Sūta said:: If anyone repairs or rebuilds the old, dilapidated fallen or broken temples and reconstructs them with doors, etc. or if he repairs the mansion, platform, rampart or the ornamental gateway, he derives more benefit than even the original maker. There is no doubt about this. The man who does some job in the temple of Śiva though it be for his sustenance undoubtedly goes to the heavenly world along with his kinsmen. If a man does some job in the temple of Rudra even for once and for his own pleasure he attains happiness and rejoices. Hence, O excellent sages, the man who devoutly makes the temple by means of wood, bricks, etc., is. honoured in the world of Śiva.
