"Vaastu Shastra" the vedic architecture integrates
the science of Ayurveda and Astrology by linking them with human lives.
"Vaastu" Combines the earth's magnetic fields, the influence of
planets and other celestial bodies along with cosmic rays and plays a vital role
in happy family life and prosperity of business.
Vastu Shilpa
shastra, the ancient mystic science and art of designing and
construction of buildings finds its origin Staptya Veda which in turn is
part of Atharva Veda, one of the four vedas.
In today's age & time
with growing urbanisation, paucity of space and more significantly the rampant
sense of faithlessness in anything that modern science fails to explain, it is
practically impossible to even dream of a home or office confirming to the laws
of "Vaastu".
