द्विभुजस्य तु शान्तिकरो दक्षिणहस्तो अपरश्च शङ्खधरः । एवं विष्णोः प्रतिमा कर्तव्या भूतिं इच्छद्भिः ॥ ५८-३५ ॥

If the image of Viṣṇu be made with only four hands, one of the two right hands shall hold the stick and the other shall be raised as an abhaya-hasta. Of the two left hands, one shall hold the conch-shell and the other the discus.
