If we look a few years before you will notice that almost every place is built with Vastu rules. People have been following Vastu concepts for thousands of years. Vastu parameters are determined based on different energy fields from different directions. And it affects various aspects of life such as health, finance, relationships, and profession. Vastu concepts are to be followed in both residential and commercial places.
Nowadays, we are facing problems in our day-to-day lives related to health, money, and even relationships like an increase in the number of divorces. Because in this busy life, we have forgotten our roots, and we don’t even have the time to follow the basic Vastu rules that has a huge impact on our lives.
IS 100% COMPLIANCE OF VASTU POSSIBLE?
75% of Vastu compliance nowadays is considered good as we all know that in this era of high-rise buildings and small houses, 100% compliance is next to impossible. Less than 50% compliance is not suggested. Architects follow some basic Vastu guidance while constructing, some rules you can follow while doing interiors that in total will make a great result
IMPORTANCE OF VASTU
We can predict the positive and negative impacts of our home/office on our lives simply by looking into the directions. Every corner of the house has a significant role therefore if it’s planned properly like where to put drinking water or freshwater resources, meditation/prayer room, flower pot, etc can have great significance on the members of the family. You might have heard some instances from your known ones who have faced a lot of problems after shifting to their new home or might have seen some positive changes in terms of health or professional life after leaving their old home.
It’s not a joke, you can see in your home itself that if you have an under-house construction in the south zone, then most probably the women in the house will suffer from various problems and if you are sleeping while facing the north direction then indigestion and heart problems will be a big trouble to you.

HOW TO CHECK THE DIRECTIONS OF ANY PLACE
Some people ask us questions like “How can we determine the directions of a place”? It’s a simple process, you just have to stand in the middle of your house or any space facing the direction where the sun rises. Then open the compass and see the directions, this way you can determine the direction rightly.

Vaastu shastra is a holistic approach aligning structures as per the directions with universal energies. Vastu connects man to nature. Everything comprises of the panch mahabhootas- AIR, FIRE, WATER, SPACE, and EARTH. The universe sends us the energies which if used can give us the positive and best results. How can you expect the results or changes in your life if you are not even following them? When there is a lot to achieve and gather for free that God has gifted us, why settle for less? Go, make some changes in directions, and see the positivity all around.
A HOME IS A PLACE WHERE THE ENVIRONMENT SHOULD BE RELAXING AND POSITIVE NOT JUST IN TERMS OF DESIGN BUT IN VASTU ASPECTS TOO.
