  5. The Earth rotates on its orbit, the side which is exposed to sum will have light (day) and the other side is dark side (without light is night). The formation of day and night is due to Sun

  17. Some nakshatras are ado mukhi, ( down wards), Urdwa mukhi ( face upwards). Some nakshatras are fixed, movable, ugra and mrudhu nature. The nature of the nakshatra will help us in fixing Muhurtha. Based on the activity to be under taken, muhurtha will be fixed in that nakshatra
  18. Digging of wells, , revers,under earth works will be started in ado mukhi ( down facing) nakshatra. In urdwa mukh nakshatras, flag, dwaja, roof etc

  43. Anatomy knowledge plays a key role in medical astrology and in vastu. Human body is divided into multiple body parts and they are ruled by planets / nakshatras. In Vastu, the site is designed based on vastu purusha body parts. Any defect in those areas of vastu purusha would impact on the concerned body parts of the dweller. The co –relation between vastu purusha anga and human beings.
  44. Vastu Devata is Surya and the astrology deals with Sun as major planet

Chaturvidha Vastu

Chaturvida Vastu:- Lesson 2

Vastu is the place where gods and human beings dwelling place . As this vastu depends up on earth, its called as Vastuvu.

Vastu is of four types as per Maya. They are as follows

1, Bhumi — Land /Place

  1. Prasada— Palace
  2. Yana— Conveyance
  3. Sayana—Furniture

Bhumi:- It indicates the land/site that is to be acquired for the construction of Residential property.

This involves the process of Acquiring site , checking its characteristics, Sides and corners of Land, color, sound, smell and taste( Kshetra Parignana) . The land is called Vastu. The constructions made on site are called Viseha Vastu

  • There are sixteen types of shapes of sites . There is a process to identify the suitability of land, veedhi soola, adjustment of compass etc.
  • Availability of water is also considered. Jalargala method is used
  • Bhu shalya method is used to identify the defects of land.
  • Site should be of Rectangle or Square shaped.irregular shaped lands should be avoided
  • Site near Cattle sheds, battle grounds, sites with temple shadows, Close to water, In center of village, dry lands should be avoided
  • Rectangular sites with length of North- South should be greater than EAST-west length. slight Increase in NE side gives prosperity, name, fame, progeny.Decrease in South East gives prosperity and wealth.
  • Square shaped land is always preferred.
  • Irregular shaped sites like triangle, cart shaped etc should be avoided. Site on Mountain top, defective cornered sites, lands with cracks, sites behind shiva and Vishnu temple, near river bed, near cruel animal dwelling, burial ground, with shalyas should be avided.

 

 

Prasada:- The construction of residential house with in the four territories  of the site.

Prasadas of two types . 1, manava grihas 2. Devata grihas

Manava grihas  can be Eka shala, dwi shala, trishala,chastushala, Shala means  house for residential purpose . Some times  inner parts of homes  are also  called as Shala  like vanta shala( kitchen), goshala( Cow shed), shayana shala( bed room).  All these various shals are part of griha. Devata grihas are termed as Alayamu, Mandiramu, Agara

Eka sila houses can be constructed by all types of varnas, asramas, temples. Multi story buildings can be used by only few classes of society.  For Dwishila, trishila and chatusila  constructions different rules were laid for human dwelling and temples.

Yana:-The transporting mediums like chariots, Vehicles used by human beings

There are three types of transports now . Land, sea and air transports.

Road transporting vehicles are widely discussed in the shastras. Chariots with machinery  were described as Rasa yantras. Chariots with horses were also described well. The vehicle of Nala in Mahabharata was described as  faster  moving vehicle than mind. Even aswini kumars have very fast moving chariot.

In Samarangana sutradharam, there was a description for fire ignited vehicles. There were also some ships which can travel inside  and above water level.  Even vehicles travelling in Air were also described. We know Pushpakavimanam. Bharadwaja vimanika sastra also very popular.

 

Sayana:- the furniture that’s being used for relaxing and comfort . it includes, chairs, sofas, beds,thrones. Shila sastra explained details. We know Vikramarka throne. Hamsa tulika,  beds in different names.  Proper seating arrangements were mentioned in sabha. In Mahabharata  also there were mentioning of different types of beds, sofas, chairs in Maya sabha.

 

 

Bhooshodana:- Bhoo Pariskha

 

land can be tested based on rasa varna,sparsha gandhai ( taste, color, touch and smell). Taste can be sweet, bitter , hot and spicy. Smell  of ghee, rice, blood and toddy  can be accepted for construction.

Dig a pit of 1 meter deep and pour water and leave it overnight. If traces of water or mud remains in next day then Land is considered good for construction

If a pit is dug with 1 ½ ft and filled with same mud. Any left over mud or sufficient mud indicates good for construction

Soil can be of 4 colors . White, Red, green black. ( White for intelligent class, Red for  Warriors, Green for Business class and Black for hardworking people.)

Dark, multi colored/smoky soils are not fit for construction. Hard surfaced, too hot or too cold soils are also not fit for construction.

Shalyas ( impure bodies) in soil causes lot of health hazards.

 

The effect on environment – construction of house at large gathering places is avoided ( temples)/ mid of the village.

The physical condition of construction of site— the soil can be tested for Color, smell, taste , touch and appearance. If it has any cracks or rat holes, irregular level, then site should be avoided.

Health factors need to be considered for house construction. Proper air and light should be available to this site.

The house should be beautiful and well decorated. Vastu advises to have a decent and good looking house

It should fulfill needs of dwellers. The house should have sufficient space for various rooms like, kitchen, bed room, hall, dining, bathrooms etc.

The front portion of home is considered as Deva bhaga ( guest room, study room), second portion of house is Gandharva bagha ( bed rooms, hall, place for celebration). Last portion of home is called Manushya bhaga ( kitchen, toilets)

House should constructed in a such a way that there wont be any problems with Geo physical energies/magnetic energy ( N and S Poles) .

Impact of sun and planets on home should be studied while constructing house. Construction is prohibited during nights
