Vasthu compliance
Almost everyone irrespective of religion and cast are now aware of importance of Vasthu in
designing and building a house.Some people think of Vasthu as a superstitious belief.Vasthu is not
superstition or blind belief.It is basically a science which deals with effect of polarity on human
beings developed  by old sages of India.

Like many sciences developed by old Indian sages, several aspects of Vasthu are also lost
especially those dealing with why certain effects happen.Such loss has happened mainly because of
reluctance of our old sages to teach the knowledge they acquired till they find a student good
enough for teaching.Sometimes they will never find that good student and the knowledge acquired
by the sage will die with him.All science and other knowledge oceans we have are passed on to next
generation through books and in normal case,next generation after studying and understanding
knowledge already acquired try to improve upon that.

One area where there is no clear cut written information is  available is on House construction In
Kerala.That is why I started writing these blogs using my experience in designing and building
houses in Kerala.

During my years in designing and building houses,I have seen and heard the influence of Vasthu
factors in the life of people living in houses.With these first hand knowledge I can tell that Vasthu as
written in books are completely correct and it influences life of people.But Vasthu is one area where
there are so many crooks with little or no knowledge in Vasthu but pretends to be experts in
Vasthu .They emphatically tell people totally wrong ideas as vasthu factors.Most of them belong to
old “Asaries”of Kerala.

As Per Vasthu there are four sections in a house.North East portion is called Eesanya.This is ideal
for Pooja room and this area should be kept neat and tidy.This is the only area where there can be
well for the plot.Our old asaris used to keep Kitchen in North East and some of those crooks who call
themselves as experts of Vasthu insists on advising people to put Kitchen at North East which is not
correct and it will give bad effects to people staying in the house.

Second zone is South east. It is called Agni kone and it is ideal for Kitchen.If you have a Bed room at
South east it will give very bad effects.South West is called Nairudhi and North West is called Vayu
corner.Ideal position for Bed room is at South west.In an office the Chief should sit at south
west.North West can be second option for Kitchen.If you want to study Vasthu get book on Vasthu
available at The Avenue  Press,25,D’Silva Road,Mylapore.Chennai-600004.Please do not simply
believe all those self proclaimed experts on Vasthu who will definitely misguide you.

I had several experiences of these crooks misguiding my clients as I do not wear a Kaavi mundu and
sport  a long beard to look like a Vasthu expert like these crooks.While designing house for a Marine
Engineer at Edappally I have kept all rooms at Vasthu correct positions.But the owner of the house
wanted to cross check with a Namboodiri who is the self proclaimed expert of Vasthu in Kerala and
he get the maximum business for Vasthu consultation In Kerala.Almost everyone desirous of Vasthu
compliance simply believes him and he due to his ignorance advice them wrong positions.Whatever
plan of the house you take to him ,he will say that Vasthu is wrong.He has got a drawing section who
will redraw the plan and will charge for redrawing the plan.Only if you redraw then only you can get
money from the client.So he make money by misguiding people.

This Marine Engineer client of mine got the plan redrawn  by the Namboodiri resulting in wrong
Vasthu positions.After few years he started getting wrong effects in the house and then he called
another Vasthu expert who fortunately was knowledgeable on Vasthu.He told my client about wrong
positions of rooms and then he called me.Fortunately I had copy of original plan with me untampered
by the great Vasthu Namboodiri.So the new expert told my client that all changes made by the
Namboodiri was wrong.I had several clients who go to him after getting plan from me and then he
changes positions of rooms.Luckily in the recent past he made only dimension changes for a Plan
and kept room positions as I kept.I do not know What happened to him.

Then there is this so called story of “Chuttalavu” and “Maranachuttu” talked about by our local Asaris
which do not have any mention in Vasthu books.My attempts to learn this from old Asaris was not
producing any effect as none of them was willing to part with the secret.Finally I got a fellow who
after making me promise not to tell the secret to any one told me the great story of Marana Chuttu.I
have not told anyone this secret even after years.This deals with chuttalavu or perimeter of plan of
the house.Take this measurement in meters.Convert the measurement into old measurement
system in Kerala.Instead of feet introduced by British people and meter introduced in India after
independence,they used Kol as measurement unit.One kol is 0.72 meters.If you convert perimeter of
a house into kol and divide it by a certain number, the result should not be a whole number.If it is so
the owner of the house will die immediately after completing the house.This is called Maranachuttu.If
it is exactly in between two numbers say something like 3.5,then the perimeter of the house is
supposed to be highly auspicious.

I do not understand the logic of this.It is as good as assigning divinity to the measurement system
called Kol and Angulam which cannot be true and hence this story of maranachuttu does not have
any scientific basis and can only be a lie by these crooks.These local self proclaimed experts of
Vasthu insists on having this safe perimeter for each room also and I do not follow these as in my
opinion,this has no justifiable basis of correctness.
