1. Vastu depicts the advantages and disadvantages involved in construction of structures.
2. Vastu Shastra essentially reveals the art of the correct placement of all its structures and its components in a building structure.
The application of Vastu from old days upto modern period and its universal nature, observing carefully and cautiously all the elevations, depressions, topography, squaring and angling in accordance with its principles enhances our Health, Wealth and Prosperity.
Constructions with Improper Vastu Principles and their effects:
3. Many so called rich people, living in fabulous mansions may not be truly rich and happy. But a person on daily wages living in a small house may be truly rich and happy. The cause may be attributed to the application of Vastu.
4. Quarrels among the family members, JUDICIAL problems, rivalry between the business partners are attributed to the defects in the application of Vastu Shastra.
5. Financial problems like debts, poor savings and extravagant expenditure are caused by the defects of Vastu.
6. Defects in Vastu Shastra lead to many problems and upsets in business, disturbing the very basic set up itself and ultimately resulting in regular losses and finally frequent changes in profession.
7. Frequently an industry, observing all the Vastu Principles with less facilities, resources and lack of experience may be flourishing profitably, but the case may not be the same with another industry though provided with all facilities, resources, skilled and experienced persons.
8. Legal problems, Industrial disputes, Labour problems, Low Production failing to START the industry, and if started, frequent breakdowns, failing to reap a good fruit for their labour are all due to improper applications of Vastu.
9. In certain cases, once a profitably running industry when takes over another industry will lead to the path of losses. No doubt, Vastu holds on this.
Just as we cautiously supervise over our health, food habits and others, thus protecting out body from all ill health, in the same way we have to take the helping hand of Vastu Shastra which saves us from all sorts of upheavals, thus granting us all round happiness and prosperity. A site satisfying the Vastu Principles ensures Peace and Prosperity, making a SWEET HOME. Vastu effects both the owner and the tenant.
1. Bad effects if Street focus, Road absorption and Road hit, defects of North West go a long way in affecting us. But this can be balanced by Vastu Principles.
2. If North East is according to Shastra, Prosperity prevails.
3. Over Head Water Tanks in the South West is advantageous, though in few cases, that on North West or South East is acceptable. But that on North East is not acceptable.
4. Constructing a Kitchen in East South is favourable. Though in some cases this can also be in South West direction and North West direction, but never in North East or in the room in North Easterly directions.
5. Twisting the pillars while construction to North East direction involves many defects due to the projection of edges. This only enhances the defects of the structure ultimately resulting in the clashing of the projected parts with the neighbouring projections.
6. Main Entrance of any Site, Industry Floor or any type of structure also play an important role in Vastu.
Thus PEACE, PROPERITY, HEALTH and NATURE of the inhabitant and his family members will develop only by observing and adopting the principles of Vastu in placing Steps, Roofs, Verandahs, Machinery, Industrial Sheds, Insulation, Underground and Overhead Tanks, Boilers, Generators, Wells, Cooling-Towers, Outhouses, Flooring both interiors and exterior, Drainage tanks, Lines, Cooking Furnace, Border walls, Heights and thickness, Bedrooms sleeping postures and placement of Sitting Chambers all play an effective role.
