Vastu Shastra
Vastu has been a part of our culture since centuries. In the other parts of the world people practice it as Feng Shui , Loshu, Dowsing etc. Vastu is a science of making Buildings, Furniture, Temples, Cities & Towns, Forts and even Chariots as per the Vedic texts, proof of which still stands strong today. Vastu was a way of living life as man used to live in consonance with nature. Lot of text was written to support this science but with India being conquered by Mughals and then Britishers later, most of this was destroyed in North India. But in Southern India Vastu practices and text survived the onslaught. Today we see the revival of the ancient Science as people realize that disconnect of man with nature has created imbalances in the built environment leading to ill health and sick buildings. The study of Architecture and Interior Design remains incomplete without the additional knowledge of Vastu. Vastu should be reinterpreted in today’s context as materials and technologies to build our buildings have changed. Vastu should not be looked upon with superstition but its underlying tenets be understood as per today’s requirements.
