Vastu in Modern Times

Vastu is originated from the creator (Brahma) who taught this science to several sages, Rishies. Sages disseminated this knowledge of Vastu shilpa sastra to their followers to benefit the larger interest of mankind and the universe. Vastu is derived from the verb ”VAS” means to dwell and also the place of residence.

Viswakarma, Maya and many more are the sthapathis (Architects Sculptors, Engineers, painters, Interior Designers etc, of devas and Asuras dealing with the science of Vastu. The most important books like Manasara, Mayamatam Viswakarma, Vastu sastram, Vastu vidya, Silpa Vignana Sangraham Silparatnam, Brihatsamhita etc and many more written in sanskrit are the classics of Vastu. In addition to the above ancient works, the principle vastu shilpsastra are abundantly found in the various puranas like Agni purana, Brahmananda purana, Devi Purana, Varaha Puranam, Vishnu Dharmottara Puranam etc.

According to Indian Shilpacharyas the term Shilp Shastra includes the three division of vastu, Construction of houses, Temples, Palaces etc., otherwise known as architecture.

Temples, living places, Assembly Halls, Hotels, Guest Houses, Audience Rooms and a host of structures to meet the needs of men of all grades are thus so adjusted in plan as to secure and give importance to Eastern frontage.

The next step consists in the determination of true East, for which elaborate rules are laid down even as the construction progresses from the base upwards to the top. Conservation of angular momentum of the planet Earth due to its tremendous rotation from west to East and its axis of rotation, interplanetary attractions and repulsion’s were considered while planning and designing of human and animal settlements.

Formula of Success

Here we are elaborating a unique and simple formula which would help you to understand and effectively apply the basic rules of Vastu Shastra. This formula is so devised that it brings under its fold every kind of industrial, commercial and residential premises.

1. 1. North and East = L L (Lesser and Lighter)

   Since both north and east directions are extremely important, every effort should be made to make their maximum use; as more open space in north or east gives name, fame and prosperity. Both these sides are kept lower and lighter ensuring that there is no obstruction or hurdle in the way of the north’s magnetic field and the sun rays coming form the east. This also means that the compound walls in the north and the east area would be lower and lighter. Also the land level in these areas would be lower.

2. 2. South and West = H H (Higher and Heavier)

   Since leaving more open space in South/West side in the house can affect the male members badly; whereas in industry it leads to financial loss and quarrel amongst partners/executives; we would always like to minimize open space on these directions; making these sides heavier and higher. The weight will give maximum resistance to the positive energy on these sides. Hence, we should have higher and thicker compound walls, higher land levels, heavier furniture and so on.

3. 3. North East = Lst Lst ( Lowest and Lightest)

   This is the highest positive side and needs to be maximized. That is exactly why this side is kept lowest and lightest. No obstruction or hurdle of even a small stature should be placed here.

4. 4. South-West = Hst Hst (Highest and Heaviest)

   This side itself is named after a Demon. This is something which we would like to keep under control and hence this is the highest and the heaviest area. This side would have the highest trees, the highest part of the compound wall, heaviest of machinery, furniture and so on.

5. 5. North-West : TT (Temporary and Transitory)

   This is a side which is always indicative of movement. You should place here everything that is transitory and temporary in nature. For instance, in a house this is an ideal place for the living room/drawing room or guestroom as in this direction the guest do not stay for long period. In an industry the finished goods and room for visiting officials of various Govt. Departments are to be kept there as the owner would not like either to stay for a long time.

6. 6. South-East: FF ( Fire and Flame)

   This side is called agneya which means fire. Hence everything related to fire and flame comes here. For instance in the house, kitchen is the place where you have fire and hence, is to be placed here. In an industry this is where the furnace, generator, transformer, boiler etc. should be located for best results.

7. 7. Brahma Sthan: OEE (Open, Even and Empty)

   The Brahma Sthan is the central area of any place. This space is to be kept open to the sky, the land level should be even i.e. there should not be any level difference here and this area should be empty. There should be no weight placed on the Brahma Sthan. In case of a totally constructed factory the Brahma Sthan can be painted white for demarcation so that any weight is not placed on it even by mistake. In case of a large factory, the Brahma Sthan, can be earmarked with beautiful grass and suitably protected by a fencing.
