Everything is made up of basic five elements – FIRE, WATER, EARTH, SPACE, and AIR. All These elements are only found on earth that is why it is the only planet that supports life and nature. If the residential and commercial buildings are constructed without any regards to these elements then how would it will give any benefits? From each of the basic elements we are getting a strange precious gift due to infinite powers of the universe. All materials in the world , irrespective of their size, shape , colour , physical or chemical compositions have embedded their origins from one of the Panchbhootas . They enjoy peculiar vibration levels, which are evading the intelligence of human beings. Vastu is in a position to reduce the gravity of the problems faced by human beings as well as industries particularly those suffering from sickness through vibrations of Panchbhootas, which has anchored their roots in the body of the human beings as well as the external and internal building configurations.

Vastu Purusha

Vastu Purusha is the god for construction of structures and buildings. Once upon a time, an unknown person came into existence and he obstructed the earth and the sky with his huge body. The Devtas suddenly caught the person and threw him below with his face down, and whichever part of the body of the person was held by different Devtas, the Devtas became presiding deities of that part of the body. The creator, Brahma, had made the person as “god of the house” - ‘Vastu Purusha.' There is another interesting story of Vastu Purusha in Matsya Purana. It narrates the birth of Vastu Purusha. In an encounter with a Rakshasa called Andhikasur, Lord Shiva became tired and exhausted, and he began to sweat profusely. A man was born out of the drops of Lord Shiva's sweat. He looked very cruel. He was very hungry and began to make penance to appease Lord Shiva and to get a boon from him. Lord Shiva was pleased with his penance and appeared before him. The devotee prayed to Lord Shiva, “Oh Lord! Please permit me to eat away all the three worlds.” Lord Shiva granted his prayer. He got possession of all the three worlds and was about to eat the terrestrial world. The celestial beings, Brahma, Shiva, and the demons were terrified and they caught hold of the devotee and encircled him. Forty-five deities caught hold of the devotee and pressed him down. This Devotee has been in that position ever since that time. Lord Brahma blessed him and said that he would be the deity of all the plots and constructions, and offerings would be made to him. In return Vastu Purusha is said to be taking care of the inmates of the building Vaastu is the more authorities and detailed counterpart of KALPURUSH. This branch of astrology does not do any predictive work but helps you to harness the nature's energy by letting the air, sunlight, water, fire and earth into your life from the RIGHT DIRECTION and in the RIGHT QUANTITY. According to VAASTU SHASTRA (The study of architecture) every kind of building / apartment has different directions which are favorable / unfavorable. Buildings / Apartments with good Vaastu have healthy, happy and prosperous owners. Whereas places with negative Vaastu energy will have losses, ill health, ill repute, hurdles etc.

There are prescribed directions / placements for all kind of settings in a built up structure. Some of the examples are:- 1.Direction for the Main Door (AIR) 2.Direction for the Portico. (AIR) 3.Placement for the Kitchen (FIRE) 4.Placement for Storage Water / Bathroom (WATER) 5.Placement of Place of Worship (LIGHT) 6.Placement of owners Bedroom / Office (EARTH) 7.Storage Area / Dark Area (EARTH) 8.Garden & Plants (EARTH)

Same principles are worked out in case of FACTORIES, OFFICES, INSTITUTIONS, ETC. The science of Vaastu does not only tell the CORRECT placement but also the ways to RECTIFY the PROPERTY WITH ILL INFLUENCES OF VAASTU. For example a SOUTH FACING house is not recommended for the purpose of living BUT if we make an ENTERANCE ON THE EASTERN END OF THE SOUTH PORTION the ill effect will VANISH. Your most important tool is a MAGNETIC COMPASS, which will tell you the basic directions of all the places in your property. YOU CAN USE THE HELP OF VAASTU SHASTRA IN THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES: - TO FIND THE CORRECT METHOD OF USING A MAGNETIC COMPASS - Read Instruction 1.In case of purchases of new property / renting of new property whether personal or commercial. 2.In case you are facing problems / hurdles round about the time you moved into the new place. 3.Find out your potential if you make your old house Vaastu compliant with minimum changes. 4.In case there is lack of harmony at home / work in spite of all other factors being favourable.
