**Somasen Bhattaraka's Composition:**
Afterward, according to the length and width of the Jain temple, a platform should be built for the "Peethavandh" (altar). First, the "Garbhagar" (sanctum sanctorum) should be constructed. Following this, the doors, the "Sutranivas" (a place for scriptures), the "Mandap" (hall), and the "Vedika" (platform) should be built in sequence. Outside the doors of the "Mandap", four "Paswad" (wings) should be constructed: a beautiful "Chitrashala" (picture gallery), a "Swadhyaya Shala" (study hall), a "Natya Shala" (theater) adorned with various paintings, a "Vayashala" (music hall), and a beautiful "Manastambh" (pillar of thought). The Jain temple should be built with all these auspicious features.
When the temple is complete, take the artisans along with you and, on an auspicious day, go to bring the stone for making the "Jinabimb" (statue of the Tirthankara) with music and grand decorations. After visiting famous and sacred places, go to rivers, mountains, and forests to find a smooth, hard, pleasant, and resonant stone. Bring this excellent stone and entrust it to skilled sculptors for making the "Jinabimb". || 19 ||
**Characteristics of the Jinabimb:**
The "Jinabimb" should be free from hair, marks of shaving, and lines. It should have straight, long, hanging hands, the "Srivatsa" mark, and be "Digambar" (sky-clad). It should be in either "Khadgasana" (standing posture) or "Palyankasana" (lotus posture), according to the principles of sculpture. It should be free from weapons, women, and defects like raised eyebrows. It should be free from ornaments and have a cheerful face and eyes. The "Jinabimb" can be made of stone, gold, silver, brass, bronze, coral, pearls, and precious gems like lapis lazuli. It can also be made of paintings, plaster, or even sandalwood. It should have eight "Pratihar" (guards) and all auspicious limbs. The "Jinabimb" should be made by a worthy person, with its limbs imbued with the essence of emotions. || 25-29 ||
The "Jinabimb" that is made should possess these characteristics.
