Remedies, methods and rules
Principle
Sleep with the Head to the South, Never with the Feet to the South
The human body has its own poles, with the head as its north pole and the feet as its south pole. With the head to the South, the poles of body and earth lie opposite and attract; with like poles together they repel, and sleep does not come.
Principleदेव भूमि
Dev Bhoomi: Puja Room, Safe, Study, Meditation and Important Documents
The dev bhoomi, the third band inward, can take everything the household needs, from the main door, windows and kitchen to bedrooms, dining, puja room and stairs. It is the best place for the puja room, the safe, a study room, a meditation room and all important documents, because this land is covered with divine qualities and makes work succeed.
Principle
No Tijori, Bed, Important Papers or Deity on the Pishach Bhoomi
Nothing valuable or sacred should sit on the pishach bhoomi: never a tijori, court case or other important papers, a child's study table, a bed set directly against the wall, or a deity and home temple. Leaving even a 2 to 3 inch gap from the wall keeps an item off the pishach band.
Principle
South Zone: Rest, Deep Sleep and Growth of Name and Work
Magnetic field lines run from North to South, so the magnetic effect is strongest and most stabilising in the South, which makes it the zone for rest and sleep. Deep sleep makes the day go well, earns respect and increases name and work.
Principle
Zone Suitability Depends on the Horoscope of Each Person
No zone suits everyone: a South-West bedroom, a West-South-West study, a bed in the West, or a South-facing seat or door can harm a person whose planet ruling that zone is debilitated.
Principle
Basement Use Rules: No Sleeping, Kitchen, Toilet, Patient or Locker
A basement without sunlight should not be used for sleeping or staying, a kitchen, a toilet, a patient or a locker; its entry should come from the North or East and its walls should be white.
Principleअति मर्म स्थल
Ati Marma: Nine Vital Points of the Plot That Must Stay Free
Ati marma are the nine most sensitive points of the Vastu grid, formed where six devta-to-devta lines cross. In a regular, proportionate plot almost all of them fall in the Brahmasthan, and any piercing, load or dirt on them blocks the energy of the whole plot and brings severe, lasting trouble, above all to the owner (griha swami).
Principle
Flats: Zoning, Devtas and Ati Marma Apply, Bhoomi Vibhajan Does Not
Everything taught for map marking applies to a flat except bhoomi vibhajan, because the open margins left around the building already form its Pishach bhoomi. Zoning, directions, devta marking and the ati marma are still done inside the flat.
Principle
South Zone (Yam, Rest and Fame): Ideal Bedroom and Avoidances
South belongs to Yam Maharaj, who gives rest, relaxation, name and fame; it is the ideal location for the bedroom. The South must be raised, closed and heavy so that the fierce fire energy arriving there is blocked.
Principle
Bedroom Rules: What to Avoid and Where Heavy Furniture Goes
Keep heavy furniture and cupboards in the South, West or SW of the bedroom, and avoid sleeping under beams or tanks, near electronics, facing mirrors or over clutter.
Principle
Sleeping Direction: Feet Towards North, Never South
If the sleeping zone cannot be changed, changing the direction of the feet gives about 50 percent of the benefit. Feet towards North is best, West is second, East only for children and early risers, and South never.
Principle
Study Room Layout: Door, Cross Ventilation, Slope and a Level Study Table
A study room needs its door in the NE, East, North or West, cross-ventilation, a correct slope, a perfectly level study table and bookshelves on a North or East-facing wall.
Principle
Choosing Wood for Furniture and Beds: Teak, Sandalwood, Sal and Asan
Teak is the best furniture wood, ideally with a little sandalwood mixed in and joined with wooden pegs or copper or brass nails. Asan wood drives away negativity and disease, while tendu must never be used and mango must never be used for a bed.
Principle
Sleep Belongs to Saturn: Why the Bedroom Suits the South-West or South
Sleep is an activity of Saturn; Saturn is a friend of Rahu-Ketu, who rule the South-West, and the South is the seat of Yama, so sleeping in the South-West or South is recommended, while sleeping in the East is not.
Questions and answers
All 14 questionsWhy is a dying person laid with the feet toward the South?
So that life leaves the body quickly without getting stuck, because of the magnetic poles of the earth and the body. For the same reason a living person should never sleep with the feet toward the South; keep the head to the South instead.
What if an ati marma falls under a wall, column, bed or sofa, for example in the dining area?
In any room of any house, kothi or flat, a wall on an ati marma is not good, a column is very bad and a bed is even worse. A sofa also has an effect, but it is not much of a problem unless someone sits on that very spot for long hours every day.
A young woman has been in a coma for months and scans show nothing. Can any remedy help?
The case looks very difficult, but give a command and spread a full layer of energised yellow mustard under her, together with gomti chakra, and simply carry on with this remedy.
How can yellow mustard help a couple heading for divorce who have lived apart for over a year?
Write both names on gomti chakra, at least five of them, and put them with about 125 g of energised yellow mustard in a potli. Whoever wants the relationship keeps it under their mattress and every day gives the command that the partner has come back and is on the bed. This brings back friendly behaviour.
A consultant had 2.5 kg of yellow mustard kept under a bed in the South-West; a year later dowsing showed strong negativity and there were daily quarrels. Can yellow mustard create negativity?
Yellow mustard that was washed, energised and commanded cannot give negativity. Mustard simply bought from the market and placed without purification and command does not work, even a ton of it in a shop, and it may bring negativity from wherever it came. Incomplete knowledge is very dangerous.
Is it true that one should not sleep near electric switches?
Yes. The more electromagnetic current there is near you, the more it affects the nadis, the body and blood circulation, so keep the bed well away from switch boards. The minimum distance is transcribed as 35 feet, which may be 3 to 5 feet; check the class recording.
Why should one not sleep with the feet towards the main door?
Energy keeps entering through the main door every moment, and at night spirits, devas and angels also move about and enter the house; if they find feet pointing at them they take it as disrespect, as if being kicked, and the sleeper suffers ill effects. The rule dates from when large families made some children sleep in the main door hall. For the same reason never point the feet towards the temple or God, a cow, religious books or the tijori where Lakshmi resides.
What should be done if the TV is in front of the bed?
Cover the TV while sleeping, for example by putting a cloth or curtain over it. Electronic items should not be close around the bed in any case, as their electromagnetic currents make a person ill.
What should be done if the overhead tank is directly above the bed?
Paste a thin layer of muscovite (mica) on the ceiling, or give the room a wooden ceiling. Sleeping under an overhead tank generates hydro currents that raise the risk of heart problems.
Can one study sitting on the bed?
No. The atoms of the bed bring laziness, so always study at a table.
Ashopalav leaves look like mango leaves and are widely used in bandhanwars in Rajasthan. Can they be used instead?
No. What counts is composition and quality, not appearance; ashopalav leaves have a different composition, so they do not carry the properties of mango leaves. Mango leaves have many special qualities: their juice is used for purifying land, and where marriage is not happening or auspicious functions keep failing, mango leaf juice is applied as a lepan beneath the place where the girl or boy sleeps, after which the auspicious events take place.
Should the sandalwood be kept under the bed or inside it?
Use sandalwood (not silver) and keep it in the bed, under the mattress, so that it touches the wood of the bed.
