Natural four-axis crystallised hexagonal quartz spread under the flooring energises a room or plot and nullifies the defect of a room built in an unsuitable zone.

Shilpa Ratna describes the types of land and their correction with minerals. Land holding asura (demonic) minerals, such as coal, lignite, manganese and other black minerals, lacks prosperity; placing gems inside such land (ratna prabha bhoomi) changes its chemistry and composition.
A bunch of natural citrine (yellow quartz) kept in a glass bowl on the table makes visitors easily attracted to and impressed by the owner and raises the aura of the office.
On the office or shop table; also at home and during online meetings
Four round natural stones of about 100 to 150 g each, kept on the study table or in the room, support a child's memory, confidence, creativity and concentration.
For a main door on a wrong South pada, hang a toran of stones or gems, a toran of copper and wood, or a red triangular swastik bandhanwar put up on a Saturday or Tuesday.
A defect in the South means a damaged Mars; strengthening Mars with stone cladding, stone flooring, stone statues and red coral or hematite nullifies the South defect.
When the East is closed by a raised wall or a heavy structure, items that capture the Sun energy are placed in the East so that the Sun still rises in the home.
A person with a weak Mars in the chart almost always has a South dosh at home. Stone cladding with projecting stones on the South wall, stone showpieces in the South and better relations with brothers and friends strengthen Mars and the South.
When land energy is weak it can be raised through mantra, yantra, pyramids, gems and minerals, soil sanskar, garbh vinyas and petrology methods. Raising the land energy alone has restarted factories that had not run for years, even with a tall structure wrongly placed in the Ishaan.
In the land of the home, factory, business, school or hospital
When a plot's North-South axis is short, the magnetic field is increased by planning every room long in the North-South direction or, failing that, by placing heavy magnets and hematite mineral on the North-South axis.

The symbol of the space element is a circle, so a circular mandna is made at the Brahmasthan; it virtually opens the Brahmasthan and gives it power, the way a virtual door is opened.
A stone held on the palm while walking a land jumps where energy, ground water or minerals are present; even a heavy stone of 10 to 20 kg has been seen to jump.
Bricks and stones are male or female: when struck, one gives a khan sound and the other a jhan sound. Joining a male with a female, like plus with minus, makes them hold each other for ages.
The side of the chart that holds more than two planets, with at least one exalted or swagrahi planet at a good degree, is the direction that brings a person progress and happiness.
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.

The corners of a plot are its biggest sources of energy, and energy flows diagonally from corner to corner through the brahmasthan like a highway. Piling or filling a huge mass over a whole corner zone creates a serious defect.

Paintings, carvings, idols, elevations and domes are made to change the mind (chitt) through images (chitra); temple interiors and exteriors were designed to balance elements, planets and forces and even to influence the devtas.
Marble is calcium carbonate (CaCO3); homes with all-marble or Italian marble floors and no wooden flooring were found with sinus and bronchitis problems and, over time, pain in the knees, legs, thighs and back.
The fourth principle of interior vastu: study the physical and chemical properties of every building, decoration and remedy material (metal, wood, stone, adhesive, paint) and choose them according to the owner's planets.
Natural materials hold planetary energy while petroleum by-products hold none. Use fire-baked clay bricks, lime where possible, no more than two or three species of wood and black basalt road metal, and build walls in plumb with a honeycomb bond.
Only about 55 percent of the Sun's energy reaches the earth. Of that, trees and plants capture about 95 percent, mirrors 80, pyramids 65, water 60, yantras 60 to 90, metals 45 and stones 35, while plastic and petroleum by-products capture none.
Room decoration in general; plants are chosen by planet and direction
Choose the platform colour by the kitchen's zone and use ivory with orange for the floor and ivory with pista green for the walls and cabinets; the correct platform colour alone removes about 25 percent of a wrongly placed kitchen's dosh.
Make the platform L-shaped or I-shaped, never U-shaped, and keep the burner on stone; ceramic tile is very good, synthetic quartz, marble and steel are acceptable, while laminate, wood and black stone are not.
Use wood for stairs in NNE, ENE and East; green Kota stone, pink marble, Lakha granite or vitrified glass tiles in ESE, SE and South; yellow or Dholpur stone in SSW and SW; and white stone or vitrified tiles in the West.
A dehleez is essential in the main door and good in every door. Make it of wood for a soft nature or of stone for firmness, keep it above the floor and mount the door on top of it.
Torans are chosen by the purpose and work of the place: flower torans for a king-like life and respect, stone torans for palaces, forts and soldiers, a special toran for treasuries and finance work, and gem (ratna) torans for the home temple.
Main doors, city gates, treasury doors and the home temple
Granite contains fluoride, and areas with granite bedrock show more kidney problems and aggression, so it should be used only in limited places such as stairs and windows.
Some dowse for water with a coconut, some with a stone or guava wood; which is right?
Any of them, because the dowser is the person; the tool is only a bridge, a medium in which the current produces movement. Some people dowse with bare hands, and some sway or tremble where water is. Only a person whose body reacts to the energy can check it; people who live in a negative place get used to it, like a worm content in a drain.
In small houses three corners are closed by walls anyway. Does that count as covering the corners?
No. Walls enclosing a house are normal; covering means burying a corner under a huge mass, such as a boulder fill 35 to 40 ft long or a thousand bricks stacked permanently in one corner. Energy moves through all four corners, so keep them free of such heavy masses whatever the direction.
Why has not a single stone of the Khajuraho temples moved in over a thousand years?
No cement or adhesive was used: male stones were joined into female stones, an example of the physical property of materials. The temples were also oriented so that the sun's rays fall first at the deity's feet and, as the sun reaches the South-East, at another deity's feet.
How long do the sun's rays take to reach the earth, and which materials capture the most of the planetary energy they bring?
The sun's rays take about 8 minutes 20 seconds to reach the earth, and only about 55% of their energy arrives; the other 45% is lost on the way. Of what arrives, trees and plants capture about 95%, mirrors 80%, yantras 60 to 90%, pyramids 65% (which is why fruit kept under a pyramid stays fresh), water 60% (mainly the Moon's energy), metals 45% and stones 35%. Plastic and other petroleum by-products capture none, so interiors should rely on natural materials and on indoor and outdoor plants chosen for the planet of each direction.
How are male and female bricks identified, and why does it matter?
When struck, one brick gives a khan sound and the other a jhan sound: one is male and the other female, like plus and minus. Bricks and stones laid by joining male with female hold each other and never let go, which is why buildings 2,000 years old still stand as they are.
Why should the burner always rest on stone, whatever the platform is made of?
Fire lives with stone: deep below the earth's crust, in the mantle, the rocks are molten like fire. So wherever a platform is made, the part where the burner sits must be stone; laminate and wooden platforms are not good and stainless steel is only partly acceptable.
Why does the colour of the kitchen platform matter so much?
Eye contact is greatest with the platform, since rolling, chopping and all cooking work happen on it, so its colour works on the eyes and mind. In a wrongly placed kitchen the right platform colour alone can correct about 25% of the dosh: ivory for South, South-East, South-South-East and West-South-West kitchens; light red lakha granite for South-East and South-South-East, used sparingly because red stone comes only as granite, which develops pin holes; yellow for South-West and West; and green for South-East, South-South-East, South, North-East and North.
Should black stone be used for the kitchen platform?
No. Black represents the water and space elements, and looking at black continuously weakens the eyesight. Tiny insects, bacteria and ants cannot be seen on black stone, so they get mixed into the food.
Won't a red platform in the South-East or South-South-East increase the fire element too much?
That is why perfect red is not used, only a light red such as lakha granite. Fire can be kept burning 24 hours in the South-East, so a red platform is acceptable there: the zone tolerates any amount of fire because the sun's rays in the South-East are not intense after 9 am, whereas hot winds (loo) come from the South.
Can red kota stone be used for stairs in the South-South-West?
It is better not to use red kota stone for stairs in the South-South-West. For South-South-West and South-West stairs use yellow stone or Dholpur stone, which balances that zone and multiplies its energy.
Only crystallised quartz in hexagonal, four-axis form gives full results. Ordinary quartz gives only 10 to 20 percent results, though never a negative one: sand also contains quartz of the same chemistry, but in amorphous form, just as buttermilk and ghee both come from milk but differ greatly in value.
