Fragrant dhoop is burnt on the land or in the flat, alone or during havan: the more its fragrance grows, the better the place, while a foul smell or no fragrance at all marks a bad land.
Cow ghee, when burnt during havan
On the land or inside the flat
Four ghee diyas are lit in the four corners of a flat: if all four burn until the ghee is used up, the flat is excellent, and the more of them that go out, the weaker the flat.

The four corners of the flat
Aahuti (oblations) are offered with fragrant dhoop to each of the 45 Vastu Devtas on the land; the devta at whose aahuti a sneeze, itching, crackling, harsh words, a frightening sound or crying is noticed marks the zone where the land holds a defect.
Cow ghee
On the land, over the zones of the 45 Vastu Devtas
A ghee diya with white, red and yellow wicks pointing to the four directions is lit on a water-filled earthen ghat in the North-East, over a mantra written in kesar; a wick that goes out before the ghee ends points to the direction holding a defect.

Three simple tests show whether Shikhi devta is awake: how far the ghee fragrance spreads after a small havan, how long a ghee diya burns at the pad, and how tall wheat jaware grow there in seven days.

Perform a ghee havan; if the ghee fragrance spreads through the whole house, Jayant devta is active.

If a ghee lamp at the Satya pad keeps burning continuously for as long as it has ghee, Satya devta is active.

Plants are the most sensitive testers of home energy: tulsi and white hibiscus react at once to negativity, and a tulsi that keeps drying or a peace lily that will not grow shows negativity that has to be cleared.

Wherever these plants are kept, especially beside the tulsi
It is a lazy, dormant land where the energy is disturbed and the fire element has fallen to zero, since sleep comes with coolness. Perform a havan with samagri, light a cow ghee akhand jyot in the South-East for eight days, and burn dhoop daily with Bhimseni kapoor on the lamp's upper plate; within eight days everyone starts waking up.
Three tests. Offer nine aahuti of half a spoon of desi cow ghee with half a spoon of rice over burning Bhimseni kapoor: if the ghee fragrance spreads through the whole house up to the pishach bhoomi, the devta is active. A ghee diya at the spot that burns longer than the same ghee lasts elsewhere also shows activation. Sow wheat in soil in a leaf dona, as in Navratri: jaware about 11 inches long in seven days mean full activation, about 7 inches mean moderate, and then the activation methods should be done.
No, goods lying there are not arpan or samarpan. A guest never picks sweets off the dining table himself; they are served on his plate and he is invited to start. In the same way, serve the devta its bhog in a leaf dona or on a paan leaf, which the devtas love, and request it to accept the offering and increase the energy of the place. If the pooja was not done during construction, offer it at griha pravesh: any dish made in desi cow ghee, such as gujiya.
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).
Removing the bone is not enough; the land needs its rites, just as a house is purified after a death. Do a vastu registry with five coconuts (four corners and the bone spot), remove the affected soil, do agni sanskar with mango wood, ghee and camphor in 16 places and float the ash in flowing water, purify with water and mantra, sprinkle gomutra and plaster with cow dung, put lime and sulphur in the pit, keep a lamp burning there for 24 hours, and mix a little mercury into the soil and the four corners. If the shilanyas had already been done, it is broken and must be redone after purification.
Sagun is a swar vigyan technique that is learnt fully only in the complete swar training; in brief, the lamp is lit while holding the breath. A lamp lit in sagun burns far longer: a 100 g ghee lamp lit on Dussehra burned for 10 to 12 days and a 10 g lamp has burned for 27 days, so a desi cow ghee lamp in the South-East of the kitchen needs only 25 to 50 g of ghee a day. A conch blown in sagun while holding a wish drives all negative energy out of the house.
The small niches were made for lamps; they are the eyes of the door, and lamps placed in them open its eyes. The jharokhas beside them are the ears. Lamps must be lit in the niches on festivals such as Diwali, Dussehra, Holi and Raksha Bandhan, and in royal houses they were lit daily; a house whose eyes stay open keeps a right watch over everyone. If a door, even one in a wrong place, is decorated like this with small desi cow ghee lamps in the niches, its defects do not apply.
Yes, tulsi can be kept inside if it gets proper air and light. If it dries again and again, the house has negativity; light a cow-ghee diya near it. Tulsi is said to produce the most oxygen, and a ghee lamp beside it to generate so much oxygen that the pair could serve like an oxygen cylinder in an emergency.
No. Nothing works better than an akhand deepak; what 10 or 50 grams of ghee burning in it does, nothing else does.
