Vastushastra (architecture)
Source: Brill: Śaivism and the Tantric Traditions (architecture)Saṃsthāpya (संस्थाप्य) refers to “establishing (mobile or fixed images) (in a temple)”, according to verse 4.243 of the Mohacūrottara (Mohacūḍottara), a Śaiva text from the 10th century.—Accordingly, “The reward that a wise man gains from establishing (saṃsthāpya) a mobile image [i.e. an ascetic] in a maṭha is the same as the reward that he gains from establishing (saṃsthāpya) a fixed image in 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.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
