Detailed Solution:

In traditional Indian temple architecture, the Garbhagriha refers specifically to the sanctum sanctorum, which is the innermost holy chamber that houses the principal deity.

पारंपरिक भारतीय मंदिर वास्तुकला में, गर्भगृह का तात्पर्य विशेष रूप से 'सैनक्टम सैनक्टोरम' से है, जो कि मंदिर का सबसे आंतरिक पवित्र कक्ष होता है जहाँ मुख्य देवता की मूर्ति स्थापित की जाती है।
