It is set forth here in this Agama that the height of the image to be placed inside the casket
should be from one fourth of an angula to eight angulas, starting from one
fourth and increasing successively by one fourth up to eight. The height of the
vehicle of the concerned deity should be half of the height of its image. The image may be
designed as either seated or a standing one. Having placed all the substances
in this way, the Acharya should close the casket with the lid reciting the isana mantra.

Having wrapped around the casket with two garments and with darbha-grass, he should
worship it with sandal, flowers, incense, light , cooked rice, fruits and other eatables.

Then, having lifted the casket with both hands and with reverence, the acharya should
place it on a raised altar(sthandila). Being assisted by the Agama-reciting priests
(murtipa), he should perform the necessary fire-ritual for offering the oblations.
