Vastu Shastra is the most ancient science of architecture, which takes us back to the Vedic ages. It is composed of certain rules and regulations, which were known to have been set down by the sages of those times and which were expected to be followed religiously in order to avoid any sort of negative or evil influences. But, today it is looked upon as a highly evolved, comprehensive building philosophy in which directions and shapes are the most vital aspects of designing. Since directions are at the base of the Vaastu shastra rules, your being consciousness of your vaastu related principles will make you use the right direction for the most suitable use. You just have to understand that any corner of your flat will not be suitable as your bedroom. Neither can the furthest end of the drawing room be your work place at home. Vastu shastra principles should, therefore, be followed before a building or house is planned. The placement of the

aquarium or the structure of the kitchen and living room must be in the proper direction so that you can inspire the lucky vibes that will bring success and prosperity in your life. To be simple, vaastu shastra is using the proper directions of your house for getting the strongest possible energy vibes. Even if you have the desire to have a garden in front of your house or place some plant tubs in the balcony, it is better to check if you are using the right directions. Placing the phone in the right direction can increase the possibility of receiving good news.

But the fact remains that the vaastu shastra principles are applicable for any kind of construction - either for the residential purpose or for the commercial or business purpose.

Vastu is the science of direction that combines the paanchbhootas - the five elements of vaastu - and as well balances them with human beings and the material. The world comprises of five basic elements, also known as the Paanchbhootas. They are Earth, Water, Air, Fire and Space. Out of the nine planets, our planet has life because of the presence of these five elements. The five elements can be briefly discussed below. 1. Earth (Bhumi) The third planet in the solar system, the Earth, is a big magnet with North and South poles as centre of attraction. The Earth s magnetic field and gravitational force lays its influence upon everything, whether living or nonliving.

2. Water (Jal) It forms a part of every plant and animal and is represented by rain, river, and sea and is in the form of liquid. 3. Air (Vaayu) As a life supporting element, air is very powerful life source. Human physical comfort values are directly and sensitively dependent on correct humidity, air flow, temperature of air, air pressure, air composition and its content. 4. Fire (Sun) (Surya) It represents light and heat without which the life will extinct. All the days and nights, seasons, energy, enthusiasm, passion, vigor is because of light and heat only.

5. Space (Akash) The shelter provider to all the above elements. All of the Paanchbhootas have strong influence on the energy vibes around the living as well as the non-living entities on earth.
