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

For the attainment of all comforts and wealth, a'ya and other factors related to the
measurement of the building are to be examined either based on its length and breadth,
or height. While analyzing, the full hasta measure is to be maintained( avoiding the
fractions of a hasta). A'ya and other factors may be examined based on the length
alone or the width alone or height alone or from the combined measure of length and
breadth.

The taken measure(of length or width or height) is to be multiplied by 8, 3, 3 and 8
and divided by 10, 8, 14 and 27 respectively. The remainders obtained denote a'ya,
vyaya, yoni and naks"atra respectively. It is to be divided by 30 to know the tithi
aspect of the taken measure and by 7 to know the va'ra aspect of the taken measure.
Or, a'ya and other factors may be examined in other way also.
