Every creature in this world tries to arrange for a place in
which to live comfortably, enjoying all the luxuries and
happiness of this world getting maximum benefits of heavenly
boons.Every one is aspirant of having sound health,
beautiful wife, healthy children, wealth, means of earning
through business, profession or state service, high
reputation in society and over all mental and spiritual
peace. The sea animals and amphibians prepare a dwelling
place on the sea shore, the birds build nests in the trees,
the insects make a hive, and human beings are ambitious of
making a house on the earth where all the liabilities
towards this world and towards heaven can be fulfilled
without any disturbance and trouble. Therefore, aware of the
need of a house and in order to avoid troubles, man wants to
construct a house on such a ground where he can feel all
sorts or happiness and can lead a peaceful life free of
troubles and enemies, thereby deriving spiritual peace. With
this aim in his mind he sets out in search of the learned
wise persons who can guide him in selection of a site (plot)
of his choice, and also in construction of the house. He
wants to know the proper auspicious time, and principles
(laws) of construction of the house.lso he has in mind the
colony or city, neighbourhood, sources of water, natural
environment, means of transport, etc. while selecting a plot
for building a house, at the same time he thinks of his own
interests and profits. The external features of the plot can
be known with the help of persons living around or nearby
the flat. But the quality and nature of the land can be
judged only by Shastra. Therefore the selection of a site
and the plan of the building is materialised only after
consultation and seeking advice of expert astrologer and
Vaastu Specialist. |

There are saying like
Nadi Shotriyo Raja Devagyo Na Chikitasak Tatra Vaso Na
Kartavaya
A place where there is no river (Source of water - pond or
well etc.), scholar, astrologer, ruler and medical expert,
should not be selected for living thereon, it should be
rejected.
Dushta Bharya Shath Mitra Bhratiyaschottar Dayak;
Sasarpe Ch Grahey Vaso Mirturev Na Sanshaya.
If there is house in which lives an unfaithful wife, a
foolish friend , an outspoken servant and a snake, the owner
of such a house may die any moment.If such things are
associated with the house constructed by some one, the life
of the inmates becomes troublesome and unhappy, and there is
always a fear of death.Therefore everyone is curious to know
as to what is Vaastu Shastra, and what principles and
methods regarding construction of buildings have been given
by the ancient saints and seers on the basis of their
experience and commands in the divine scriptures. With the
help of Vaastu Shastra and Shilpshastra, knowledge about the
better and auspicious way of construction of a house, the
positions and direction of gates, doors and rooms etc. in
it, is gained so that a house may be built which will
provide all round prosperity and happiness to the inmates.
Thus Vaastu Shastra provides some principles and rules on
the guidelines of which suitable and comfortable buildings
for residence, temples, etc. are built and towns, colonies
are planned. |

What is Vastu Shastra ? |
| |
Vastu Shastra is an ancient science which helps one to get
the natural benefits freely offered by the five basic
elements of the universe in which we all live. These basic
elements are Akash (SKY), Prithvi (EARTH), Paani (WATER),
Agni (FIRE), and Vayu (WIND). Vastu Shastra can be applied
by keeping in harmony with these basic five elements of
nature.
One sometimes feels that inspite of having all the required
resources for achieving success in the work field one is not
getting the desired and deserved result and it should not be
a surprise to oneself that it could be due to the fact that
either ones office or factory is not planned according to
the science of Vastu Shastra.
Similarly one might feel that the wheel of family life is
not moving smoothly and there is lack of peace, harmony,
affection and well being in one’s family. One should get the
architecture of his house examined and if need be modified
as per Vastu Shastra. One is bound to expect good results
and well being gradually and steadily.
We sincerely hope that Vastu Shastra one day will end all
miseries and sorrows and bring joy and happiness in
everybody’s life. |

God is present in the direction of North - East, it is
believed. That is why our ancestors always insisted on
having water body on this direction to ensure prosperity.
Now see the geographical location of a small nation like
Japan one of the most largest water body in the form of the
Pacific Ocean which explains the reason of its growing
prosperity.
* Take the example of Mumbai city. On its South - East side
where Agni is located , is the atomic power plant and in the
direction of North - East is the water body which is why
compared to other ports, Mumbai port is more prosperous.
* The city of London is famous and rich because situated on
more or less the ideal principles of Vastu Shastra.
* At the root of the progress and prosperity of the cities
like New York, London, Mumbai, Singapore, Hong Kong etc. are
always the benedictory principles of Vastu Shastra, it is
found. As one progresses towards North-East in United States
of America the land becomes richer and richer, it is found.
* Study the location and construction of the famous temple
of Tirupati from the Vastu Shastra angle. Its prosperity
legendary thanks mainly to the exemplary implementation of
the principles of Vastu Shastra. The main temple is situated
on the South - West side of the temple precint. On its North
- East direction is a lake and pond. The dining hall of the
temple is on South-East side while the North-West and North
side of the temple is allocated to the godown for grains and
items require in the kitchen. The entire temple precinct is
of square shape as a result of which its axis and that of
the Earth are perpendicular to each other. The main temple
is occupying only the one fourth area of the total precinct
and on its Eastern and Northern side is open area. Thus the
Tirupati temple of Lord Balaji is an ideal place according
to the norms of Vastu Shastra which is why it is the most
prosperous temple on the earth. |
