What is Vaastu Shastra

Vaastu Shastra is thousands of years old but since the mid - 1990s, there's been a sudden revival of interest in the subject. So even business and political leaders are constantly relocating and redesigning their offices according to Vaastu Shastra hoping it will benefit their lives and careers.

 Believers have a modern term for Vasstu Shastra : Ancient Wisdom of Architectonics. Vaastu Shastra, the traditional Indian architecture and design system, specifies the detailed methodology of designing buildings and interiours, even buying land, in order to maximize benefits from the same for the occupier. .

This system relies in harmonizing any real estate development with the five elements of Indian mythology namely air, water, earth, fire and space. Before getting into the details of Vaastu Shastra, one should understand the basics. According to traditional Indian wisdom, Nature comprises five basic elements: sky, air, fire, earth and water. Vaastu deals with the positive power of three laments: earth, water, and fire (essentially the sun). But let's consider four of them in relation to earth :

Sky :-

            It's the endless space available in the universe. The universal concept of sky is beyond man's imagination and reaches, as it is a never-ending eternal development.

Air :-

            (or atmosphere) is composed of gases like oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, helium, neon, krypton and water vapour.

Water :-

            Due to rainfall from the clouds, water flowed into low-lying area of earth's surface and oceans were formed. The eternal water cycle is one of nature's mysteries.

Sun :-

            Sun plays a vital role in Vaastu Shastra. It's the source of all life on earth and this is the reason why the Sun is worshipped as an incarnation of God and the source of all earthly creation.
