[INDOLOGY] Help with word meaning

[Lubomír Ondračka]

Brahmasthāna is generally any centre, whether geometric (the central point of a town, village, building, temple, etc.) or of significance (garbhagṛha, main sacrificial site /balipīṭha/, etc.).
Sandhisthāna is the junction of any architectural units of the temple, whether vertical or horizontal.
