Everyone dreams of owning a home. To make this dream a reality, we should first consult an experienced architect and plan the house. We should then approach a good Vasthusasthram consultant and adopt necessary changes in the plan of the prospective site. |
| |
| Some points to be kept in mind while planning your home |
|
|
There are eight directions - East, West, North, South, Northeast, Northwest, Southeast and southwest. |
|
|
|
There are specific positions for everything including jewelry and money. |
|
|
|
While sleeping, the head should be placed towards the South for good health or the East to be blessed by God. Never place your head towards the North. |
|
|
|
Kitchens, bedrooms, dining rooms, prayer rooms, store rooms etc. have specific positions. |
|
|
|
All plants have medicinal value if used correctly. In the garden, plants like the holy Basil (tulsi), Neem, the Bael (vilwa) etc have to be placed as per Vasthusasthra. |

| Bed Rooms |
Everyone sleeps for an average of 8 hours per a day. i.e. 1/3 of a day. This would mean that we spend roughly 240 hours of a month sleeping, that is 10 days. In a year, we would sleep for 120 days or 4 months and that would amount to 20 years of sleep in 60 years! Hence the bedroom is the most important room in a house. |
| |
| Kitchen |
We start our day going to the kitchen early morning to fix breakfast. The kitchen should face the east so that the sun's first rays enter it . The powerful sunrise during Utharayanam can only be effective if the kitchen faces the southeast with a window to the east. |
