Is Vasthu Sashtra authentic? Is our planet in right place as per Vastu?If not what doVastuShastragnas suggest?

Question

We all know that Vastu is being made popular. People modify their houses as per the suggestions made by Vastu Shashtragnas. If we accept for a while that problems get solved by such modifications. Then my question is why not contact these people to get assembled at one place and think about eliminating the misery, problems from the wolrd just by changing the planetary position of our planet. Why do accidents occurs to the vehicles that have undergone 'Puja'. Why do building get damaged even after doing 'bhomi pooja' with enchanting all mantras? Is it not the fact that World over buildings are constructed without doing 'bhoomi pooja' but still they remain intact. Think for a while and answer?

Answer 1

Well, Vaastu saastra suggests certain minimum requirements to be considered when u construct a house or sort of, which is based on certain practical and scientific reasons. They are like...

In south of India...

The kitchen should be always located at the south east corner of your plot. The reason is, you get direct sun light in the early mornings which is very helpful to the cook, who need not switch on lights to illuminate the kitchen. Plus, in the evening, the kitchen will not face the sun, hence it is quite comfortable for the lady who cooks evening food for the family. In addition to this, during summer, this corner is at a lower temperature compared to the other rooms, hence, helps the laday once again to sweat less!

Similarly,

Placement of god's idols facing east or facing north;

Location of windows, so that the south west breeze pass through the windows with ease and cool the rooms; etc.,

Same way, vaastu will be different from different locations of our country, I guess.

(Pls. note, I am not an expert in Vaastu, but I have observered these benefits who ever considered Vaastu orientation while constructing the house. At the same time, we should not accept whatever the vaastu expert says... because, I remember one business man built a concrete pillar in his company premises as suggested by the vaastu expert, since, his company was running under continuous loss for years. Where as, the problem was with the management of the company and not due to vaastu reasons!

So, follow the suggestions, whichever appear to be logical to you!

Answer 2

These days, we often hear people talking about Vaasthu kala. But none of us have an exact idea as to what is this Vastu shastra all about. Indian vaastu shastra is the science of direction that combines all the five elements of nature, namely earth, water, air, fire and space and uses them to the benefit of mankind. It is an art of using these five elements also known as Paanchbhootas, for the prosperity of humans.

Vaastu shastra is an art that enables us to lead a peaceful life, by creating congenial living conditions. It is an ancient Indian art that harnesses the energy of natural elements like the heat and light of sun, gravitational force of earth, direction of winds, the intensity of rainfall etc and uses them to balance with the surroundings of mankind. Thus, Vastu vidya is the art of molding the natural environment so as to suit the needs of human beings.

Answer 3

Bhoomi pooja and other religious formalities are OK as for as following traditions are concerned... talking of vastu shastra is like going back centuries back... better think about today's know-how and future findings...

Answer 4

ALL SASHTRAS ARE AUTHENTIC!!!,problem is people who claim to be experts in such matters are actually ignorant,that is they do not know whole thing,dont you if correct medcine is not given to a patient by the examinig doctor,patients condition would go to worse,its simple as that.it is not just easy eliminate worlds misery and other problems,if you why not ,my answer is it is because of us humans,reason is as lord buddha told centuries ago-"DESIRE IS THE CAUSE OF MISERY",it cannot be contained or satisfied easily,i think you got wider answer from my reasoning.

Answer 6

All these Vastushastra and Fengshui are like latest fads.
Vastushastra is about thumbrules of aspects of planning a house.It is okey if you follow them.But it will not affect much if you don't.
Let's consider a typical case.
Duplex bunglows exact mirror of each other with central wall common.
now,according to Vastushastra only one should be perfect.And the joke is each Vastu Consultant will say that The other one is perfect according to Vastushastra and we need modifications.(So,I get money)............
LOL.........
