Vastu Remedies
Vastu Dosha is a proposed defect or deficiency in the familiar features of the eight directions
and these directions have been empowered with characters based on an assortment obtained
from the Panch-Maha-Bhutas. However, Vastu Dosha signifies spoiling the characters of the
directions under circumstances. lso, such doshas are closely related with Panch-Maha-
Bhutas associated !ualities of mind, soul, and human body. "t is possible to settle down the ill
effects through #$adhana# or meditation.
%oo&ing very closely, these !ualities have the ability to provide a shield e'haling from the
human soul that could protect the concerned person from ill effects of vastu doshas.
However, this idea is especially effective when the human efforts are put forth for wanting
obstructions made by the vastu doshas. (hus, meditation practices can serve the purpose as
they are gaining popularity with innovative techni!ues in meditation.
%et#s ta&e into account the vastu remedies for flats and homes that are needed for the
constructions that are made against the principles of vastu. t times, it happens that an act
done by a man out of ine'perience harms him a lot and such remedy seems to be highly
impossible. $ome of the remedies in getting relief from the problems are discussed below)
"f a canal or river flows in any direction other than facing north-east direction of the
home and having an anti-cloc&wise movement, it is better to set the statue of *anesh+i
in a dancing state facing towards the west on the north-east area of the house.
"f a factory or a house has a wrongly faced boring direction, a Panchmu&hi
Hanuman+i picture can be placed facing the boring#s south-west.
,hile entering in to the flat, if a bare wall is seen, either a statue or picture of
*anesh+i must be placed on it as a bare wall signifies loneliness. Hence, it is advisable
not to leave the wall without anything on it.
$wasti&a -antras can be used in improving the energy circles in some cases.
Moreover, a lot of care is re!uired and should be managed under the guidance of a
capable vastu mason.
.ow, let#s ta&en in to consideration the effects when particular rooms are constructed in a
wrong direction. /irstly, a &itchen room would aptly be good in a south-east direction and the
water tap in the &itchen to face the north east direction. 0n the contrary, if the &itchen faces
the north east direction, it restricts mutual love and peace in the family. Moreover, the
coo&ing direction should remain only towards the east and it would be better if the food to be
coo&ed on the stone is red. lso, if a tube well is not fit at a desirable direction, it causes
deficit of women, stomach, and se'ual problems among the men. (he remedy to this is to fit
the tube well or well in the north-east direction and it has to be ensured that the place remains
open at the house#s lowest level. "n case of toilets, it can be constructed towards the west or
south with face facing the north or west during discharging stool.
