Mixing a handful to about a kilo of a chosen soil into the flooring raises the energy for a purpose: cowshed, mountain or elephant-stable soil for peace, yellow soil for business, white or yellow soil for homes, and pilgrimage or river soil for temples.
A painting of Om forms placed on the eight petals of a lotus (four directions and four vidishas), with the ancient Om at the top; it distributes the energy of Om in all eight directions.
Stairs stand for business, intellect and wealth, so a strong, beautifully designed staircase with wood, glass, green leaves and flowers multiplies wealth, while shaky or broken stairs sink money.
When land energy is weak it can be raised through mantra, yantra, pyramids, gems and minerals, soil sanskar, garbh vinyas and petrology methods. Raising the land energy alone has restarted factories that had not run for years, even with a tall structure wrongly placed in the Ishaan.
Royal interiors such as the Mysore Palace marked a brahma nabhi (navel) at the centre of the floor and hung chandeliers of sphatik (crystal) to raise the energy of the Brahmasthan, with colours chosen from the ruler's element and planets.
Planets cannot be pulled down, but placing the metal, wood, colours and items representing the planet exalted in your kundli at that planet's own location in the house captures its energy.
The symbol of the space element is a circle, so a circular mandna is made at the Brahmasthan; it virtually opens the Brahmasthan and gives it power, the way a virtual door is opened.
The Moon (white) and Jupiter (golden yellow) together form the Gaj Kesari yoga; an interior with white walls and golden yellow carvings recreates this yoga in the home.
The acharyas advise placing diamond in the ground of the South-East to increase its power. Where the floor is already built, as in a flat, a swastik drawn with inexpensive diamond chip powder in the South-East serves the same purpose.
Quartz balls capture and generate energy and raise the energy of a zone; each direction takes its own colour, and a ball should be at least 3 inches in diameter.
Door power means installing the dehleez, the base wood of the four-piece door frame, in a proper muhurta and swar with protective samagri placed in the ground beneath it. Done this way it removes about 50 percent of the dosh even of a wrongly placed door.
Havan ahutis of dried chameli (jasmine) and mogra flowers at the Mahendra pad spread their fragrance through the house and activate Mahendra devta.
Design the main door like a face: two shutters as the nostrils, two small niches as the eyes, two jharokhas as the ears, an Om or swastik as the tilak, and the threshold and upper frame as the lips. Ancient texts say such decoration multiplies the power of the main door many times.
Flowering plants in the North strengthen Mercury and make business shine; factories with flowering plants in the North are seen to run well.
Gomti chakra are laid as a circle in the brahm nabhi, as a square in a chabutra and as a full line in the dehleez, and are used in every kind of door power. Each one must be laid with its smooth white face up.
Do not build a temple in the kitchen; keep a small Mangal kalash at the agneya kon with a small photo of your Guru or ishta, and draw a swastik in front of your eyes so the food cooked becomes like amrit.
Ivory, a very light yellow, represents the earth element, which is why ivory floor tiles are the most preferred and generate the most energy in a house.
A message painting designed by the teacher: a kalash is established in the ishaan corner, the sun rises behind it, the lotus blooms and energy spreads, raising positive energy in the whole house. It is painted on a glass partition between North and East, or on cloth.
A house that needs more money, respect and status should burn fire in the South-East; the more fire burns there, the more the money grows.
Grow a lotus in water in a small kund or an earthen pot at the Mahendra pad; a lotus that grows, blooms fully and spreads fragrance shows Mahendra is active.
When a plot's North-South axis is short, the magnetic field is increased by planning every room long in the North-South direction or, failing that, by placing heavy magnets and hematite mineral on the North-South axis.
N4, E3 and W4 are the Mahalakshmi doors through which Lakshmi enters; a house with all three open sees a heavy flow of money and many sources of income.
After Om and swastik the kalash is the greatest symbol and is established before every beginning (wedding, business start, construction, any of the 16 sanskar). A filled mangal kalash with a coconut in the North-East of every home, factory and office forms Gajkesari yoga and balances the five elements.
A glass painting with a dotted board carrying a mantra (Navkar for Jains, Gayatri for Vaishnavs), tablas whose sound strikes the mantra and spreads it through the room, an ashtadhatu bell ringing above, and the symbol of the three lok with a blooming lotus.
A mirror false ceiling at the centre point of the Brahmasthan makes the space open to the sky and balances the space element when a real open-to-sky courtyard cannot be built.
A mirror on the ceiling of the Brahmasthan is very good because it makes the ceiling open to the sky; this is why old chandeliers (jhoomar) had mirror bases.
Mark Om and swastik on the main door, write the name of your isht (chosen deity) and add auspicious symbols such as kalash and darpan. Do it in a good muhurta such as Basant Panchami or after the Sun turns Uttarayan.
Each of the 32 devtas of the outer band has its own tree. Planting that tree at the devta's place, on the pishach bhoomi or along the boundary wall, makes the lokpal stable; it connects with cosmic energy and feeds energy to the pishach, manushya, dev and brahm bhoomi.
Where the floor is already laid, plenty of quartz soaked in water in a glass bowl charges the water, which is then used to mop the office.
A havan of red flowers of every kind with red sandalwood (lal chandan) at the Surya pad activates Surya devta.
