly established
that all these ka'rya lines and anuka'rya lines are to be governed by the measure
of pra'n.a su'tra.
तानि पुंस्त्री स्वरूपाणि कीर्तितानि क्रमेण तु ।
प्राणवायुप्रमाणेण द्विगुणाश्चानु वंशकाः ।। १०
वास्तुमध्ये महावंश पार्श्वगास्तु प्रकीर्तिताः।
त्रिगुणश्च महावंशो वास्तुमध्ये प्रकीर्तिताः ।। ११

pra'n.ava'yu prama'n.ena dvigun.a's'va'nu vams'aka'h // 10
va'stu madhye maha'vams'a pa'rs'vaga'stu praki'rtita'h /
trigun.as'ca maha'vams'o va'stu madhye praki'rtita'h // 11
The east-west lines are considered as of male gender in nature. The north-west
lines are considered as of female gender in nature. There are lines
known as anuvams'a whose measure is twice the measure of pra'n.su'tra.
They are on both sides of (and parallel to) the maha'vams'a which goes
through the center of the va'stu man.d'ala. The length of the maha'vams'a
which runs through the center of the man.d'ala is thrice the length of
pra'n.a su'tra.
