Now I will explain the details related to the pratibandha type of adhis"t'ha'na. If the total
height of the base is divided into 23 parts, jagati takes 8 parts and kumuda takes 8 parts. A'lin'ga
(fillet) takes a half part and the other members of the base are to be held as explained before.
If the total height is divided into 22 equal parts, kumuda takes 8 parts as before and vajana and
kapota take half part each. Prati takes 3 parts and padma takes 5 parts. This knid of adhis"t'ha'na
is highly recommended for the devas, brahmins and the kings(kshatriyas). This is not fit for
other castes.

Eight parts are for the padma; one part is for the kan.t'ha(neck); 5 parts are for the padma and
kumuda; one part is for the padma; 2 parts are for the a'lin'ga(fillet); 2 parts are for the antarita
(fillet); 3 parts are for the height of prati. One part is for the padma and projection(kshepana).
In this way, the architect who is the foremost among the knowers of this technique should
design the base whose height is divided into 23 equal parts.
