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).

The nine ati marma points, mostly in and around the Brahmasthan of a regular plot; in an irregular plot they can fall elsewhere and must be marked

Questions and answers

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.

If furniture made by carpenters is placed on a devta's pad, does it affect the devta?

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.

Which colour should the kitchen cabinets be?

Make the cabinets in the colours recommended for the kitchen walls and floor: ivory together with orange and pista green. A combination of these looks very beautiful.

Can yellow be used in the kitchen?
Can white furniture be used in the kitchen?

White is often said to be bad, but bad results from it have not been seen in practice. White is allowed in every direction; it represents the water element, yet many very prosperous homes use it, such as the white kitchen platform in the Ambani home. This advice rests on case studies rather than copied literature, which is why black, not white, is the colour named to avoid.

Can a rectangular shape be used in the North?

It is better avoided. In the North, choose a half-moon type shape as far as possible.

What colour should a child's study table be?

Green or ivory is the best choice for a child's study table; a teak colour also works.

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.
