HISTORY OF VASTU

VEDAS - SUPREMELY BEAUTIFUL LITERATURE ON THIS EARTH

Describes all aspects on human life, laws and regulations to be observed ,enabling happy, healthy prosperous moral life.

Vedas are timeless Vedas are of divine origin Vedas are composed on the base of

calculations ,and logic .They are scientific and universal

HISTORY OF VASTU

YAJURVEDA

STHAPATYA VEDA

STRUCTURAL ENGINEERIIN

G

MUHURTAMARTAND Guide to all rites,rituals as worship of

structures or land ,worship done done on first time entering the house

Installation of the ‘vastupurush’ These rites and rituals are also observed to

ensure happiness and prosperity

STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING Vast subject which includes ‘analysis of

land’, ‘construction parameters’, and even the system of selecting materials.

In ‘Matsya Puran’ says :Shiva and Andhakasur were engaged in combat and from their sweat a queer figure in human form came into existence.

This figure started devouring the living and the dead on the battle.to prevent this havoc Shiva held the figure under his heels

On advice of Brahma the figure was given the name ‘Vastupurush’. He was directed to stay on Earth to protect human beings under

evil spirits . Vastupurush is shown as lying face face down with his head

towards north east and legs towards south west. Brahmas place is at naval therefore known as Brahmatatva

HUMAN MATRIX There are two basic ways to achieve

health- 1.Outer pole technique 2.Inner pole technique  Outer Pole Technique works from outside

or physically, like allopathy. It starts to work from outside or on the body level and then goes inwards to bring about health.  

Inner Pole Technique works from inside like meditation, yoga naturopathy, Reiki or homoeopathy. They start to work from inside or at the vital force and then gradually on the physical level and brings about health.

ANATOMY

Sensing can be understood in two ways: 1.Through gross/physical anatomy 2.Through subtle/unseen anatomy

All of us know some basic physical anatomy. We have read it in our science books in school. Here let us make a simple effort to understand its deeper anatomy.  

5 LAYERED HUMAN BEING

PHYSICAL ANATOMY A human being is part

consciousness (Atma - soul) wrapped in 5 layers known as Panchkosha inVedanta. The layers are

Physical Body (Annmaya Kosha),

Energy Body (Pranamaya Kosha),

Mind Body (Manomaya Kosha), Intuition Body (Vigyanmaya

Kosha), Joy Body (Anandmaya Kosha).

PHYSICAL BODY (ANNMAYA KOSH)

Annmaya Kosha is the outer most and physical form of a human being- that is the human body. TheAnnmaya Kosha is made up of 5 elements (Air, Fire, Earth, Space and Water).

It is nurtured and sustained by food (Ann), that’s why this is called Annmaya Kosha.

In Ayurveda disease is recognised as imbalance of tridosha - Vata (Air + Space), Pitta (Fire) and Kapha (Water + Earth)].

human beings create the structures in the form of buildings to perform certain functions. And these structures become the living or working environment for human beings.

ENERGY BODY(PRANMAYA KOSH)

The Pranamaya Kosha is energy body depicted by Kundalini, sun and moon channels and 7 Chakras along the spinal column.

Each one of the 7 Chakras is responsible for controlling different organs in the human body at conscious and sub-conscious levels of mind.

When awareness is extended to the super conscious state then these Chakras open up to perceive the new realities of universe and start illuminating by healing all the body functions.

JOY BODY(ANANDMAYA KOSH) Anandmaya Kosha is part

consciousness (Atma) carrying the core desire with a purpose to manifest and experience joy.

This innermost core body of one's being has a pure part of Universal Consciousness (Parma Atma) experienced as eternal joy or bliss.

Other functions of this Kosha (body) are co-creation like the Creator himself, peak experiences of super consciousness and sexual ecstasy (beyond normal sexual pleasures).

INTUTION BODY(VIGYANMAYA KOSH)

Vigyanmaya Kosha is the second innermost layer which is responsible for all the new knowledge and intuitive functioning of human beings.

The other functions are ordinary awareness for day to day intuitive working, which facilitates you in deciding what to do next and how to do it.

Only from this Kosha do you get intuitive solutions in intense situations when the logical mind is not able to answer your questions.

The natural function of healing inside the human body is also governed by this Kosha.

MIND BODY(MANOMAYA KOSH)

Manomaya Kosha is the domain of functions of the human mind.

This is the central layer among the 5Kosha. The function of this Kosha is primarily to receive information through 5 senses and process that information for manifestation of core purpose. 

Manomaya Kosha has 3 layers as recognized by contemporary psychology.

They are conscious mind, sub-conscious super conscious state of mind. In Medical Science these states are studied in

brain wave theory and known as Beta, Alpha, Theta and Delta states of brain activity.

STATES OF MIND The conscious state of mind is

responsible for perception through the 5 sense organs

The sub-conscious mind receives information from the conscious mind and stores the complete information.

The deeper sub-conscious or super conscious state of mind is when a person is aware at Theta and Delta brain waves. In this state of mind person gives instant healing or give some innovative outputs.

SHAPES SYMBOLS Symbols are the formulator

(sutradhar ) of the conscious and the sub-conscious mind.

And man has had this innate knowledge from the very beginning, right with the creation of the world.

According to linguists, development of language has taken place from symbols only. Symbols are an integral part of human life and mind, even today.

CPU AND HUMAN BRAIN Conscious mind is the monitor and sub-

conscious mind the CPU (Central Processing Unit).

The CPU works according to the information registered on the monitor.

A computer program is like a set of instructions, written in that particular language.

Similarly, the conscious mind gathers information through the five senses (Eye, Ear, Nose, Tongue, Skin),

visuals through the eyes in form of paintings and colours,

sounds in the form of music or noise through the ears touch from textures through skin.

IMPORTANCE OF SHAPES When placed in a building, a symbol

represents something - it says something to our sub-conscious mind, which then begins to act accordingly.

This activates the natural Earth energies to generate a specific effect towards the fulfillment of our desires - once these energies sense our desires, they program our sub-conscious mind accordingly and thus set us moving towards the achievement of our goals.

Thus by placing an appropriate symbol in the appropriate Zone related to our wish, we can program our Space for its fulfillment.

For example, for a loving relationship with your spouse, put a symbol of Love Birds in the Zone of Relationship.

SYMMETRY Symmetry is the basis of order

which presents itself. Order is the state of regulatory

arrangements or rhythmic process.

It is the basis of creation in nature and man.

Symmetry is omnipresent .It is visible as well as invisible

Visible symmetry which we see around us

Invisible symmetry –Magnetic Field-Earth is a big magent

We exist in symmetry and symmetry exist in us

BILATERAL SYMMETRY This type of

symmetry is seen in the objects in which one half is similar to another half.

In bilateral symmetry it is the congruence and periodicity of the object that involves us

ROTATIONAL SYMMETRY

It involves movement of a different kind where in object pivots on a central point.

Movement of electrons rotating around atom creates balance in atom.

Rotation of planets create cosmic energy of certain wavlength,which reach the earth and react with us in particualr manner

SPIRAL SYMMETRY Spirals are symbol of

continuous movement. They constitue and are

constituted by continuous movement of energy.

The DNA(Deoxyribo nucleic acid)is the base of existance .

Chromosomes are responsible for species differentiation.Represents continuous movement

BRANCHING SYMMETRY

Branching teaches us propoagation with nature and it is how our mind perceives it.

Branching is the oderly process of division.

Anything that produces balance and harmony in naure is symmetrical

DIVINE ORDER The symmetry and asymmetry

constitute the foundation of relativity, quantum physics,mechanics,solid state physics.atomic ,subatomic and particle physics.

Above statement is well understood in chinese philosophy called ‘Taoism’ ,in which order of nature was an order of constant change of energy.

As they believed vital energy flows everywhere,which itself is a symmetry which is omnipresent and omnipotent,which is highest form of energy called bliss.

When we think in terms of rhythm and symmetry we change our perception ,creating harmony in our lives

EFFECTS OF ENERGY

Man makes structures and buildings to perform certain functions in a building.

As soon as space is enclosed, it starts behaving as a scaled down model of the Universe.

Different energy-fields emerge automatically. These energy-fields react with human consciousness. They alter, blend and redirect consciousness as per their own attributes.

This is how knowledge of vastu is needed to create harmony

THANK YOU

Have A very Positive week ahead full of good thoughts and good wishes
