VAST GRANTH
Vastu Granth
What is Vastu Shastra?
Vastu is the science of
direction that combines all the five elements of nature and balances them with
man and materials. It is all about the interaction of various forms of best
effect on a living person. It aims to create an subtle atmosphere in which we
can bring the best in ourselves. Like any other science, vastu is universal,
rational, practical and utilitarian. It is not a religion but a science.
The principles laid down in
Vastu were formed keeping in mind the influence of the Sun, its heat and light,
energy, directions of the wind, the moon’s position, earth’s magnetic field,
and the influence of cosmos on our planet. The system is a mixture of science
of directions, astronomy and astrology.
The five elements of Panch
Mahabhuta are Fire, Earth, Air, Water and Ether. Taking care of these elements
is called Vastu Shastra. NorthEast direction is also called as "
Eshan" or "Ishan" Corner or Vastu Pooja Corners or God's corner.
The head of Vastu Purush is always in Eshan direction.
(Northeast) Eshan corner is the
most important corner that gives all round development. If Eshan corner is loss
the family suffers a lot and the members suffer with many problems, and if
Ishan corner is clean, risen or extended then the family members position will
gradually develop. They lead a peaceful and enjoyable life. This is the holiest
direction among 8 (Eight) directions in Vastu Shastra. This direction should be
open and less loaded when compared to all other directions.
History of Vastu Shastra
Vastu Shastra is more than 5000
yrs old. We, humans built our luxurious houses keeping in mind the five
elements of our environment. As the brains of humans began to become sharper
they began to think about effects (good/bad) of environment on them as well as
their houses. Our sages have written many books out of which Vishwakarma,
Rajvallabha & VastuPadvinyas are the most ancient books. We also get more
knowledge of vastu from many Puranas like Vayupurana, Matsyapurana, Agnipurana,
Skandpurana etc. Vastu Shastra is totally based on Sun’s rays and its invisible
energy. The seven rays of the Sun have different useful as well as destructive
energy.Hence, from sunrise to sunset the different directions face different
effects.
The seven rays of the sun stand
for the seven Gods Parjana, Kashyap, Mahendra, Surya, Satya, Bhrush, Nabhas.
The sages studied the seven rays and according to their qualities given names
like Kanchansam, Spatik Nirmal, Indraneel, Vaidryu, Padmarag, Vajrak &
Brahmatej. These seven rays are also called as Seven Gods and a day is also
divided into 7 parts like 1. Brahmamuhrat 2. Usha 3. Arun 4. Pratahsandhav 5.
Madhyayan 6. Aprahan 7. Sayankal

In Vastu Shastra Vastu Purush is
actively working in a house whether big/small, shops, temples etc. There are
many entertaining stories related to Vastu Dev and its rituals for performing
pooja in Matsyapuran.
In ancient times Andhak, a demon
and Lord Shiva fought a war for many years. After killing this demon the sweat
from Lord Shiva’s body took shape of Mahabhoot. He drank blood from Andhak’s
body but could not satisfy his hunger. He did great penance and then he was
granted a boon by Lord Shiva. He started to kill and eat all human beings and
animals on the earth. Human beings, Demons and even God’s were afraid. They
went to Lord Brahma. At that time God Brahma suggested them to make him fall
upside down. 81 Gods managed to fall him upside down and settled on the
different parts of his body. This Mahabhoot begged God Brahama and at that time
God Brahma granted him a boon saying that whenever anybody builds a vastu at
that time you will be worshipped by them and due to this you will give them
health, wealth, peace and happiness and people who do not take your blessings
will face lots of troubles given by you.
Many tales are found in many
puranas. Another story is taken from our great epic Mahabharata. When Pandavas
created Indraprasth, a vastu shastri named Maya had built Mayanagri on the
order of Lord Krishna. In this Mayanagri in the centre was a square shaped
pond. Maya had built the pond in such an artistically way that it looked like
flat land. Duryodhan had fallen in it. Lord Krishna had known to himself that
Kauravas will take away Indraprastha from the Pandavas hence he had ordered
Maya to build a pond.
In Vastu if there is a well, or
pond in the middle than the person who stays there is destroyed. Hence Kauravas
were destroyed.
Even in Mohenjodaro and Harappa
Civilization Vastu Shastra was used at a great level.
Existing Proof of Vastu Shastra
India’s most financial aid giver
temple “Tirupati Balaji ” (Vyankteshwar Temple) is in Andhra Pradesh. This is a
very ancient temple, and its structure is built exactly on Vastu Shastra. This
is not just a coincidence. The main entrance of the temple faces East. In the
Eshan direction of the temple there is a pond and a temple of Varah Swami. In
the Agni direction there is a facility of a Kitchen as well as Lodge for
devotees and tourists. There are very tall mountains towards its West and South
and in the East and North direction there are slopes on which gardens are
grown.
Vastu & Plots direction Information
In Vastu Shastra each direction
has different importance. From the Eight directions Vastu Shastra has main
eight rules as per:
The East Direction: It is Lord Indra’s direction and also the sun
rises from this direction. This direction gives happiness, prosperity, fame.
There are nine Gods in this direction:1. Ish 2. Parjanya 3. Jayant 4. Indra 5.
Surya 6. Satya 7. Bhrush 8. Akash and 9. Agni
The West Direction: This direction belongs to Varun Dev. Varun
Dev has rights on Rain and Water. Varun Dev is the main God. 1. Rog 2. Paap 3.
Shesh 4. Asur 5. Varun 6 Pushpadevta 7. Sugreev 8. Nandi 9. Pitru. Among these
Rog, Paap, Asur, Nandi and Pitru have krur energy. The house should not have
main gate facing West.
The North Direction: This direction belongs to Kuber, who himself
has lots of wealth and fame. In this direction: 1 Ish 2 Diti 3 Aditi 4 Shail 5
Kuber 6. Bhallat 7. Mukhya 8. Naag 9. Rog are all Gods which will give
Happiness & Prosperity.
The South Direction: Yam is the main God, In all there are 7 gods 1.
Agni 2. Pusha 3. Vitatha 4. Gruhxat 5. Yam 6. Gandharva 7. Mrugraj 8. Mrug 9.
Pitru
This direction is said to be not
good for any good deeds.
The South East Direction: (Agni) In East and South directions Agni is
there hence Agni is the main God. Havan, Hom and even putting Vastu Purush can
be performed in this direction.
The South West Direction: (Nairutya) It is in the corners of South and
West direction. Nairuti is the goddess of this direction. This direction is not
suitable for any good works as we do not get any results. Hence this direction
should be used for storing heavy materials. It is not advisable to have anything
as Krur energy will be absorbed making it more dangerous for the human beings.
The North –West Direction: (Vayavy) It is in the corner of the North and
West directions. This direction is of Vayu devta, which is an important source
for all humans as well as animals to survive. Hence very tall buildings should
not be built and also tall trees should not be planted.
The North –East Direction: (Eshan) This direction is in the corner of Northeast.
The main God is God himself. Nothing should be built in this direction.
Latrines, Waste storeroom etc should not be built. Wells, Underground tanks,
Boring etc is very auspicious and gives very good results. There should not be
any pits in the centre or even in vastu’s centre. The reason is Lord Brahma
resides there.
