Adapun Prasasti yang diletakan di teras II terdapat empat prasasti, yaitu Prasasti I, Prasasti II, Prasasti III, Prasasti VI, tetapi tidak ada satu pun prasasti yang diletakan di teras III. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, penelitian ini bermaksud untuk mengetahui tata letak prasasti berdasarkan kajian keagamaan sehingga diketahui alasan prasasti diletakan di teras yang berbeda-beda dan fungsi Situs Astana Gede. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa masing-masing teras menandakan tingkatan yang berbeda-beda berdasarkan konsepsi keagamaan, yaitu konsep triloka. Prasasti di teras I berisi keagamaan yang mengartikan tahap pertama manusia dalam kehidupan harus mempelajari agama. Teras II adalah tingkatan lebih tinggi dengan prasasti berisi moral.
