Remedies, methods and rules
Remedyगोमती चक्र स्वस्तिक
Brass Gomti Chakra Swastik Plate for a Door in SSW, WSW or East
A swastik made of gomti chakra on a 5 x 5 inch brass plate is fixed on both sides of a door in the South-South-West, West-South-West or East. It corrects the door defect without demolition and also works when those zones have another defect or are low-lying.
Remedy
Gomti Chakra Under the Mattress or Pillow for Intellect and Sound Sleep
Gomti chakra spread under the mattress, or kept under a child's pillow, sharpens the mind and prevents bad dreams. It also gives restful sleep to people who have to sleep in a wrong zone such as the South-South-West or West-North-West.
Remedy
Desi Cow Dung Lepan Under the Bed When Sleeping in a Wrong Zone
When troubles persist and the bed stands in a wrong zone such as SSW or WNW, plaster the floor under the bed with desi cow dung and sleep there; the teacher guarantees good results from ten years of trials.
Remedyचबूतरा
Geo Vastu Chabutra in the South-West Corner to Balance the Whole House
A solid cube-shaped platform (chabutra) built in the South-West corner balances the earth element and Rahu-Ketu, which in turn balances the entire house.
Remedy
Mountain Scenery for a Low South or West
When the North and East are raised and the South and West cannot be made higher, a picture of a mountain peak such as Everest in the low-lying South or West zone changes the mind through the image and brings opportunities.
Remedy
Nandi on a South-West Chabutra Facing North for Stability
Where business is not running well and there is no stability, build a chabutra (platform) in the SW or SSW and install Nandi on it facing North; Nandi represents the earth element and coordination.
Remedy
Special Swastik Earth Mandna for Instability (SW, SSW, WSW up to West)
A special earth element mandna with a swastik is used in industries and homes where there is no stability at all; it is placed in the South-West, SSW or WSW and may go up to the West.
Remedy
Two Brass Elephants with Raised Trunks for South and South-West Entrances
The elephant represents Rahu, whose zones run from South to South-West (SSW, SW, WSW). In south-facing or nairitya-facing houses with the entry there, two brass elephants with raised trunks pacify the door dosh.
Testing
Coconut Throw Test for the Gravitational Pull of a Land
A coconut thrown up on a land falls towards the direction of its strongest gravitational force; falling in an auspicious direction shows good energy, falling towards the South-South-West, West or South shows bad energy.
Principle
South-South-West Zone: Weak Energy, the Place for Dustbin, Garbage and Toilet
In the South-South-West the scorching sun destroys vitamins and minerals, and the gravitational force, balanced in the South, becomes imbalanced 22.5 degrees further, so the energy here is poor. This zone is used for the dustbin, garbage and toilet.
Principle
Sleeping or Sitting in the South-West Depends on Rahu in the Chart
In astro vastu any person can be placed in any zone according to the birth chart. Even the South-South-West suits a person whose Rahu is exalted, but a person with debilitated Rahu should not sleep, sit or run a business in the South-West.
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
Toilet Placement Across Zones: Preferred, Conditional and Forbidden
Vedic vastu never put toilets inside the house; today they go where positive energy ends. SSW is the main toilet zone, WNW and a well-ventilated NW are acceptable, ESE only in an emergency with a south-facing seat, and a toilet in any energy zone such as the NE brings serious harm.
Principle
Placement of Ancestor and Family Photos
Photos of departed ancestors go in the South-West, but never inside a bedroom; family photos of the living go anywhere except the South and SSW zones, on a wall where their faces look North.
Principle
Placement of TV, Washing Machine, Inverter, Meter, AC, Cooler and Dustbin
Appliances that run on electricity represent the fire element, so the washing machine, inverter, electric meter, AC and cooler go in the SE, ESE, SSE or NW, while the TV goes where viewers face North.
Principle
Toilet Effects in Each of the 16 Zones
Zone-by-zone results of a toilet: SSW and WNW are workable, NW and ESE only in an emergency, and every other zone damages what that zone governs.
Principleदक्षिण दिशा के द्वार पद
South Door Padas and Their Results (S4 the Only Good One)
In the South only S4 (Grihakshat) gives happiness, peace, prosperity and business profit. S2, S3, S5, S6, S7 (the debt door) and S8 bring lack of children, servitude, suffering, selfishness, debt and disease.
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.
Principle
No Mirror-Polish Floor Tiles from South to West or in the Brahmasthan
A mirror deepens the surface it is on: on a wall it makes the space look extended, on the floor it creates a pit. Highly reflective tiles, marble or stone must not be used in the South to West zones or the Brahmasthan.
Questions and answers
Which planet is behind a South-South-West entrance?
If Rahu is bad, you will automatically get an SSW entrance. It has to be closed.
Is there a proper place to keep folding steel stairs (a ladder) in the house?
Yes, keep them in the South-South-West, South-West or South.
Can red kota stone be used for stairs in the South-South-West?
It is better not to use red kota stone for stairs in the South-South-West. For South-South-West and South-West stairs use yellow stone or Dholpur stone, which balances that zone and multiplies its energy.
Where should family photos be put?
Anywhere except the South and SSW zones, on a wall where everyone's face looks North, that is, on the South wall. The living face the direction of life; only the departed are made to face Yama in the South.
In which zone should the chabutra (raised platform) be built?
Although it is not this class's topic, the chabutra is always built at the corner: in WSW, SW or SSW. All three belong to Nairutya: the southern Nairutya, Nairutya itself and the western Nairutya.
The bedroom falls in the South-South-West, a negative zone of the house, but its own zoning looks right. Which should be followed?
Zones are first taken from the total area of the house. After that, the room's own vastu is used for the interior inside it, such as where to keep water, a meter or other items in that room.
If the dressing room is in the SSW, can a mirror not be used there?
A dressing room has four walls, so fix the mirror on its North or East wall. If the wash basin is already in the South and its mirror must be there, fix a mirror of the same size on the North wall; the pit made in the South is matched by one opposite and the effect evens out.
Can the mountain scenery be used when the SW or SSW is cut or extended?
Yes. When it is cut, the mountain scenery is used to extend it.
My house entry is in the SSW and my 10th house has Sun, Mercury, Moon and Ketu with an exalted Venus; can I move the entry to the South-East?
If you open the South, open it in the good South pada (S4 as heard), and if you open the West, in the good West pada (W4 as heard). The present South-West entry should be corrected with door power.
