Questions and Answers

Take the centre of the whole plot and map the devtas on it; all the open land around the house, even outside the building, becomes space for the devtas. This is why big houses abroad, as in America, are so balanced: about 4,000 sq ft is built on about 40,000 sq ft of land, so the 32 outer devtas get a huge, open pishach bhoomi and the manushya and dev bhoomi get cross ventilation from all sides. Just as a person given two acres of land enjoys the space, the devtas are pleased by big open land.

If construction covers only part of the plot with space left all around, the 45 devtas are allocated on the whole plot and their places are selected on it.

Use the angular method taught in class. Whatever the tilt and whatever the shape, octagonal, pentagonal or regular, find the centre, divide the plan into pishach, manushya-dev and brahma bhoomi and mark the pads by degrees as demonstrated, then practise it from the recording.

A devta does not own one wall; it is an 11.25-degree sector. Shikhi and Parjanya face East, so put the picture within that sector, facing East; when a student asked, West-facing was also accepted.

No. A lot of misleading talk goes around about the 45 devtas. The maximum remedy has to be done when the land is prepared and built on; the other remedies taught for later cannot activate a devta 100% and bring it only to about 30 to 35%.

All 45 devta places cannot be left empty, or there would be nowhere to live or keep things in a house or flat. The Vedic texts say to protect the ashtamansh (one-eighth part of the pad); wooden items kept on any devta's place, even on a marma, are not counted as a dosh, because wood does not sink in water but floats. Besides, the devta's place lies beneath us, and the devta is basically a particular energy.

Yes. In a flat seen on a recent visit, whose door is exactly at E2 (Parjanya), the resident keeps a water-filled kalash with a coconut on it outside the door and changes the water daily; the coconut has grown into a large plant, and the resident reported very good results for ten years without needing any planetary remedies. This is exactly the remedy prescribed for Parjanya.

Especially people whose wishes are not coming true or whose production is not happening. A shining white gandharva nagar picture at Parjanya fulfils wishes like a kalpavriksha, completes stuck work, brings back stuck money, helps sell a property that is not selling, builds market image and gets goods and machine production moving.

Every devta has its own month; Shikhi and Parjanya stay awake in Shravan (Sawan). The coconut kalash can still be placed at Parjanya after Shravan has passed; once Parjanya is awake it fulfils the wishes of the residents, so that in such a house whoever enters and voices a wish sees it fulfilled.

Shikhi devta (E1) is directly linked to Jupiter-related businesses such as accounts, banking and education, and supports big industries and factories. Jayant (E3) gives the most success in light-weight goods, plastic items and the paper and plastic industries, and the steel industry was named next. Mahendra (E4) suits people who need a job or service, especially government jobs, contracts and tenders, and Surya (E5) rules politics, administration and government work. A chart showing the business and bhog samagri under every devta was promised.

Two devtas govern consultancy work (their names are unclear in the recording). In this class Mahendra (E4) is called the devta of successful consultants, and Satya (E6) the good advisor and decision-maker, with a court or justice room best made at E6.

This was to be explained in detail later, as there is a big confusion about it. Asura devtas are also needed: the day there are no asuras in your house, your work will not run, so the aim is balance, not removing them.

In a full vastu poojan all 45 devtas are worshipped and offered together. When one particular devta has to be activated, offer its bhog samagri or do its jaap in its own time slot for the maximum result. An offering at another time is not useless, but just as food eaten at the fixed time of hunger satisfies more, the result differs.

Where there is heat, coolness is given, and where there is cold, heat is given; heat added to heat burns things out and cold added to cold also ends them. It is like swar, where the cooling chandra swar should flow in the body while the Sun is up. E7 lies next to the fire (Agni) corner, so it was given blue.

Such a case confirms that a defect at E7 brings kidney problems. Block that E7 door; the correction takes time, about a year was mentioned. The student also planned to apply the door power treatment taught in the course.

The symbols are taken from the Vedic tradition, such as the swastik, but they are designed with an added element that generates and spreads their energy, and the material they are engraved on matters. Each piece was to be shown physically in class.

Your own house also has a paishachik ring. In a flat, the band along the walls on all four sides (about 1 foot in the example discussed) is its paishachik bhoomi, so mark it with the measurement taught in the previous class and treat the devtas there.

In a vastu pooja all 45 devtas are activated together in one sitting. A single devta can also be activated on its own with its samagri at its own time.

When the rays of the Sun come, they fall outside first and only then come inside. The devtas of the outer ring sit there for protection: they occupy the land on all four sides so that no negativity can enter.

It shows a defect or imbalance at that pad. When an offering reaches a defective place the defect tries to come out, as when granite tiles at one devta pad cracked during a group havan, and the body reacts. The uneasiness is a signal: the pad must be purified and activated with the method being taught (havan samagri, bhog samagri, mantra or the samagri to hang), so wait for the full method before trying again.

As in a kundli, where Jupiter blesses whatever it aspects with full drishti, a devta also aspects the devta opposite it; Surya, for example, balances Varun. If you cannot balance a devta directly, balance the devta whose full drishti falls on it, and its gaze will set it right.

It is a 45-minute period. The count starts with Shikhi devta from 3:00 to 3:45 am, and each next devta takes the next 45 minutes.

Take the centre of the constructed area and mark the pads from it; part of the paishachik ring may fall just outside the house. For a new building, do the zoning of the whole plot for the boundary wall gate, and the zoning of the constructed area to mark E3 or E4 for the main door of the house.

Use pure coconut oil of the kind that solidifies when it is even slightly cold, like the edible coconut oil used in the South. If that is not available, a blended brand such as Parachute can be used if it burns properly.

Someone who represents Brahmin qualities by conduct, not by birth: a vegetarian of good character with a pure mind. A person who eats non-veg, drinks or does wrong deeds turns the pooja into a mere show. Wear the janeu, purify yourself and wear clean or new clothes.
