Explanation
Vishnu Sthana handled politics, Vivasta Sthana dealt with Jyotish or astrology, Garun Sthana looked after travel and transport, and Mahendra Sthana covered military education.
Vishnu Sthana is paired with politics, the study of statecraft and governance.
Vivasta Sthana is matched with Jyotish, the science of astronomy and astrology.
Garun Sthana corresponds to travel and transport, concerned with movement and communication.
Mahendra Sthana is linked to military education, the training in arms and warfare.
Such department based organisation reflects how ancient centres of learning divided knowledge into specialised branches.
