What is Vasthu Sastra?
• Vasthu Sastra, better known as Indian Feng Shui is an
ancient science of construction which is over 5,000 years old.
• It can be used in modern times to achieve balance with
cosmic forces to attain harmony, good health, prosperity and
happiness.
What is Vasthu based on?
• It is based on arrangements and balancing of the five
elements in their proper order and proportions.
• It focuses on the placement of weights on the floor of a
property.
When is Vasthu required?
• Vasthu consultation or rules must be observed when
purchasing or renting or designing a house.
• It is highly recommended especially if you are facing
problems and challenges or disharmony at home or
place of work.
How fast does Vasthu work?
• If you are already facing problems, benefits
could be noticed almost immediately if the
placement of things are followed 100%.
• Otherwise you can see or experience the benefits
of Vasthu between three months to a year.
• It all depends on the degree you observe Vasthu
recommendations.
Understanding Vasthu
• Vasthu is not magic, superstition, religion or
religious ritual.
• It does not work on a belief system and it is not a
question of faith but a fact of life.
The Earth

• Energy lines covering the earth from N to S, E to W
