VASTU

VASTUSHASTRA
Essentially deals with solar and energy flux of geomagnetic flux
The science OF Vastu aims at controlling the flow of theses energies
Location of windows , walls ,doors , loads colour scheme , flooring and zoning , planting of
tress all parameter are play there parts in enhancing the energy for human life.

EASTERN THOUGHTS
It is a concept of holistic harmony
Depends on four parameter -vibration , waves sound and light

VIBRATION
Motion that repeat itself in equal intervals
Oscillary vibratory ( movt. of a particle to and froth in a periodic motion)
Dissipation of energy of motion due to frictional forces .in oscillatory system can be removed
by feeding energy in the system.
Eg. Balance wheel of watch, sitar stings etc. radio waves ,microwaves are oscilaating
magnetic and electrical field vector
 WAVES
Vibratory motion in a continuum in relation to time and space
They can be positive and negative depending on characteristics of waves
Harmonic polarised waves beneficial, whereas chaotic waves obstructions in a smoothly
flowing life pattern
Eg. Ocean waves, ripples in lake, electromagnetic and pressure waves

SOUND
Human ear perceives any sound as melody or noise on the basic of constructive and
destructive intercation of waves
Ancient Hindu science Aum and Mantras brings positive changes in human life
Halos and Aura around a person can be traced to the sound energy working at micro
cellular level

LIGHTS
In spiritual dimension the light is some holistic knowledge that has to be attained
Mind is termed as Tejas Dravyam in Upanishads and human consciousness in holistically
correlated with light and energy
 INVERTED VOLCANO OF COSMIC ENERGY
Geological terms Volcano is a opening in earth crust where lava and gases emerges.
In life volcano is suppressed feeling or state of affairs which can cause violent outburst
Old master designers of vastrushastra
South, Southwest and West are involved in inverted volcano
North is source , south is sink of electromagnetic flux lines
East and west have excessive cosmic radiation particles practically east rather than west

IN INDIA
South, Southwest and Southeast excessive solar radiation
North , Northeast and East shadow region
Remedies to offset the chaotic condition in southern zone:
Avoid opening
Provision of thick and cavity walls
Planting of trees in south especially Audumber types-exhales water vapous
Constructing extra f loor in south with terraces towards north and west
Prescribing bore wells ,basements and underground water tanks
Elevating the plinth of south side rooms
Placing heavy furniture and loads
 VORTEX OF ENERGY IMBALANCES

A vortex is a mass of rotating or whirling fluid

It is sources of tremendous negative energy. It create a imbalance in forces which triggers the
formation of vortex in energy.
Eg. Thermal imbalances around house
Northwest ,north and northeast shadow region undisturbed geomagnetic flux ,achieves
the rhythm and harmony beneficial to human . Soma and Ish are deities in this direction
South , southeast and South west high solar radiation hence excessive thermal activity.
Agni ,Yama and Niruta deities in this direction
Remedy by balancing the negative forces acting on vastu through solid matter as a static
equaliser

CYCLIC HELIX OF MATTER BALANCE

HELIX the natural groeth of mystic symbols
and magic of the almighty
It a mystic symbol in ancients scriptures .
Eg Aum- confluence of three spirals or helices
,chinese Yin yang- double helix
Relative mass density for different direction
Adhering the following rules to implement helix concept in house
Align the entire house in south west zone with max margin to north and east
Provide underground tank or boring well in north to achieve reducing in matter and
geometrical stability.
Terraces in north , northeast and northwest zones . Roof slopes and ground slopes in south
and west direction.
No trees in north , northeast and east direction to maitain original balance state in energy
fields.
In elevation northeast to be the lowest point and southwest to be highest point
Plinth increased towards south ,southeast southwest direction and gradual reduced towards
north northeast and west zones

ENERGY FORMS MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH

YOGASHASTRA
Two streams of energy moon and sun through Ida and Pingala nadis
Central stream- Brahma or Shushubhna nadi
These link individual and cosmos to form unified energy or Akshayatwa
Good happens in Ida and bad in Pingula stream
 There are two source of energy - SUN and MOON
North region represents positive and good , divine and auspicious effects
South region represents negative energy
Sun in north the organic energy and solar energy flow in same direction hence spread positive
energies
Sun in south the organic and solar energy are mutually opposite spewing negative energies
Finer the element or energy wider the effect of great element
Amongst the five element sky or ether are the most powerful elements . Fire ,wind ,water
and earth have reducing effects of effectiveness.
The mass energy equivalence and wave particle concepts can enhance the positive energies
through resonance effect
Polarisation of energies is necessary for consolidated action
 VASTU MANDALA

Mandala is a celestial graph and has a plots or quarters in it ,which are created by equal sub
divisions on both sides.
Some plots or quarters represents divine forces others represents demonic , animals, plants
and other qualities
They guide the planning and positioning of various elements on the site. Ensure optimum use
of space and energy.

 VEDIC VASTU

Eastern thinking consider vastu to be a living soul acting as a companion to the vastu
occupants
The ritual of vastu shanti aims at removing elements from living spaces inside the vastu and
replacing it with cosmoic powers
Yogashshstra three basic energy-
Ida, the chandra nadi
Pingula, the surya nadi
Shushubhna ,the brahma nadi
