Gomti chakra, a small natural wheel (chakra) first found in the Gomti river, is presented as a brahmastra of remedial vastu. Once purified and energised it can remove vastu doshas and planetary troubles, recover stuck money, create marriage yogas and speed up business like a fast-spinning wheel.

After strong negative entities (bhoot-pret) are removed from a place, it is sealed with a protective grid of solid mercury keels (nails) in the four directions and four corners, so the removed energy cannot return.

Such land can be corrected through Vastu too: special dhoop and samagri for removing bhoot-pret badha are taught later in the course.
It indicates negative energy at that place. Dowsers and highly sensitive persons feel such energy much more strongly, and your body was able to sense it; talking about it connects you to it again. The teacher has had similar reactions at sites, once with his whole body going limp, red and sweating and with severe loose motions.
Protection methods are taught in later classes. Even with protection, very strong negative energy will make the body react while you are there, just as wind touches you whatever shield you make, but with a protective shield (suraksha kavach) it cannot do more than that reaction.
A daily bath in water in which a potli of the herbs of the nine planets has been dipped; tirth darshan during every eclipse and during vyatipat yoga; using swar in every daily activity from waking to sleeping; and daily abhishek of the consecrated deity, applying the dust of the feet of the deity on the forehead and sprinkling the abhishek water in the house above navel height.

A South door is called the door of Yama: demonic (rakshasi) tendencies enter through it, and at night they are said to make the food impure. Either close that door or energise it with the door power treatment taught later in the treatment classes. When designing, never give a kitchen a South-facing door, since fire into fire can cause a fire.
When the thresholds of thousand-year-old temples, forts and palaces were lifted, silver coins and pancha ratna were found beneath them. The dehleez itself stops negative surface currents and tantric attacks from crossing into the house; silver stops negative energy from entering and cancels the ill-effects of the door, and the pancha ratna make positive energy flow through the dehleez and multiply on every festival as it enters the house. Roots of certain plants, such as black dhatura, were also placed in the dehleez so that no ghost or evil obstruction could enter.
Fix it outside the door. Hang it in a U shape, exactly the way the English letter U is written, with the open end upward.
Yes, it must be higher than the floor; only then can it stop the energy. It should be made of wood in particular.
