Vastu Shastra
Vastu Shastra is the ancient Indian architectural science that aligns physical spaces with universal energy. Its purpose is to create harmony, prosperity, health, and spiritual balance through correct placement of structures, rooms, and elements.
When a home or workplace follows Vastu principles, energy flows smoothly, removing obstacles, boosting mental clarity, and enhancing well-being.
π What is Vastu Based On?
Vastu is built on natural laws like magnetic fields, gravitational forces, sunlight, directions, and the five elements of nature. The core belief is: βAs the environment, so the mind. As the mind, so life.β
