Vastu Shastra Ancient Steps for Home Automation

Ancient manuals of architecture in Sanskrit is Known as Vastu Shastra. As long as faith and belief exist, there will be a sense of belief on Vastu Shastra. These books provided guidelines to construct temples, homes, and to develop townships. Yes, some may not agree with these Shastras but equally, there is a majority who sense faith on these scriptures. Though you may take lightly and disagree to follow the same, but remember if you do so it may affect the resale value of your property.

Over the year weather, whatever the perceptions be, people are developing the properties in Bangalore according to the Shastras. If at all they are purchasing a developed flat or apartment they are getting it renovated through Vastu renovation services.  Well, there are many sets of rules and principles one must follow to abide Vastu Shastra.

Though it’s quite a complicated theory, the information in this post is simplified and accordingly has everything you should know when you’re looking to build, purchase or renovate the houses.
Vastu Shastra Ancient Steps for Home Automation

Steps 1 - Things to do before construction:

Performing Bhoomi Pooja i.e. worshipping the land is recommended before starting construction of the house. Usually, this pooja is performed along with some construction materials. This pooja is recognized as an auspicious commencement and also considered that it will avoid all the present and upcoming hurdles.

Step 2 - Ideal House Entrance:

To bring in the positive energy into the house right from the sunrise Shastras recommend keeping the house entrance facing towards east direction. It also brings the light along with the energy. If you have trouble in keeping the entrance in the east, then you may also keep it towards the northeast direction which almost gives you the same benefit.

Step 3 - Location for Kitchen:

The kitchen shouldn’t be in the direction of the main door of the house (i.e. entrance). For having prosperity in your home, the ideal location of the kitchen should be in the southeast corner. Also, note that you should supposedly cook food by facing the east direction. One of the Shastras says that having the kitchen in the mentioned form would avoid hazards.

Step 4 - Location for Master Bedroom:

A home which is facing towards east direction, the master bedroom should be situated at the southwest corner. If you follow and build your home according to step 2 and step 3, then it’s guaranteed that your sleep will not be disturbed by the noise of cooking. The shape of the room should have to be square or rectangular, which is mostly recommended. This also gives you a pleasure of living in a modern lifestyle.

Step 5 – Location of Toilet:

At times ‘vastu for a toilet,’ this act can make you laugh as it seems to be bit funny. Fun apart, this aspect is also as vital as the other aspects. From the perception of aesthetics as well as health, toilets should have to construct in the North –West corner of the room or in the North West corner of the building. If you couldn’t build that way alternate is to construct it in the direction of the south-east. Never have a kitchen, toilet and pooja rooms in adjacent which I believe no one would do sensibly. 


These are just a few examples on how you can use Vastu for a better pleasure of comfort living. There are enormous other aspect which comes under it. Vastu Shastra can also be said as the ancient home automation guide. The present time, we refer science and technology to automate our houses but during that old days, people used to refer Vastu Shastra. One cannot find a reason to deny either of these as both senses helpful and beneficial to lead a life with comfort.
