Why the North East (Eesanya)
is the sacred most in Vastu. . Why the people consider South
West (Nairuti ) as the worst direction? Is the Vastu merely
a blind belief?
The sun is furthest to the India when it is to the Eesanya.
The sun is closest when it is to the Nairuti. That is the
reason why Vastu always dictates that the North East area
of a Home be kept open. Nairuti always be blocked as the
dangerous ultra violet rays enter from this direction.
Vastu is not a mere superstition. It is both a science
and an art. The Word Vastu has its origins from Vas meaning
to live. Kshetram (Space) and Kalam (Time) are the most
important elements in this life science.
Ancient India had immensely benefited by this science
of architecture. Their happy lives are the perfect testimony
for the usefulness of the Vastu. The experience of fore
fathers had proved that the planning of villages, towns,
cities and capitals of ancient India was the best and gave
the most health, pleasant and practical layout. The easterly
axis of the plan ensured that the principle streets were
purified by the rays of the sun sweeping through them all
through the day. The intersection of main streets by shorter
ones running from north and south provides perfect circulation
of air and the maximum benefit of the cool breeze.
Vastu principles take in to account the Solar Energy
and Magnetic power of the earth. Cosmic Energy is also
considered. Powerful sun rays affect the hole of the body.
Particularly the brain. If we spend considerable time in
the rooms which are not guarded from this dangerous rays
our mental composure will be affected severely.
Every body who know basic principles of science are well
aware the fact that the human body is full of blood. Hemoglobin
is the pigment which gives color to the blood. Hemoglobin
contains iron. The entire body is considered to be a magnet.
Our head is the North and the feet are the South. It is
known fact that the like poles repel each other. If we
sleep by keeping the head on North direction, blood circulation
to the brain increases. During sleep, brain and the body
requires less blood circulation. That is the reason why
Vastu always suggest us to keep the head towards South
or West while sleeping.
Like this, each and every Vastu tenet has scientific base.
Vastu gives us a route map on how to create a building
that vibrates with Positive Energy. The basics are orientation,
auspicious entry, room locations has a lot to do with astronomy,
architecture, mathematics, magnetism and physics. Vastu
architecture always prefers symmetry. Every time you enter
your house you energy in relationship to the Vastu mandala
of the house at that point.
A door must be precisely oriented for the activation
of positive energy. The structure and orientation of the
building sets up a vibration that either nourishes drains.
If you live in the Vastu compliant building or which is
against the Vastu principles it will have some effect,
no matter who owns it. If you really desire to live peacefully,
you must follow the Vastu as much as you can.
Is it possible to follow the Vastu in crowded cities?
Vastu prefers four directions of the home open. If not
at least East and North directions be open.
It is impossible to follow Vastu principles completely
in cities which are crowded by the skyscrapers. Vastu advises
you to keep all the four directions of your home be kept
open. At best Vastu prefers East and North directions open.
You can’t do much if your home is covered by huge
structures from all the three directions. So we don’t
have much control in exteriors. The space between four
walls is ours. We can adopt Vastu principles as much as
we can for interiors.
ORIENTATION THE HOUSE:
In Hyderabad real estate market, North and the East are
the most preferred orientations. East and North face flats
will have a premium when compared with remaining two directions.
Is the Vastu prefers these two orientations only. Are the
West and South face flats unfavorable? True Vastu never
said so. Vastu tenets say that the house needs to be in
a particular alignment with north south, east, West. So
nothing wrong in choosing West or South face flats. Only
stipulation is that it should not be more than 10 degrees
off this orientation.
West is also best:
The idea behind this is that the structure is to resonate
with earth and cosmic energies. One of the pre conditions
for this resonance is alignment with East, West, North
and South. Vastu gives equal importance to four directions.
Each direction has it own importance.
