In Hinduism
Vastushastra (architecture)
1) Examination of the Land, before the construction of a temple, is recommended in the Mayamata and Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, an ancient Sanskrit text which (being encyclopedic in nature) deals with a variety of cultural topics such as arts, architecture, music, grammar and astronomy.—In the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, a strict guideline is seen for the selection of land for a temple. The examination of land is strongly recommended in the Mayamata also. According to the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, the land for temple should be accompanied with the sources of water and the temple should be made on the left side or in front of that reservoir of water. Islands are regarded as the best sites for temples by the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa as they are surrounded by water.
2) Examination of Stones was carefully done by professional astrologers and architects for the purpose of procuring Materials for the Construction of Temples.—Finding of proper types of materials is one of the important aspects for any construction. The quality of stones is very important in the construction of temple. Indian scriptures state that to procure the stones, the astrologer and the architect should go to mountain and examine the stones. In the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa a proper examination of stone is suggested in this regard. The stone used in the Architecture of a temple should be uniform in colour, glossy, underground, massive, soft, broad in size, void of sand, clean and washed in pure water, placed under the shade of trees or it may be lying near a temple.
Vastushastra (वास्तुशास्त्र, 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.
