Or. the architect should examine the merits and demerits of the breadth
and length conditioned by the positions of ras'is. For both the square
man.d'ala and rectangular man.d'ala, the architect should consider
the perimeter only, not the length alone or the breadth alone.

For geometrical shapes other than the square and rectangle, in which the
building is proposed, the factors such as a'ya, vyaya and others may be
determined by the height or the length or the breadth. Or, the architect
who has well understood the scripture may examine those factors by
adding half of the height with half of the breadth , instead of taking the
perimeter. The perimeter which goes by the name sakala is also called
kumbhaka. The factors such as a'ya and others are to be examined mostly
by the measure of sakala or kumbhaka.
