Being happy was the very first thing I noticed about living in
our house. It is hard to describe being really happy for the first
time since being a child, but that is the main experience from
living in a Maharishi Vastu home that I appreciate the most.
My husband was able to secure the best job of his career since
moving in here, and he directly credits the house for this help.
My health has improved greatly, and my life, as a whole, is in a
much more evolutionary direction now.
I also feel very protected and safe in this house. I cannot say
enough good things about living in a Maharishi Vastu home.

The reality of living in aFortune-Creatinghome is so much
more than I had ever considered. It has so far exceeded my
expectations that I cant really find the right words to expressit.
From the moment I moved into my house, my good fortune
increased. Not doubled, not quadrupled, but much greater thanthat. Things that used to be difficult to organize now organize
themselves.
I experience my home as a totally safe, secure refuge, a
sanctuary of purity and stillness and happiness. I feel that my
house protects me, not only when I am in it, but even when I
am away from it.
