There are ten directions: the four main directions, the four corner directions (vidisha), the upward (urdhva) and the downward (adho), each with its own dikpal. To master them a practitioner needs knowledge of about ten subjects beyond Vastu itself.
In small homes of 700 to 800 sq ft, plots of 70 to 80 gaj and flats under 1000 sq ft, direction and element rules are not applied; instead the sizes of rooms, beds, tables and kitchen platforms are set by aay (mathematical Vastu) to generate the needed element.
Bedroom, kitchen, kitchen platform and furniture in small homes and flats
The main door should have two shutters opening inward and a height twice its width; doors and windows should be even in number, and window shutters should open outward.
Main door and windows of the house
The main door should be rectangular, its height twice its width, with a four-piece wooden chaukhat. When the 1:2 ratio cannot be kept, size it by aay (length times width divided by 8) to get a 1 or 3 aay door.
Main door
Small homes of 70, 80 or 90 gaj are not treated with element-based directional vastu; aay vastu is applied to them instead. Under mathematical vastu, studied later, vastu applies to homes from about 100 gaj upward.
No. The chaukhat is the four-piece frame, and a window or glass above it is not counted in the door aay, because fixed glass stays closed; glass that opens and closes would be counted. Fixed glass above a door is itself used as a remedy.
Convert the inches into points, for example by multiplying by 10, and then calculate the remainder.
No. Only the door itself is measured; the chaukhat and the upper and lower thresholds are not.
Multiply the length by the width and divide by 8; the remainder is the aay. For example, a door 36 inches wide and 72 inches (6 ft) high gives 36 x 72. Remember that even x even always gives an even remainder.
Yes, there is no problem. Another formula, sizing it according to aay, can also be applied, folding or not.
It should always be rectangular, with a full chaukhat of four pieces of wood; a three-piece frame does not give the same results even on N4. Its height should be twice its width, for example 7 feet high for a 3.5-foot width, so do not run doors up to the full height of the room as some new buildings do. Where the 1:2 ratio cannot be kept, calculate the aay (length x width divided by 8; the remainder is the aay) and make a door of 1 or 3 aay. Avoid triangular doors (trouble for women), shakat doors (trouble for the family head), supa and sun-shaped doors (loss of money), bow-shaped doors (family disputes) and round doors (trouble for children, more girls born).
