Vastu is the science of direction
that combines all the five elements of nature and balance them
with the man and the material. Vastu Shastra is creating a
congenial settings or a place to live or work, in most
scientific way taking advantages of the benefits bestowed by the
five elements called "Paanchbhootas" of the nature
thereby paving the way for enhanced health, wealth, prosperity
and happiness in an enlightened environment.
The world comprises of five basic elements, also known as the
Paanchbhootas. They are Earth, Water, Air, Fire and Space. Out
of the nine planets, our planet has life because of the presence
of these five elements.
The Directions
The importance of orientation of a building is not only for
saving energy but
also to have a better house design, which not
only gives comfortable living
but also gives good health,
prosperity and wealth to the house owners/
occupiers and these
families. There lies a co-relation between the
rotational
scenario of the planets and the house design and their different
directions with respect of NORTH. The building of any type and
its
construction meets the purpose if proper orientation has
been given using suitable local building material. It increases
not only its life span but also improves the condition of
occupants. There are instances where buildings
are not planned
according to required local orientation were lost or
deteriorated much faster then the buildings having built with
proper studies of
orientation.
The proper orientation means the proper knowledge of all the
eight
directions. It is a common knowledge that the direction
from where the
Sun arises is known as East and where it sets as
West and when one faces
the East direction, towards one's left
is North and towards one's right is South.
The corner where two
directions meet obviously is more significant since it
combines
the forces emanating from both the directions. SO in all there
are eight directions , North, Northeast, East, Eastsouth, South,
Southwest, West, Westnorth. Every direction has its own
significance and has its own construction. The basic rules of
Vastu Shastra are based on these eight directions.
Vastu is essential
Vastu forms the basics of each construction; one must follow
Vastu from
the initial level i.e. from choosing a plot to shift
in the house. Everything
should be done according to Vastu
principle since Vastu is not merely a
word but it is a SCIENCE
and a bridge between man and nature.
Vastu is followed while choosing a plot, how to choose a plot:
the shape,
the nature of the soil. When and how to construct a
house, how to do the
interiors, how to choose colour and when to
shift. Vastu is such a deep
science that it is a pool of
information and one can have any doubts
cleared with proper
reasoning.
Vastu is unique
Vastu is a science that has originated from India. Feng shui is
an art
of harnessing energies. Though both have a same
objective, the benefit
of humanity but the principles are very
different. I am a strict follower of
Vastu as it is originated
from India and its based on our culture, traditions,
geographical conditions, climatical conditions and everything
for India.
And fengshui is originated in China and based on
their culture and
traditions.
