Vastu Purusha and deities

Note: All the entries are in English language for this puzzle

Vastu Purusha is a mythical man finding description in all the Vastu texts. There are different stories associated with him. Different deities occupy different parts of his body. This association of his body with different deities further with directions forms the basis of what we call as 'Vastu-Purusha Manda' or simply 'Vastu Mandala'. This mandala or grid is the basic guide for house and town planning alike. This information is based the 14th chapter of Samarangana Sutradhara.
