Dive into the wisdom of the ages with this enlightening translation of the revered scripture, 'Samrangan Sutradhar', one of the foundational texts of Vastu Shastra. A masterpiece attributed to the visionary ruler, Shri Bhojadeva of Dhar, this text from the 10th Century, originally composed in the rich Sanskrit language, unfolds the intricate principles of Vastu Shastra.

The term ‘Samrangan Sutradhar’ which translates to ‘Conductor of the Battlefield Arena’ beautifully encapsulates the role of a master orchestrator, in the planning and construction of temples, cities, and buildings, reflecting the metaphorical ‘battlefield’ of architectural creation and spatial organisation.

Meticulously translated to preserve the essence and depth of the original Sanskrit verses, the first volume of ‘The Samrangan Sutradhar Retold’ brings the rich traditions of Vastu Shastra to the modern reader. Key chapters to delve into include: Chapter 4 —_Mahadādisargaḥ_, which explores the Creation of the Great Elements, providing foundational insights into the elemental theories of Vastu Shastra. Chapter 11 —_Vāstutrayavibhāgo_, discusses The Three Divisions in the Vastu Pada System, offering a detailed look at spatial and architectural zoning. Chapter 14 — _Puruṣāṅgadevatā Nighaṇṭvādi Nirṇaya_, examines the Deities Associated with Vāstupuruṣa's Body, linking the physical space to spiritual dimensions. These chapters are essential for understanding the intricate connections between cosmology, architecture, and spirituality in Hindu traditions.

The Samarangana Sutradhar is not just a technical manual but an eloquent discourse on the spiritual and philosophical underpinnings of Hindu architecture.

Embark on a journey through time with this treasure trove of architectural wisdom, an essential read for enthusiasts of history, architecture, and spirituality.
