The 'Vaisampayanam' an ancient text on the life of Mayan reveals this...

The disciples of Mayan understood well that the Supreme Lord presents himself as Vatthu (Vastu) by manifesting as a short duration of Time and setting the rhythmic order in action by limiting the Time to the duration of one and half an hour (one muhurta) so that the Vatthu could be duly worshipped during the specified time. They realized that the Primal Existent (substance) is indeed the Supreme Lord himself and it is Vatthu in its wholeness and perfection. Also, they realized that over and above these short durations of Time, there is one undivided and pure Time. Such enlightenment gained by them made the whole worlds wonder at. (Vaisampaynam 65)

They understood that Vatthu is indeed the Supreme reality and conceived that Vatthu is the most Divine and blissful form, meant for worship. They realized the uniqueness of the Vatthu and its inseparable unity with the Time. They realized the significant and innate nature of the Vatthu in such a way as to derive appreciations form all corners of the world. They rendered services to the Lord (Vastu Brahmam) and codified a perfect system of worshiping him. (Vaisampayanam 66)

Having gained well the power of knowing the basic truth and principles through systematic investigation, they were able to have a good access with authentic scriptures. Though the Primal substance is impervious to such investigations, they knew that It could be known through its own manifestations (forms and structures). The process that enabled them to arrive at the very root of the Primal source is called “ayadi.” Let us understand this unique process. (Vaisampayanam 67)

If “ayadi” is meticulously applied, they could be enlightened to understand the significance of each form; to design an elegant and everlasting house and to understand many more technical processes. They can gain mastery in constructing a beautiful edifice. The (disciples) studied the principles set forth in the scriptures and applied them accurately. (Vaisampayanam 68)
