Read MoreIn vastu shastra - Vastu purush has a great significance. But if I tell you that Vastupurush is nothing else but, it is nothing else but a pictorial representation of Sun and Wind Dial. You may think is it truth ? Yes, It is 100% true.
Now look at the two pictures on the side, The upper one is Vastu Purush and the one below is Vastu Ashta Chakra, Now Ashta Chakara is prepared by keeping the Direction of Sun and Wind in mind. In Ashta Chakara, you can see the areas marked with ‘U’ are Upper areas or Ucchasthan, whereas areas marked with ‘N’ are the Lower areas or Nicchasthan.
Now, it is recommended that we must provide doors and windows in Ucchastan, Here comes the secrete, compare both the figures, the head of the Vastu Purush is in Uccha sthan, the discrating area is in the Niccha sthan, from Head if you move on either side it leads to Niccha sthan and from feet if you move on both direction it leads to Uccha sthan. So, Vastu Purush was created as a pictorial representation of Ashta Chakara to make it easier for people to understand the science behind it. But people advice you to bury the image of Vastu purush in your house, they misguide you. I will once again advice you to follow, what is scientifically or logically true. Follow Vastu Purush in planning, as it is scientifical representation of Sun and Wind Dial only.
