Ayadi Calculation

Ayadi calculation is one of the most important part in Sthapatya Veda, Ayadi
Calculation is also called as AyadiShadvarga or the building formulae. The
Scriptures as well as the ancient architects (Sthapatis) considered the
dwellings as a living organism, irrespective of temple, residential homes,
palaces etc.
The Land also known as Ksetra and the dwellings was built in proper rhythm
& proportion for the residents to live in harmony with nature. When houses
were built using these Ayadi formulae, they were said to give the residents
spirituality, health, wealth and prosperity.
There are different calculations done in Vaastu for different purposes using
AyadiShadvarga to check the energy suitability of the residents with the land
& building by taking into account the Nakshatra or the birth star of the
owner, these calculations are used for Town or city planning, Temples,
Residences, Apartments, Commercial & Industrial buildings.
There are six aspects to be examined under Ayadi
1. Aaya – Income / benefits
2. Vyaya – Expenditure
3. Yoni – Direction indicating the flow of energy (Prana)
4. Varam – Weekdays
5. Nakshatra – Star
6. Amsa – Quality / feature
The Process of calculation for each ayadi
Perimeter of Building x 8

Aaya = 12
Perimeter of Building x 9

Vyaya = 10
Perimeter of Building x 3

Yoni = 8
Perimeter of Building x 9

Varam = 7
Perimeter of Building x 8

Nakshatra 27
Perimeter of Building x 4

Amsam = 9
The Aaya (Income) should always be more than Vyaya (Expenditure). If
Vyaya is more than Aaya, then the residents will always have financial
problems.
The Yoni Should always have reminder in odd numbers i.e 1, 3, 5, 7. Refer
the below Yoni table for benefits.

Yoni calculation is an important aspect in Ayadi calculation, based on the
Yoni the direction of the plot & Building is decided. Dhwaja Yoni is
considered the best Yoni in Sthapatya Veda. Another important point to be
observed is that all the auspicious Yonis are in line with Cardinal direction of
North, South, East & West. The Plot or the building with diagonal directions
& entrance from North-East, South-East, South-West, North-West is
inauspicious & hence rejected.
Varam with 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 is auspicious
There are 27 Nakshatras in Vedic astrology, the nakshatras with 2, 4, 6, 8, 9
as remainders are auspicious.
Amsam or Quality with the remainder 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9 are considered
auspicious.
The above calculations are performed by an expert Vaastu sthapathis, before
one starts construction of any form of building, it is recommened that You
consult an expert to attain both spiritual & material benefits.
