East Street Focus :-

If one street hits to a house or factory it’s called as Street Focus, and also its called as Veedhi (Bheedhi) shoola. Whether that street is in good place or bad place but the effect is so powerful. If one house is having good street focus then the inmates of that house will be getting regular good alerts, all success, happy, health, wealth, joy, harmony, unexpected profits, sudden good happenings and etc.But here a street hits on east side of the house or factory, some times this street focus renders good results and some times it renders bad results, why because, if the street focus left side or hitted house right side is having others houses, then the east side streetPlot with a treasure trove

Why people don't prefer "Veedisula houses"? What are the effects on the house? Will the problem be solved if we put lord Ganesha's statue opposite to the road?

C A Latha, Ramachandrapuram.

Vastu specialists play a major role in clarifying such doubts rather than creating illogical inhibitions. According to vastu principles, there are four road hits, which are considered to be highly positive, and there are four road hits, which are considered to be highly negative. Let us see the positive road hits first. The road hit from northeast east is considered to be good because, it gives name, fame and prosperity to the owner of the plot. The road hit from northeast north is also good as it gives excellent prosperity and financial soundness to the owner. As the availability of these plots is rare they should be bought whenever found. The road hit from northwest west is good as it offers excellent business propositions and satisfies political aspirations. Ladies will flourish and all round happiness is present in such plots. The road hit from southeast south is also good as it brings good luck in finance and offers excellent financial growth for the owner.

The negative road hits are considered to be futile for the owner, but correction can always be done in them. Each correction should be dealt with care and precision under the guidance of a vastu specialist. The road hit from the southeast east is bad and offers financial misery and litigation problems. The road hit from the northwest north is also considered to be bad and produces imbalances in income and business. Dwindling fortunes is the prime problem in such plots. The roads hits from southwest west and southwest south are no good to and must be rejected when the roads and plots are very big.

Lord Ganesha is the God of 'Mooladhara Chakra', which is the basis for elementary quality efforts and hence this lord can remove problems therefore his blessings would be helpful in eradicating all the problems of the plot. But care must be taken to correct the plots first and then place the idol at a proper place.

Vastu is like an arithmetical equation

I have thought of buying a flat, which is south facing. The flat is very good according to me and perfect as per vastu. I would like to buy this provided you also find it suitable. I am sending the drawing for your suggestion.

Chinta Suresh Kumar,Padmaraonagar

I have checked up the flat drawing you have sent. The flat is not according to vastu principles. The major problems I see are:

a) The flat has a northeast north cut, which cannot be rectified; it looks as if all the flats in this corner of the building have the same problem.

b) The flat has a northeast bedroom with southwest west entry. Hence this cannot be used as a bedroom. At best it can be converted into a living or study room and must not be allocated to any person. Since there are already two bedrooms the possibility of creating another bedroom in other areas is almost nil.

c) The kitchen is located in the southwest zone, which is a negative place, with no possible corrections.

d) The main entry to the flat is from southwest south and there is no possibility to correct this entry as it is situated in the central lounge of the floor.

e) Readers may please note that vastu is a perfect science, which indicates that there will be northeast problem wherever there is southwest problem. It is like an arithmetical equation and readers can observe this phenomenon almost everywhere.

f) With all the above problems this flat must be rejected and is not fit for buying. Please check all your points correctly before taking a proper decision instead of jumping to conclusions by seeing one or two points. Vastu decisions must always be a comprehensive one.

Design carefully the central place of the house

I have good interest in trees and plants. There is lot of greenery surrounding my house. I plan to plant some trees and plants in the center. What types of trees are allowed here? Please explain the details.

B Madhavi, BHEL Township.

The central place of the house is called the 'Garbha' or the 'Brahma Sthana'. This area is very carefully designed in vastu. This is open to sky to have good ventilation. The old houses one sees in the villages even today are called, as "Manduva Houses" and are very good according to vastu.

This area cannot be low level. In fact it can be slightly higher than the regular floor level where an opening for the sky is planned. The central place of house should not have water storage. It also cannot have pointed loads like pillars and staircases. This creates lot of problems for the inmates.

In the same way this area is not allowed to have greenery or trees as planned by you. This can create imbalances in the house. I strongly recommend that you don't have any greenery in this area. If there are problems in the house, a 'Tulasi' plant can be allowed here. This plant can help bring peace and prosperity.

Increase in southeast east affects northeast east cut

I am buying a plot, which has an increase in the southeast east. Can I buy this and construct a house.

Mone Balraj, Ramanthapur

Since you did not send the sketch or details of the plot, I would generalise the answer. The increase in southeast east would cause a definite northeast east cut. Hence such plots must not be bought. But they can be corrected. The following conditions can be examined and the decision can be taken.

When south is not extending too much in comparison to north side, the plot can be corrected. You must remove the increased southeast east by constructing a foundation line in the eastern side. The plot can be made into a regular rectangle. If required a slight increase in northeast east can be given by decreasing the south side. Care must be taken to use the area in the left over southeast to be used as garden or small plantations. Don't let area to be used as a road. This can create further problems in northeast road again. The diagonals of the plot should also be measured and care should be taken to increase the northeast to southeast diagonal. When south increase is too steep, the area left over will be very less after corrections. In such cases the plot should be rejected.

First floor similar to ground floor.

I am constructing my first floor quite similar to ground floor. I am sending the detailed drawing for your advice.

S Ramachandra Raju, Uppal.

First of all the ground floor must be corrected so that it will not have any northeast cuts. The portico you are showing projecting on the northern side by creating a northwest north increase this must be brought in line with the northern construction.

The staircase is correct. The entry into the first floor must be brought to the northeast of the hall in the northern direction. The 'Puja' room must have the door in the central portion.

It is incorrect to have an eastern door for the kitchen. For the service purposes this door can be opened in the south of the kitchen. Though the master bedroom is correct, the children bedroom must have the door in the northeast east side.

Though it is good to have all round balcony it is better not to leave the southern balcony totally vacant.

Have even number of pillars

Are there any principles related with the pillars of the house. I am constructing a house for which I would like to have your opinion.

M Gopalachari, Vidyanagar.

There are specific principles to be followed for constructing a house with pillars. The total number of pillars must be even numbered and those numbers should not end with a zero. That means 8,12,14,16 etc. are allowed where as 10, 20, 30 are not allowed. No pillar should be hanging, that means every pillar must have an opposite pillar either in vertical or horizontal directions. The pillars located in the northeast zone must not be round If at all they have to be taken round for elevation purposes, they should be having square or rectangular foundation and square or rectangular ending at the roof level. Incidentally vastu also specifies about the number of beams and types of beams, which are specified to be even numbered as explained in the earlier paragraph about number of pillars. focus will give good results to the house.

Vastu Shastra Tips for House Construction :

First and foremost important point of House Construction of vastu shastra is dig a well in the N-E corner and use this ground water for constrction for quick completion of house construction and prosperity.

Open space should be kept all around the building, that is four sides of the house., it gives us luck to the house and full of lighting, flowing of air.

Open space means more at east, ishan, north than south,west and southwest corners.

Open space at agneya and vayavya should be equal.

One opinion in the minds of the quacks and uneducated people is trees should not be at house and shadow of the tree should not be impression at any part of the house, its totally wrong idea and not correct.Plant trees at all parts of the house(except Ishan), but follow these small hints.Heavy trees at south,west, southwest corners and agneya, vayavya sides.Creepers and small plants at East,North, northeast corners.,better to avoid trees at Ishan corner, if you strongly wish you can develop grass at Ishan corner.

Plenty of Air flowing should be to the house from Ishan,East,North sides, to avail this facility we should provide doors or windows at these sides.

Construction of building at South,West,Southwest sides are highter(higher) than North,East,Northeast sides.

No peace and quarrels at house if there is a well at Agneya,Vayavya and the well is appear at south,west,southwest corners then inmates has to face financial crisis,heavy burdans,health problems, once in a moment deaths are also happen.

There is no question of Vaastu Pooja at house, its a waste of time and money, vastu is science, and its not a diety.

If new (or old) house purchased, first do paints to the house, clean and join & enjoy

If west portion is height than East portion, that plot is auspicious and construct the house without distrubing this natural power i.e., height at west side.

If south portion is height than north portion, that plot is auspicious and construct the house without distrubing this natural power i.e., height at south side.

Actually there should not be 5 corners in a house, but its auspicious if 5th corner is at Ishan side.

Dont provide Doors at Southwest corner, the same forwarded to windows also.

To dig for the foundation, first starts from Ishan corner, then go to East and North, thereafter go to agneya,vayavya, south,west, and last at southwest.

Filling the foundation digs with concrete (pillars) first at southwest corner, later south,west,agneya,vayavya, last at east,north and finally at Ishan corners.

Plan to fix the doors to open inside, not outside, inside opening of the doors is luck to the inmates and it welcomes the natural power or energy.

Flooring heights are should be like this way, north to south, and east to west. Ishan to Southwest corners.

A vastu home has to be aligned with the cardinal directions thereby reflecting the Vedic concept of the universe. Don’t place disturbing works of art such as those depicting war and misery as they may bring about negative energy.

Vaastu Shastra Tips for Doors :

As long as the East, North, West and South doors are perpendicular to each other (according to the campass needle) it is good.

South, North, West and East gate and doors of the building are perpendicular according to the compass needle hence it is good, actually some one says that the west facing and south facing houses are inauspicious, but its totally wrong. All the four facing plots are good. But we have to build the house according to vaastu shastra.The doors of the building are in the South, North, East and West and as the site has a 15 degrees twist (according to the compass needle) the gate and main door placed in the East is shifted to the East in North-East and it is not favourable for the South gate and door to be in the South in South-West. In such cases it is better to have doors and gates in the North-East in East side plots, North-East in North side plots, South-East in South side plots and the North-West in West side plots.

At North facing site the door (Simhadwara or Uttachstana) should be placed at northeast corner, this is the best suitable place, the second and last one is North door, but have to take some suggestions from experienced vastu consultant.

East facing site the door (Simhadwara or Uttachstana)should be placed at northeast corner, this is the best suitable place, the second and last one is East door, but better to have suggestions from experienced vastu consultant.

South facing site the door (Simhadwara or Uttachstana)should be placed at southeast corner, this is the best suitable place, the second and last one is South door, take necessary suggestions from experienced vastu consultants

West facing site the door (Simhadwara or Uttachstana)should be placed at northwest corner, this is the best suitable place, the second and last one is West door, but dont forget to get suggestions from experienced vaastu consultants, this is safe to you, while putting doors at some parts than at uttachastana.

The entrance for a South West room should always be placed in the North-East.

The doors should be in the Northeast. When someone enters through the door, the waves emerging from the doors affect his mind with the magnetic waves always flow around us. If possible some painting or window should be opposite to each door for air flow.

The size and shape of the door is, here vaastu advises that width of the door should be half of the height of the door, its good for the house.

The main entrance door to the house should be made from good quality wood. It's width should be bigger than other doors of the house. It should have a design and should be painted. It should look grand compared with the other doors. The main door is the index of the quality of the good vibrations of the house.

A vastu home has to be aligned with the cardinal directions thereby reflecting the Vedic concept of the universe. While entering into the house don’t place disturbing works of art such as those depicting war and misery as they may bring about negative energy and negative thoughts to the inmates and comers to the house.

The properties of the ucchasthana and Neechasthana doors

East House: Door is at Northeast or East side - Fame and Knowledge

North House: Door is at Northeast or North side - Fortune & wealth.

South House :Door is at Southeast side - Happiness

West House: Door is at Northwest side - Does overall good.

Neechasthana door of East face house is at South-East : Increases chances of bad ways, getting cheated or cheating tendencies in the owner.

South face house neechasthana door is at southwest : Trouble within the household, financials crisis and ill health.

West face house neechasthana door is at sSouthwest: Financial losses, general trouble, increases chances of health and financial troubles in men and renders them total defeats, sudden collapse of firms or system.

North side house neechasthana door is at northwest in North : People moving through this door will not have mental stability and they might fall prey to bad habits, debts, court cases, saint philosophy.

If the main door to the house is stiched in a right place according to vastu shastra then the position of the inmates raisen day by day. Doors are the main and very important in vastu shastra., dont forget this while sitting the doors at house, factory or in any other constructions

Vastu Tips for Dining Room

Vastu for dining room makes sure that the food you are eating will have positive effects on you and your family. There are plenty of things that are required to be considered, while giving the right Vaasthu remedies for dining room like the proper location of dining room, proper placement of dining table, position of electronic gadgets, the direction you are facing while eating food etc.

The ideal location for the construction of dining room is the West or south portion of the house.

If you want to place a fridge (Refrigerator) in the dining room, then southeast direction would be just apt for the same.

Kitchen is the proper place to have your daily meals (in olden days our elders doesnt have dining table or dining room, they are taking food at kitchen only) but never face South while having your meals it creates stomach disorders, indigestion and other related problems.

If you want to make provision for the fitting of washbasin in your dining room, then the right place would be either eastern or northern or northwest corners.

Dining table should not be sticking to the wall. Maximum try for this, or sticking to the wall is must then go for west or south side walls, at any cost dining table should not be stick to the northeast corner or at east or north sides also.

Square or rectangle shape dining table is just perfect for the room, now a days the round tables are flooding the market, there is no problem by putting the round dining table at the dining room.

Construction should be done in such a manner that the dining room and kitchen both are on the same floor, lying adjacent to each other or equalent to same with each other, and one hint here also is that the dining room and kitchen may have small window to exchange the food items, but to do before this has to take suggestion from expert panel vastu consultants.

It is most profitable to have the dining room in the west side of the building. If it is in the east or the north it is tolerably good.

While taking food, the head of the family should sit facing the east. Others should sit facing the east, the west or the north. However, try to nobody should sit facing the south. If it is done, unnecessary quarrels may take place.

Nature portraits and paintings in the dining room makes the atmosphere happy.

East, south or west portion of the house are for the dining rooms. Stimulate your appetite by painting its walls with shades of pink or orange. The dining room can be an independent room or in continuation of the kitchen, no problem, but better to get one suggesion by expert after showing your house to him.

In the old days, food was cooked and served in the kitchen itself. These days, the dining room can be an extension of the kitchen or drawing room. In case the kitchen is located in the South-East, the dining room can be made either in the East or South of the kitchen. If the kitchen is located in North-West, the dining room can be made in the North or West of the kitchen

The family should spend happy times here, talking and relaxing, as well as eating. Talk to your family members softly and sweetly in a pleasant voice. Any talk while eating should never revolve around the short comings of any family member. Do not make the dining room a classroom for your children.

As per the Rushis (saints) voice do this for best results, cultivate the habit of listening to soft subdued music rather than having the television on at dining room. Television kills conversation and these days where parents have work pressures and children have a burden of studies, meal times can be utilized to spend quality time together with the whole family

Create a pleasant environment for the family and friends to eat and enjoy each other’s company. The atmosphere should be intimate and conducive to conversation. To enjoy the feeling of spaciousness do not have too much furniture in this room. The main focus of this room is the dining table itself. The table should be preferably rectangular. Fridge can be kept in the South-East of the dining room

There should not be any attached toilet in the dining room. There is no harm in an attached room used for washing clothes or utensils. Paintings/posters of appetising food can be placed on the walls of the dining room. WOW you know so much about dining room and kitchen from www.subhavaastu.com, can i expect tasteful food from you while I am at your sweet home.

Vastu Shastra Tips for Planting Trees :

Trees, really we don't know the power of these heavenly elements. Yes Trees are nothing but heavenly Elements. Don't cut trees in the name of Vastu Shastra. Trees gives us all power related to our peaceful living. Who plant the trees are nothing but assistants to God. God Love Trees. Trees are very important for living creatures (including Human Beings). If ones house is having plenty of trees he will have peace of mind. The land will cool. If the climate is cool, the bad vastu power decreases. If the atmosphere (land, area, place) is hot the bad vastu power increases its power. So we must take in planting of trees.

Unfortunately in vastu shastra there is one rule (implemented by some half knowledged persons) is flying that if trees shadow is touching the house, that house inmates cannot get prosperity, luck, harmony etc.....This is totally wrong and foolish thing. Now a days Vastu is a cold poison that spreads all over the country. In the name of vastu the trees are going to be vanished. We have to take care of this unlawful mad nature of some bad humans. The vastu consultants who don't have much knowledge on vastu shastra says that "trees shadow should not fallen on house", this is entirely wrong statement. Trees gives us colours, eyes cooling, look, smart, cool, royal touch, peace, cool shadows, particularly security feeling, education, good relations, satisfaction life, money, good name with smart fame, leadership or leadership qualities. To be frank if there is no tree, that is not called as house.

Some half knowledge Vastu consultants expresses that we must plant trees only at West, South, Southwest directions......please go through the below picture.....

As per our Indian vastu shastra we must give more space at north and east than west and south sides. While it is so, the trees needs some spacious space to grow and cover the area. If we don’t have certain space at west and south sides, then how it is possible to plant trees at west and south sides. Its absolutely impossible. Again these people say that we should not plant trees at north and east sides. Well, then where we have to plant trees at our house.

Finally they drag one point that there is no space for planting trees and trees shadow should not be fallen on house. So vastu is the main cause for trees plantation, so many people have much interest in planting trees, but due to vastu shastra we are unable to plant trees. Vastu Shastra curse on Trees. Here we will brake all these principles and maintain feasibility and plantation without braking the. We will see the solution for all these problems.

Is there any salvation for this problem :

Yes there is a solution for this problem. See this image.

Here we planned to give some more space at west and south sides,(observe the west and south side more space and observe the above image) so we have much space for planting trees, and the north and east also not disturbed. Here the house occupied the Nairuthi part and trees are also planted at west and south parts, so we followed their conditions.

Please note that

Trees are the hidden attraction for heavenly elements.

You can observe at some houses, the inmates enjoying their life with full happiness and standard living, those houses may have full of Tree shelters. A house is having with full of trees.... what is the results from it, nothing, the inmates just enjoy their life with full happiness.

In the above image the trees are at south and west directions only, but now see this below picture, here the trees are covered almost all at house, except Ishan or Eshan corner.

Provide space only at Eshan corer and cover all the entire place with trees. Don't trust the words that "trees shadow should not touch to the house". You can cover the house with full of trees, just left some small portion at Ishan side as vacant, this is enough for us. In any case one house is having trees at Eshan corner, no problem just dig one sump at Eshan corner, then the problem will solve. We will discuss it with one image.

If you plant more trees at south side and west side then you will have more benefits, see this below picture, here the south side is full of trees, it gives you more money and good health, financially sound, peace and standard life etc.

In the above image the trees are fully occupied at south side, like wise you can plant number of trees at west side also. It gives inmates a secured life, good health, financially sound etc, enemies power lost, confidence etc.

Treat the trees like your children, they save you definitely. In Sanskrit there is a word on trees "Vrukshadevatha" . If you have any query on planting trees kindly write to me, i will definitely reply to your email, or you can contact me over cell phone: 0 98481 14778 .

Any of your friends or relatives houses, if there is big trees or heavy ( number of) trees, please inform them regarding this link, if they planned to cut trees in the name of vastu shastra, suggest them don't cut trees. If the land is cool then good vastu will work immediately, if the land is hot bad vastu will starts its work. Here is the link of my contact details, at any time i am ready to serve my services for the trees, plants.., love trees, its nothing but Love on God. God bless our planet. Without consulting any vastu expert you can directly plant trees at Agneya and vayavya places.

www.subhavaastu.com requesting Government, please plant trees, to save our planet, environment is most important for us to secure our future. Please pass a rule if any one commits to cut the trees in the name of vastu shastra, and punish them with severe fines or imprisonment or with both. www.subhavaastu.com requesting the Government and Officers please pass a rule that if any person wants to construct a house, he must plant atleast two trees at his house. He must show the space or provide space for plants and without trees don't allow him for construction.

Please note that this link is more developed in coming days, from this link you will get which tree is best for various lands. How to protect trees, Tree types, route causes any damage to houses or bedrock or foundation etc will be published here, kindly pass this link to your friends. If you are Trees lover then participate in developing of this Website. Please inform this web link to your friends. You can contact us for more suggestions. Help our environment by planting trees. ..........Which Tree you are falling down

Observe the below images, how impressed these houses with trees. Trees are the main attraction for Godly Elements. Plant trees at your homes.

Vastu Tips for Cash Box | Currency | Money:

Not for one, but for every one cash box is important, now a days moral things are disappears, only money is occupying in our lives, we are not looking for other needs, we need only money. We can buy any thing with money, but we cannot buy some things in this world, for example, we cannot buy mothers love. Its wonderful gift from God to us. (This matter is from www.subhavaastu.com) We have to earn money for our livelihood but we should not live for money, if we have capability and strength, do hard work, then money will automatically come. Don't go and search for money, it will be with you if you do hard work.Now we are discussing some points on money matters. Very small points.

1. If you are facing problems with debts, then do one thing, dig one sump at North east corner at your compound.

2. Heighten the south side and possible construct pail or dais at south sides.

3. North side lower (depression) can easily gives you money. Extra income will flow to you.

4. North Eshan (Northeast-north) corner street focus will gives you plenty of money. Try for this street focus road houses.

5. Currency chest will be at your house if you get a experts suggestion. For more information visit the house link at home page top right side. There select the appropriate link for your requirement.

6. The currency chest always placed at Southwest corner of the southwest room in a house. So that it gains enormous Eshan corner focus, and money never go out easily. For your understanding here is a picture, please observe the focus of Eshan corner to currency chest.

In the above Picture you can clearly observe the main technique in flowing cash into the cash box, like this way you can do practicals. The Vastu experts suggestions will always brings cheers. If your cash box is having a clear way from Eshan (Northeast) corner, then you can enjoy the currency full in your cash box and bank balances.

Some body may raise some doubts that which is the best regarding cash box hanging to southwest wall or placing the cash box at southwest floor. Simple first check the cash box height and weight, if it is above normal, then place it at southwest floor, if it is not too weight or height then you may hang to wall. Remember weights placing at floor level at southwest part is always good. Hanging is not advisable. If you did not have that much space and particularly you are requiring to hang the Almira or cash box or shelf then you may hang to the wall. We are not objecting and we never come to you house, if it fallen down, and don't blame us. Herewith we are providing some images for your kind understanding purpose. Check the below Almirah images :In this image, the almirah's (Money Box, Iron Safe) placed towards Southwest corner, this resident bought two almiras and kept them at southwest corner. Good. Both are placed on floor only. Here now we are discussing some important logic. The two Almira are in good position. For your understanding purpose one almirah is marked with white patch. This white patch almira is North almirah and the other one is South almirah. If the surroundings vastu is not good towards South direction, then place your money (Cash, Rupees, Dollars) at North almirah, if South is good as per vaastu shastra then place your money in South almirah. South means, the south direction after your house, if there is any apartment at South direction, then keep money in South almirah.

There are lots of tips and techniques in Vaasthu Shastra, we have to find it and logical think requires to get the right key.

Here one resident placed the Almirah towards Southwest direction in his house, don't keep your eyes on back side, that is a small window, its wrong but from outside it was totally closed with strong structure.

This almirah is faced towards East direction. This placement is also good as per vasthu shastra.

Now we are discussing some other methods, now a days the rooms are very small in size and we have to adjust every thing in all ways. If there may not be any space towards southwest part, particularly at floor, then we have to hand the almira at southwest corner wall. Just see the below image.This is also one steel almirah, one resident placed this almirah towards southwest corner, it is not stand on floor, only hanged on the wall. Is there any wrong in this system. No, but it is better to place the Almira on floor is good.

Have a Great Bright Money Day.

Vastu Shastra Tips for Wells | Bores :

Not now a day but in olden days we have Wells at our houses, due to modernization now we are not interested to dig wells, we are accustomed to have the Bores only now. Almost this webpage is somewhat equality to the sump webpage. Most of the qualities are been equal to the sump webpage. See this below pictures we have to dig the wells as shown in the picture.Observe this flash file, here the house is at Nairuthi corner, and the Well with round shape has came into East Eshan corner of the Compound corner, results is: good health, richness, name and fame. There is one red line running from house to compound wall corner, that means we should not construct the well in that place. We have to left that place and construct the well at East Eshan place or North Eshan place.

Here the well came into North Eshan place, this is auspicious for well, and the results is richness, always money flow, good health etc

Please check the directions in all images, otherwise you will be little bit confused.

Now we are looking some wells: -Check the image, the water well or water sump or bore well is suitable at Northeast corner. It is good for happy life. Other parts are not good, but we will check the subject to have some more good positions of wells in our properties. Some areas wells may be in southwest or West or South or Southeast or Northwest portions, those positions are wrong. Please consult one expert vastu consultant and get his advice to correct it.

In my home well is dry, shall I close it, any puja has to be performed to close the well : -

If a well or water sump is to be drilled in the house, pooja must be performed on the commencement of the excavation and Ganga puja on water. Water is treated as a agent of God, our tradition is, respecting the Natural forces or Five elements. Almost in some areas water is treated as God, and you may also found that, several temples are constructed only at the side of river shores or full of water areas. If the well is found to be polluted by dead creatures, the polluted water (as much as possible) should be removed and puja should be performed to cleanse it according to local traditions. What for concentrate on local traditions, for example, if you are living in Rajasthan and we may be in south India, the traditions for closing the well is too different, our traditions and methods may not be accepted by your local pandits or local people. So it is better to take only local people advice on closing the well.

If you did not get any local pandit or any suggestion from the local people then do one simple thing, do some pooja on your favorite god, and offer some sweet, one cocoanut and flowers and cosmetic powers red and yellow and light agarbathis etc, and start close the well after 10 mins.

While closing the well, take some precautions like, never be dug if a women in the family is pregnant, if while commencement of a new construction, a well is found in the plot, but is in the wrong direction, it should be closed/filled and a new well be dug in the direction as suggested according to vastu, it is advisable to excavate the well in the north sector before commencement of construction. Please note one point here, if any well is in wrong position say about South, Southwest, West or Brahmasthan near to Southwest, if you would like to close it, then first start dig one well or sump at North, East, Northeast (Best location) and there after start closing the wrong placed well. We think you understand well.Some wells are dangerous. Close them first, in some areas, the house land area is very big, in those areas they have unclosed wells, please close them first, otherwise it will taken lives. If you are not using wells, then

close them with some proper puja as given here under, if those wells are not used for consuming water purpose etc, then close them without any pooja etc.

Some areas the wells are well used. If there is sufficient water in those wells, then don't close them.

Check the height of the well wall, it is must, otherwise it may be danger to kids. In olden days we used these wells for our daily water requirements, new generations may not know about these wells. Those days we don't have deceases, because of this fresh generated water from ground. Good for health.

Some areas water is for human consumption and it is said to be drinking water, some areas we never get this drinking water, those water may be used for bath, washing, cleaning etc.

Now see the well diagram, it may gives you some pleasure.This is the only model of well for our regular drinking usage.

What is your doubt, ask us we will try to provide you the best answer. Thanks.

Vastu Shastra for Living Room

A living room, also known as sitting room (especially in the UK), lounge room or lounge (in the United Kingdom and Australia), Hall (especially in India)is a room for entertaining guests, reading the books, watching TV or other activities. The word Lounge is from the Latin, it was brought over later on by the French. In modern homes and apartments the living room has replaced the old fashioned parlor. In the 19th century, the parlor was the room in the house where the recently deceased were laid out before their funeral. This became the more affirmative term "living room" in the 20th century. The term marks the twentieth-century effort of architects and builders to strip the parlor of its burial and mourning associations. A typical western living room will be furnished with a sofa, chairs, occasional tables, a television or stereo equipment, bookshelves, as well as other pieces of furniture. Traditionally a sitting room in the United Kingdom would have a fireplace. In Japan people traditionally sat on tatami instead of chairs but western style decor is also common these days. In the United States, sometimes the living room is reserved for more formal and quiet entertaining while a separate recreation room or family room is used for more casual activities. In Australia, the living room is more often referred to as "the lounge" and is used for both formal and casual entertaining, although casual entertaining also takes place in the backyard. The term front room can also used to describe a living room, because in many homes the front door opens into the living room.

Rooms And Their Positions

Which room should be constructed in which direction, if this consideration is not kept in mind while planning a house, the whole building may go against the principles of and it will create lot of troubles causing harms and loss to the owner/inmates. People are generally ignoring this fact and are constructing house according to their choice. Architects now a days prepare house-plans without considering the principles and rules given by ancient Vaastu-Shastra. They keep in mind the latest designs, imitating the designs based on foreign culture but if the basic principles of Vaastu satisfying the five basic materials (Panch Mahabhutas) are ignored, the house becomes the root cause or troubles, losses and sorrows in the life of the inmates.

For example, it has become a fashion these days to construct kitchen near the main gate. Reason for doing so is given that for most of the time a housewife has to remain in the kitchen and it becomes easy to her to keep a watch on the main door, and that she can conveniently attend to any body calling at the door. How strange and any visitor or guest should be received and entertained by the head of the family and the guest room/drawing room should be near the main door. Visitors come from all the classes of society and have to be treated in different ways depending upon their status.

Indian Vaastu Shastra divides the house into 16 parts wherein rooms or various purpose should be constructed, keeping the directions in mind as follows: -

Direction Room to be constructed.

�

East Bathroom

�

South-east Kitchen

�

South Bed room

�

�

Between West and North-west Punishment room for expressing sympathy or sorrow.

Besides these, there are other opinions also :

�

In South -West corner Clothes Room (Wardrobe)

�

�

As far as possible, various rooms should be oriented in the house as per directions given in Vaastu-Sastra. Some of the rooms, such as room for churning curd, store for ghee, room for expressing sorrow, etc. may not be necessary in modern times. These may be utilised for other purposes, In case of shortage of space position of the rooms may be adjusted as per convenience and necessity. But there are some rooms which must be kept in the position suggested in Vaastu-shastra. If these are built in some other prohibited space, it will prove inauspicious and harmful for the inmates.

In modern times it is not feasible to build big houses having large number of rooms as mentioned in Vaastu Sastra. Houses are built on small plots which can not accommodate many rooms. Therefore it is advised to construct the house in accordance with the principles of Vaastu, in abridged form having rooms as per necessity and convenience.

Cash box or safe (almirah) should be placed in this room along the south wall, such that it opens towards the north and the man while opening it faces towards south.

8. Pooja Room: - North-east corner is governed by Eeshwar; Pooja room should be built in this corner. This corner should not be used for bed room, kitchen or any other room, and no other articles should be placed in the pooja room. Cleanliness must be maintained around it. One should sit facing north or east while worshipping. Idols or pictures of the deities should be placed on a high platform built on four legs (sinhasan) or a cup-board in the wall in the north or east side

There should not be any toilet or kitchen above, below or adjacent to the pooja room.

Light (Electricity)

While constructing a room it should be kept in mind that every room gets proper light. Electricity is the main source of energy these days. Main switch board and meter etc. should be fixed in the south-east portion of the building. In every room, switch board should be provided on the right hand side (While entering). It is not auspicious to provide switch board on the left or centre of the wall.

A building or temple where sun rays and fresh air do not reach is not auspicious and beneficial. As far as possible each room in the house should be so planned that it receives proper sun rays and maintains proper flow or air. In modern times, many huge buildings are built such that not only the sun is not visible from inside but it does not receive even traces of sun light. Flies, mosquitoes, germs may, of course, enter it without any check. Electric lighting has replaced sun light and fans, coolers etc. are used to maintain flow of air artificially. The un-natural arrangement is harmful to health and produces adverse effects on the eyes, lungs and heart. Soon the inmates have to suffer from respiratory troubles and diseases or eyes. They have to consult the doctors again and again, and have to take medicines regularly and use spectacles.

Therefore it is necessary to keep the importance of proper circulation of air and light in mind for the healthy and long life of the inmates and the house itself. There are traditions in our country of worshipping the rising sun. Ancient scriptures have mentioned methods of curing several diseases, like anaemia, impurity of blood, dyspepsia, etc. with the help of sun rays and passing the sun rays through water filled in glass bottles of different colours. Exposure of the body to mild sun rays also cures many diseases. Modern architects generally ignore this fact in an attempt to earn more money by utilising maximum space. Sunlight and natural air are very much necessary for the durability of the house and health of the inmates. This should be kept in mind. Proper ventilation and exhaust fans must be provided in proper directions.
