Vedic Vastushastra: A Scientific Approach
by Dr. Manjul Kant Dwivedi, Ph. D.
Often during the discussion of vastushastra many questions arise out of mind. Although most of people consider it as superstition years before. Yet after knowing the fact the opinions of the people turned into great acceptance.
In fact Vastushastra is a huge collection of the ethics mentioned in the huge collection of the ethics mentioned in the sculptures written by Vishwakarma of ‘Devas’ and Maya’ of Danwas- great architectures of Vadic period.
‘Nature is environment of earth and root cause of life –existence. Cosmic-electric –magnetic energy and earthly energy assist to maintain the existence of life. It is most inevitable to mingle external and internal energies to keep helpful of life by establishing the continuity between land building and nature for the sake of human-being. In fact this is the exact place where Vastu appears in the scenario. Thus we can say that Vastu Shastra is a science of building-construction as well as an art to establish the Harmon between excreted energies by five elements (Panch-Tatva) and human-made environment. In this we can say that Vastu-Vigyan (Science) is a vast study of vital energy and environmentally energy.
In such situation it is very necessary understand the base of energy because the same base is also the ground of . The energy is the form of making any action or inner capacity. It consists of infinite power for generation and destruction.
Our body is the best medium to understand this particular energy with its power. The reasons behind is our energy has two kinds-Physical Energy and internal energy. The first one provides us force dynamicness and second one prosperous us with the skill of thought power to commence and execute the acts. The energy is root cause of all the changes. Vastu has its own body construction which is called “Vastu-Purush”.
According to geological researches many type of energies occur from the earth. Some of them are positive-energies but most of them are consist of negative and magnetic-radiations. They are fatal for human life. Ayurved is formed for the energic balancement of human body and ‘Sthapatya Veda’ for the balance of environment. In fact “Sthapatya-Ved is also known as ‘VASTU-SHASTRA’.
Vastu-Shastra is such an art of building construction in which a specific combination is settled between excreting energies of land and environment of earth. Since our solar zone is completely full of electric magnetic waves and our body is also consist of electro-magnetic waves which causes our heart, mind and sense –organs active. At present the waves are transmitted from one place to another place through atmosphere without stars. These waves are invisible and spreader all around our body. It has come to know through scientific inventions that such electro magnetic waves cause mental anxiety. They also cause the diseases like various kinds of allergies, skin-diseases, lack of sleeping. Over sleeping, depression, cramp in body etc.
