समर्थ नहीं है। विश्व का पालन करने के लिये, जिसके अनेक प्रकार के रूप हैं, वह विष्णु सब का रक्षण करें ।
श्री क्षेत्रात्मज मण्डन सूत्रधार प्रणीत वास्तुशास्त्र के देवतामूर्ति प्रकरण का पांचवां अध्याय पूर्ण हुआ ।
Even Brahma and the other gods are unable to adequately describe, and count and relate the signs and symbols of Vishnu's idols and the ceremonial Garuda-dhvaja pillars! May Vishnu, who guides and preserves the world, and has many forms, protect every being. (116).
Here ends the fifth chapter of the treatise on architecture, the Devata Murti Prakarnam, composed by the artisan Mandan, son of Kshetra, in which the statues of Vishnu, the test of Shaligramas and so forth have been discussed.
