Grate dried coconut (gola), mix it with white sandalwood and ghee, and perform a havan at the Bhrisha pad to remove confusion and decide quickly and correctly.
The tree of Jayant is sandalwood; since it cannot be grown in a pot, plant tulsi at E3 and stand a small sandalwood stick in the pot so the fragrance spreads through the house.
Have an Om or swastik made of sandalwood and paste it on the main door. It brings very good results, following the royal practice of mixing sandalwood into door wood.
When a bed is made of unsuitable wood or one has to sleep in a wrong zone, a small piece of sandalwood touching the wood of the bed, or asan wood under its four legs, corrects it.
The state of Parjanya is read from how far a dab of original chandan spreads its fragrance, whether yellow mustard burnt at the pad throws sparks at you, and how well the plants of the house grow.
Parjanya, the cloud and rain devta (megh, badal) at E2 next to Shikhi, brings rain, productivity and fertility and fulfils plans and wishes like a kalpavriksha. It is the doctor of crops, people and animals.
Original chandan for testing
E2 pad, 50.625 to 61.875 degrees from North, outer pishach bhoomi (North-East into East-North-East)
Bhrisha, the seventh devta of the East, is weighty and powerful with its own gravity; balanced, it awakens the nerves of the brain and raises thinking power, observation and one-pointed concentration, like a bird gazing fixedly at one point. Imbalanced, the mind gets confused, the nature turns dominating and kidney problems appear.
Dried coconut (gola), white sandalwood and ghee for havan
Pad E7 of the East side, 106.875 to 118.125 degrees (East-South-East zone)
Jayant, the third devta of the East (pad E3, in the outer paishachik ring), is the success-maker who completes any work by any means (saam, daam, dand, bhed) while following dharma, and converts knowledge into wealth. Its door is called the vipul sampada (abundant wealth) door because the grace of the Moon on this pad is very strong.
Tree: sandalwood (chandan); in a pot, tulsi with a small sandalwood stick
Pad E3 of the East side, 61.875 to 73.125 degrees (East-North-East zone), in the outer paishachik ring
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.
Fragrance: red rose, kapoor (camphor) and chandan
Pad E4 of the East side, 73.125 to 84.375 degrees (East-North-East and East zones)
Satya, the sixth devta of the East, is the son of Dharma and stands for truth, goodwill and justice; like a village panchayat whose members speak the truth, it gives fair decisions. Balanced, it makes a person a good judge and advisor; imbalanced, lies spread through the house and honour is lost.
White sandalwood, coconut and ghee for havan
Pad E6 of the East side, the 11.25 degrees after Surya, 95.625 to 106.875 degrees (East and East-South-East zones)
Surya, the fifth devta at the centre of the East, lights the three worlds, destroys darkness and negativity, gives energy to all planets and never misses its time. Balanced, it gives fearlessness, good decisions, speaking power, fame, leadership, government support and perfect time management.
Red flowers and red sandalwood (lal chandan) for havan
Pad E5, the centre of the East, 84.375 to 95.625 degrees (East zone)
Make the main door of solid wood such as teak, ideally with a little sandalwood, and carve auspicious symbols, mantras and floral designs on it. Energy takes on the chemistry of the material it passes through, so flush, ply, fibre and glass doors weaken the result.
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.
The East belongs to the Sun. Its interior uses light orange, greens, pink, yellow and ivory white, sandstone, copper or gold-polished showpieces, sunrise pictures and sun-loving plants.
Plants: red rose (indoor), bougainvillea, peace lily, giloy; fruit trees and white sandalwood outdoors only
How can one test whether Parjanya devta is imbalanced, for example when factory machines keep breaking down?
Burn a little peeli sarson at Parjanya's place: if it bursts out in sharp sparks that touch the body, Parjanya is upset or imbalanced, which is why the machines there break down and do not give production. If the trees of the house do not reach their proper height or bear good fruit, Parjanya is displeased. Parjanya is active when a little original chandan applied there spreads its fragrance through the whole house and the residents' wishes come true.
How do we know whether Shikhi or Parjanya is deactivated?
Use the same tests taught for activation. If the devta is deactivated, no fragrance spreads (desi ghee for Shikhi, chandan for Parjanya) and no sprouting happens (the wheat jaware for Shikhi, the coconut on the kalash for Parjanya).
What results do flush, plywood, fiber and glass main doors give?
The main door should be only of wood, best of teak, and royal doors were of sandalwood or had a little sandalwood mixed in. Flush doors are made from plywood of thorny shrubs, so even a house costing crores with a cheap flush main door does not get good results, because energy takes on the chemistry of the material it passes through. A sandalwood Om or Swastik pasted on the door also gives very good results.
