| Vastu |
Vastushastra essentially deals with practice of architecture and building / construction science,
but it touches every facet of life on this earth and the universe. The ever present link between
man and the cosmos is the basic theme of Vastushastra. Vastushastra principles provide guidance
for making optimum use of cosmic energy to achieve cosmic harmony. Pyramids, mirrors, bells, gems,
precious stones, metals, colours, yantras,trees, flowers serve as catalysts in reestablishing the connection between man and the divine energy. With all its sublime and mysterious ways, the basic parameters used in Vastushastra compliant
designs are: geomagnetic flux, solar energy, sound energy, and water sources. Vastushastra has a scientific background.
The concept of dik-kal (dik=direction, kal=time) is reflected in modern science in terms of physics of space-time.
Mass-energy equivalence is the backbone of all Vastu remedial measures. But this concept is now identified only with Prof.
Albert Einstein on account of the famous equation E=mc˛. It is time Vastushastra is made free of its mystic garb and
developed as a logical and scientific discipline.
