Of all the rooms in the house, the bedroom is the most lived in. it is here that rest and recuperation take place. We spend nearly one third of the day in the bedroom. The master bedroom should be in the South-west corner of thehouse as laid down in vastushastra.
The South-west direction is the inert element of the earth. It means stability and immobility. Science teaches us that heavier the substance, greater will be the force (moment of inertia) required to move it. Similarly greater the inertness, greater will be the stability. Because of the South-west location of the bedroom, the head of the family will have peace and stability, confidence and ability to dominate. Such a bedroom leads to healthy body and strong mind.
Bathroom
Toilet
Prayer room
Ten most important elements are taken into consideration while planning a house and one of the most vital is the Prayer Room which has been given more importance. The correct place for the Prayer Room is the North-East so that while praying one faces North-East. But if this is not possible then any location between North and East will do.
Brahmatatva
One ninth or 11.2% of the total area of a house is called brahmatatva or the core centre of the vastu. Just as the navel has an important role in our body, the core centre of a house is also important.
The core centre should be open and not cluttered with any beam, column or heavy item. Pressure on the navel upsets the body functions and similarly pressure on the core centre brings about lack of co-ordination and disharmony in the life of the inmates. |
