Vastu design books start with the description of the five elements of nature called Panchbhootas - namely - Earth (Prithvi), Fire (Agni), Water (Jal), Air (Vayu), and Space (Aakash). The Vastu basics begin with selection of a plot for construction. A rectangular or square plot is beneficial as per Vaastu guidelines whereas a triangular plot could be inauspicious. A preferable one would be a plot in east to west direction. All Vastu books recommend open spaces to be maximum in the north and east directions. The trees if placed around the building are recommended in the west direction.
The site planning for a plot starts with a Vastu diagram or design chart called the Vaastu Mandala. This diagram gives exact demarcations of the Vastu Purusha Mandala and helps the Vaastu consultant in giving you the basic architecture and design for the site and also remedies of any Vastu Dosha prevailing in the directions of the plot. Ancient Indian architecture was largely based on Vastu Shastra and astrology. The legacy continued in the basic site planning and construction of all temples in India. In today's world Vastu and Feng Shui (a Chinese counterpart of Vastu Shastra) have gained popularity. You will find many e-books on Vastu that guide you about the basics and Vastu principles with effective Vastu Tips to bring prosperity into your living. | | | An interesting thins that needs mention in context to the Vastu books about basics of Vastu is the special Vastu Remedies . One is the Vastu Ganesha - it is an idol of lord Ganesha with the trunk pointing left. It is considered as an effective protection against any Vaastu Dosha. Certain objects like pyramid, mirror and more have special positioning in the house as per Vaastu. Mirrors are not recommended in kitchens. Vastu Shastra also gives a color chart signifying each of the eight directions and thereby suggesting maximum energy infusing color to be placed in that direction. Study of the Vaastu principles and the various aspects like Vaastu Dosha, remedies, Vastu Mandala and more enables you to effectively imply the very essence of Vastu for betterment of yourself and your family.
