Vastushastra (architecture)
: McGill: The architectural theory of the Mānasāraܱ貹پ (भुवनाधिपति).—During the ritual of “opening of the eyes�, explained in Mānasāra chapter 70, the sthapati (master builder) worships Śiva as ܱ貹پ, “Lord of the Universe� (or in theological terms, Lord of the 224 bhuvanas, planes of experience), conceived to be present in the main water pitcher on the altar. Holy incense and lamp are waved before the (yet) unmanifested deity; offerings of sandal-paste, flowers, molasses, corn, milk, curdled milk, clarified butter and rice are made to it.
While laying the foundation, he meditates upon Śiva in his emanate form of Viśvakarman, creator, and as ܱ貹پ, lord of the universe, who is the ground of its creation, preservation and dissolution.

Vastushastra (वास्तुशास्त्�, vāstuśāstra) refers to the ancient Indian science (shastra) of architecture (vastu), dealing with topics such architecture, sculpture, town-building, fort building and various other constructions. Vastu also deals with the philosophy of the architectural relation with the cosmic universe.
