The spiritual institution is a place of
training for suitably equipped temperaments and mature
minds towards the acquisition of the higher knowledge
of human life. This specialised knowledge is not like
one of the sciences or the arts taught in modern
colleges or universities, among which a student can
prefer anyone to the exclusion of others, but it is
the central art and science which enables one to
recognise the true meaning of life in general.
Spiritual life is not one of the ways of living or
even one of the stages of life, but that general
background of motive and understanding which vitalises
all stages and gives life and meaning to every way of
thinking and mode of activity.
A spiritual institute is acknowledged for
imparting knowledge to its students and which is why it is
important that this place suits everybody so that one can
concentrate spiritually and mentally. An apt religious or
spiritual institute helps imbibing knowledge properly, while if
such place is not Vastu compliant then students learning there may
not be able to take up studies ingeniously. To avoid any adverse
affect of Non-Vastu site on students reading in spiritual
institute, it is recommended to construct any religious or
spiritual institute with Vastu set of norms so that students do
not feel over-stressed and take up the knowledge with soul and
mind.
Here are some tips of Vastu for spiritual institute:

facing towards East or North.
