Red Potlis of Yellow Mustard for Protection on Vastu Visits
Every vastu consultant should carry small red cloth pouches of energised yellow mustard, because a client calls only when negative energy is present and it can come home in the consultant's bag. Potlis are also kept in the drawing room and under beds, and given to clients.
Vastu Devtaमहेंद्र देवता
Mahendra Devta (E4, 73.125 to 84.375 Degrees): Profile, Samagri and Remedies
Mahendra (Indra), the fourth devta of the East, is the king, sustainer and administrator who brings the energy of the planets, Sun, Moon and 27 nakshatras to earth and spreads it evenly through the house. It gives control over the mind and senses, right decisions, government support, contacts, name and fame.
Principleब्रह्म भूमि
Brahm Bhoomi: Courtyard, Tulsi, Open Sky, Living, Yoga and Meditation
The brahm bhoomi at the centre suits a courtyard (aangan), tulsi worship, an area open to the sky, a living area and a place for yoga or meditation.
Principle
What to Build at Shikhi (E1): Rooms Allowed, No Door, Kitchen or Toilet
Drawing room, office, puja room, conference room, underground water tank, borewell and a bedroom for elders suit the Shikhi pad. A main door, kitchen or toilet here harms the residents.
Principle
Room Use at Mahendra (E4): Office, Main Door and the Toilet Danger
E4 suits an administration chamber, office, main door, drawing room, study and bedroom and gives both wealth and peace; a toilet here brings defamation, loss of wealth and disease.
Principle
Whose Kundli to Use: Owner for Facing, Each Member for Their Own Room
The house facing, main door and common areas are chosen from the grih swami's (owner's) kundli, while each member's bedroom and study are planned from that member's own kundli.
Principle
East-South-East Zone (Churning and Analysis): What to Build and Avoid
From 7:30 to 9 am the Sun sits in ESE and its rays churn (manthan), making it the zone of analysis, also called the anxiety zone. It suits wash areas, septic tanks, guest rooms, lifts and rooms of small children or research scholars, but not adult bedrooms, tijori or business counters.
Principle
North-North-East Zone (Health and Immunity): What to Build and Avoid
The Sun's light arrives about 48 minutes before sunrise in NNE and NE, carrying the most vitamin D, B12 and Ayurvedic energy, so NNE is the zone of health and immunity. It suits rooms for the elderly and the sick, medicines, water and open space; only toilets and fire are forbidden.
Principle
South-East Zone (Cash Flow): Kitchen, Fire Uses and Avoidances
SE is pure Agneya: from 9 am to 12 noon the young Sun's fire is strong enough to cook food, so this is the ideal kitchen zone and the zone of cash flow. Water, mirrors and money storage go wrong here.
Principle
South-South-West Zone (Expenditure and Wastage): Toilet and Waste Zone
In SSW the Sun's energy is burnt out and its composition destroyed, so this is the zone of expenditure and wastage, where waste activities belong. It is the main zone for a toilet, dustbin and storage of useless goods.
Principle
South-West Zone (Relationship and Stability): What to Build and Avoid
From about 4 to 4:30 pm the Sun reaches SW and the energy begins to cool and stabilise the mind; it strengthens relationships and skills, motivates hard work and gives stability to every work. It suits bedroom, drawing room, tijori and heavy items, subject to Rahu-Ketu checks.
Principle
West Zone (Varun, Gain and Profit): What to Build and Avoid
West is pure and sacred: goddesses live here, it is Shani's place, and Varun devta, the wealthiest devta, resides here with Pushpadant, so it is the zone of gain and profit. It suits bedrooms, tijori, temple and overhead tank, but must never be dug, dirtied or kept low.
Principle
West-South-West Zone (Education): What to Build and Avoid
From 4:30 pm until sunset the Sun's rays turn cool and soothe the brain's neurons and glial cells, so WSW is the education zone and is very good for studying children. Most activities are allowed, but no fire, toilet or main door.
Principle
Family Photos and Portraits: Full Bodies, Smiling, Faces Towards North
Never hang photos or paintings in which hands, feet or heads are cut off. Hang family photos with smiling faces on the South wall, with the faces looking towards the North.
Principle
Drawing Room Effects in Each of the 16 Zones
East is the ideal drawing room zone, North suits business talks and the NE gives peace, while the SE, SSW and WNW are poor; a room energised with crystallised quartz can work almost anywhere.
Principle
Drawing Room Interior: Rectangular Seating, North Facing, Light Colours
The drawing room is the place for exchanging ideas, so its furniture is set in a square or rectangle, the person putting forward his views faces North, the colours are light and windows give cross-ventilation.
Principle
False Ceiling Materials: Wood Best; Fibre, Metal, Fabric and PVC Avoided
A solid wooden false ceiling without gaps is the best; a glass ceiling is acceptable if fully sealed, while fibre, steel or other metal, synthetic fabric and PVC ceilings disturb energy.
Principle
Furniture Shape and Arrangement by Zone Element
Furniture gives the best results when it is made of good wood, upholstered in cloth and arranged in the shape of the element of its zone.
Principle
Marble Flooring: Best for Temples, Limited Use at Home
Marble is pure calcium carbonate that absorbs all the energy around it, which makes it ideal for temples but unsuitable for an entire home.
Principle
POP False Ceiling: Hollow Gaps Store Negativity, Dust and Bacteria
POP (plaster of Paris with gypsum and adhesive) false ceilings leave hollow gaps that collect dust and negativity and retain moisture and bacteria, so they are best avoided.
Principle
Ancestor (Pitru) Photos Face South, Never in Bedroom or Drawing Room
Photos of departed family members (with garlands) should face South, the direction of Yama; they can hang in the South, SW, SSW or WSW zone, but never in a bedroom or drawing room.
Questions and answers
Why do an underground water tank, drawing room, puja room and conference room suit Shikhi (E1)?
When Adi Prabhu (Shiva) did sadhana on Kailash, the friction produced heat that began to melt the mountain, so water matters most for cooling this place; Shikhi's energy stored with water also spreads through the house and keeps removing about 50% of its vastu doshas. In the drawing room the family sits as if in sadhana and makes its plans and policies, and in a conference room others are convinced with one's ideas and vision and given targets. Worship of Adi Prabhu (Shiva) in a puja room here raises the energy further; an office and a borewell also suit this pad.
If one family member has a planet exalted and another has it debilitated, should that planet's items be kept in the interior?
Decide room by room. In your own bedroom use the materials of your exalted planet and not of your debilitated one; your daughter's bedroom is designed from her kundli. The house facing and common areas such as the drawing room and kitchen are decided from the grih swami's kundli. Many people make the master bedroom in the South-West by default, which is wrong when Rahu is debilitated: such people suffered there and got very good results after moving to another direction.
Why is a drawing room in the South-East considered bad?
The SE suits the kitchen, where fire is needed just as a roti needs fire to cook. In a drawing room we do not want heat or aggravated pitta while putting our views across; in the SE pitta and heat rise, bringing anger, irritation and an aggressive tone, so it is advised against.
Should a heavy sofa be kept in the North of the drawing room?
No. As the human-body model shows, the North must stay light so that the magnetic current can flow out from the North to the South; making it heavy weakens this magnetic flow.
Can a person whose Sun is debilitated (neech) have the drawing room in the East?
Yes, with remedies; he will not leave the East unused or build a toilet there. A drawing room is not a permanent seat. Only permanent seating, such as an 8-hour business seat, should not be chosen in the zone of a debilitated planet.
Can quartz be kept in the drawing room?
Yes. Quartz and pyramids can be used in all directions and all zones except the bathroom, which needs no extra energy.
TVs come only in black nowadays. What should be done?
Let it be and install the TV; nothing can be done about it and it will make no difference.
Flats are small and a half-moon sofa set does not fit in the North. Can a rectangular arrangement be used?
Yes. A rectangular arrangement can go anywhere, because the earth element is present everywhere.
