Questions and answers

All 20 questions
In a house visited earlier an elephant was painted in the Ishaan, yet the elephant is said to be the vehicle of the East. Where does it belong?

The elephant is the vehicle of Indra, lord of the East. Between the East and the North-East lies a 45-degree span with several pads, among them a debt door and a door that makes one rich, and every 11.25 degrees the chemistry and circumstances change, so the exact pad matters.

Pictures of the Sun with running horses are popular in homes. In which direction should they be placed?

A picture of the Sun goes only in the East. Make sure it really is the Sun: a Sun-like figure with a moustache is Shani Dev, and in one prominent family his images on both gates facing the house were followed by incurable illness in member after member.

The main door has a single shutter and a double shutter is not possible. What should be done?

Correct it with a painting, door power, door decoration (door sajja) or a door bandhan hung outside. Where the door has one shutter, keep a bandhanwar always hung on it and the dosh is not counted.

In which direction exactly should the picture for Shikhi or Parjanya be put?

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.

Who benefits most from the white gandharva nagar cloud picture at 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.

There are many photos at home of ancestors, gods and family, plus statues. Where and how should they be placed?

All of them, photos of ancestors, gods and family and statues of deities, will be taught in detail later, including where each goes and which way it should face. Even the wider world is confused about which way ancestors' photos should face.

Can family photos or a Hanuman ji picture be placed in the South-South-East?

Yes. Family photos can go in the SSE with the faces in the photo turned toward North, and a Hanuman ji picture can also go there, facing South.

Should a picture of Lakshmi ji be put in the kitchen?

No. Put up a picture of your own isht (chosen deity) or of the guru you follow.

If the master bedroom is in the South-West, can ancestors' photos be put up in it?

No. Ancestors' photos should not be put inside the bedroom, even when the bedroom is in the South-West.

Do paintings or decorative idols of God also need correct placement?

Yes, they also represent a planet and should be placed correctly. A consecrated God's photo should face North or East, or West if that is not possible, but never South; South-facing is for the photos of ancestors who have left this world.

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.

If doors are already open on wrong padas, how are they treated in interior vastu?

Vedic vastu says the defects of a wrongly placed door can be removed through the decoration of the door itself: auspicious symbols, yantras, paintings and artworks made on the door, door power at the threshold, and a bandhanwar (toran) hung on it. This class therefore treats wrong doors with symbols, torans, bandhanwars and colours rather than structural changes.
