India is the mother of vastu as our
saints formulate principles of vastu here. Vastu was
written down thousands of years ago where our sages
kept in mind the effect of energies and sunlight and
balance all the five elements in a manner to have the
maximum benefit out of it.
Vastu
Shilpa Shastra, the ancient mystic science and the art
of designing and constructing buildings finds its
origin in Stapatya Veda, which in turns is a part of
Atharvana Veda, one of the four Vedas.
According to
modern historians Ferguson, Havell and Cunningham,
this science developed during the period of 6000 BC
and 3000 BC.
Proofs of vaastu shastra can be found during the
time of Ramayan and Mahabharat. In the cities of Mohanjodaro and
Harappa the application of vaastu shastra can be seen. In the
Matsya Purana, seventeen preceptors of Vaastu have been mentioned.
These principles, called Vastu Shastra, were
evolved over thousands of years out of experience and foresight of
ancient Sages of India and are very valuable for the well being of
mankind. According to Shastras, if we worship, revere and respect
the lords of these eight directions, they will shower on us their
blessings and benefits. Our saints have searched vastu shastra; we
are only Researching it.
The following lines depicts the importance of
vastu shastra :
Meaning - Because of VASTU SHASTRA, the whole universe gets good
health, happiness and all round prosperity. Human beings attain
divinity with this knowledge. Followers of VASTU SHASTRA get not
only worldly pleasure but also experience heavenly bliss.
With the
above shloka, it is very much clear that VASTU SHASTRA is
universal. It is not confined to any particular group of people in
the development of all human being irrespective of any caste,
creed or religion.
