    Vaastu Shastra

    Vaastu originated in India during the Vedic Civilization. Vaastu Shilpa shastra, as it is formally known is the ancient mystic science of designing and building. Vaastu is a part of Vedas, which are believed to be four to five thousand years old. This art originates in the Stapatya Veda, a part of the Atharva Veda, one of the four Vedas. Vaastu Shastra is based on five basic and essential elements known as the Panchabhutas: Vaayu (air), Agni (fire) Jal, (water), Bhumi (earth) and Aakasha (space).

    Vaastu which is Sanskrit for dwelling, is a science of directions and it accounts for 8 directions;

    North - Kuber is the lord of this direction. ,
    South - Yama is the lord of this direction.,
    East-  Sun is the lord of this of this direction.,
    West -
    Varun is the lord of this direction.,
    North-East (Ishaan),
    North-West (Vayavya),
    South-East( (Agni) and
    South-West (Nairitya).

    Vaastu Shastra and Feng Shui are very similar concepts. Difference is that Vaastu is an Indian concept based on ancient Vedas while Feng Shui is of Chinese origin. They have their own laws and principles. Both use a number of different approaches to connect with the energy or "feel" the place. Vaastu is based on science. Feng Shui is based on local geographic considerations and traditions. They both utilize the five elements; however,

    Vaastu uses earth, water, fire, air and space; whereas Feng Shui replaces earth and space with wood and metal.

    Vaastu Tips:

    House should be close to a square. The building should be built leaving open space on all sites. Bathroom normally preferred in East.

    South-east corner is the seat of the god of fire, Agnidev. So activities involving  fire/heat (Kitchen) should be made in this corner, then only the house will be trouble free.

    Keep the place free from clutter. Always helps.

    Water bodies in north or east are considered good. Bathrooms and toilets should be adjacent to the north- east corner.

    Keep your money in the cashbox that opens towards the north because the north is direction of Kuber who represents wealth.

    The master bedrooms should be in the South West corner of the house.

    Front door should be well-lit that brings energy to the house.
