ESOTERIC VASTU
Esoteric Vastu Shastra delves
into the spiritual and metaphysical aspects of Vastu, focusing on aligning
buildings with natural energies and cosmic forces for enhanced well-being and
harmony.
Here's a
deeper look into the esoteric side of Vastu Shastra:
·
Beyond Physical Structure:
While Vastu
Shastra is often understood as a science of architecture, its esoteric
perspective extends to understanding the subtle energies and spiritual forces
that influence a space and its inhabitants.
·
The "Vaastu Purusha":
A central
concept in esoteric Vastu is the "Vaastu Purusha," a cosmic being
depicted as a man lying with his head pointing northeast, within a grid of
squares. Different parts and directions of the grid are associated with
deities and guardians, influencing the energy flow within the space.
·
Harmonizing with Natural Energies:
Esoteric
Vastu emphasizes the importance of balancing the five elements (Earth, Water,
Fire, Air, and Space) to create a harmonious and healthy environment.
·
Prana and Life Force:
Esoteric
Vastu believes that buildings designed according to Vastu principles become
"alive" with prana, or life force.
·
Spiritual Well-being:
By aligning
a space with natural energies and cosmic forces, esoteric Vastu aims to promote
spiritual well-being, enhance creativity, and foster positive relationships.
·
Rituals and Practices:
Esoteric
Vastu may involve specific rituals, mantras, and practices to further enhance
the energy flow and spiritual harmony of a space.
·
Attributing to Vishwakarma:
Vastu,
crafts, and architecture are traditionally attributed to the divine Vishwakarma
in the Hindu pantheon.
