| Resources on Vastu Shastra | | | | Vastu Shastra Vastu Shastra, the combined Art and Science of divining a sense of place, have been developed since vedic times. Vastu Shastra is the means of getting in touch with the spirit of the earth, learning how to find were one belongs and consequently understanding how one behaves in relation to the rest of nature.
Vastu Shastra provides extensive knowledge about design principles and space clearing. Collectively, these underlying rhythms are sympathetic to human needs, enhance good health and prosperity, are known to radiate positive energy, and represent ecologically sustainable environments.
Vastu Shastra states that everything is fundamentally "shabda" or sound, which is the basic pulse of energy which is then woven into design.
Vastu Shastra combines yoga theory, ayurvedic medicine, astrology, music, art, architecture, ritual and colour into principles that are used for Space Clearing and Design. |
