In the two parts below, a mark in the form of half barley grain should be made as an alternative.
These two marks should not be touched by the two side lines. For the easy
possibility of drawing the marks for all lingas, three lines should be drawn in the middle.
Out of the 16 parts of the height, 4 parts should be left out in the top portion. And, in the
remaining 12 parts, a channel(nala) should be drawn with a lotus-bud design at its top. This
channel should terminate at two parts from below. If the rudra part is divided into three
equal parts, one part should be left out at the top. If the remaining 15 parts are again divided
into 10 parts, one part should be taken for the mark of lotus-bud. If the length of the channel is
divided into eight equal parts, thickness of the channel should be equal to one part.

Beginning from the lotus-bud, theAcharya should draw the curving side lines so as to
proceed backwards. The point at which these two curved side lines meet at the back is known
as manirekha.
रुद्रांशे रुद्रभागे तु गुणांशमुपरिन्यसेत्।
एकेन मुकुली नालं सप्तांशं इति कीर्तितम् ।। ४५
रुद्रांशं नवधाकृत्वा चोर्ध्वे भागत्रयं त्यजेत् ।
मुकुलं चैकभागेन नालं पञ्चांशतो भवेत् ।। ४६
षोडशांशे पुनस्तस्मिन् त्यजेदूर्ध्वं चतुष्टयम् ।
मुकुलं चैकभागेन दशांशं नालमिष्यते ।। ४७
