Vastu Mantra | In English

Vastu dosh is one of the most dreaded doshas as it can hamper both your personal and professional life at once. In astrology, Vastu Dosh is all about deficiency present in a house, office or any other premises dear to the native. Wrong Vastu, that is placement or location of things or overall structure in the wrong direction, leads to Vastu dosh. Vastu Dosh attracts negative energies and destruction for the native, thus disturbing his or her life. Hence, it is advised that one must always try to make his or her house Vastu compatible by consulting an astrologer.

Vastu incompatibility is a modern problem with contemporary residential projects not considering the complete picture of Vastu Shastra when building any kind of property, be it residential or commercial. However, such errors in construction and non-compliance with the rules of Vastu affect the natives using the building the most. Vastu Dosh brings along errors and omissions in the direction and flow of energy of the Panch Mahabhoot viz earth, water, fire, air and space. When these elements get misplaced in the life of the native, they tend to affect his life negatively.

Side Effects of Bad Vastu or Vastu Dosh

• In Vastu, the North direction rules over the finances of the native. This direction is the deciding factor of how well you will earn or have monetarily in life. Any kind of Vastu defect in the north direction, hence, should be eradicated to have a successful life.
• As per Vastu shastra, the East direction is associated with recognition and your love life. Hence if there is any kind of strain in any of these two aspects of your life, then it is necessary that you pay attention to the Vastu of the east direction of the house.
• As per astrologers, Vastu defects in the West direction of the house bring problems like chest disease and poverty. Also, if you are noticing problems such as delay in marriage or the youngest daughter of the house is facing any problem in life, then in such cases, the west direction of the house must be rectified astrologically.
• Legal issues, eye-related problems and problems such as loss of work come to people who have defects in the Vastu of the South direction of their home or office.
• In Vastu, the northeast direction is the most important as it is associated with the fortune and luck of the native. Vastu defects in the northeast direction bring misfortune such as accidents, surgeries, legal discords and a general sense of disappointment.
• If the northwest direction of the house isn’t Vastu-compatible, then it can lead to heart disease and mental problems for the native. Hence, the main entrance, underground water tank, temple or kitchen must never be created in the northeast direction as per Vastu.
• The Southeast direction is associated with the peace of mind of the native. Any kind of Vastu dosh in the southeast direction is harmful to one’s mental health.
• The southwest direction controls the personal relationships of the residents of any house. Any negative energy emitting from the southwest direction could lead to loss of money and domestic problems.

If you have a personal house built on your own land, then practising remedies for Vastu dosh in home is simple. All you need to do is make some changes after taking the advice of the Vastu experts. However, then there are situations when making changes to the home Vastu isn’t a choice at hand. For example, the people living in apartments mostly don’t have an option to make infrastructural changes to the apartment even if it's Vastu incompatible. In such a situation, Vastu mantras can come in handy.

Vastu Dosh can be removed by regular Jaap of the Vastu mantra. Vastu mantra helps to get rid of these negative energies and invite auspiciousness in the premises. Vastu mantra is one of the best ways to remove Vastu dosh from a house if you can’t afford to make Vastu-related changes or are just too lazy to make some.

Vastu Mantras to Remove Vastu Dosh

The deity of Vastu mantra is Vastu Purush, who also goes by the name Kaal Purush. Vastu Purush refers to the soul or energy of a place. Vastu Purush lies head down in the earth in an inverted position. In the same position, his feet point in the Southwest direction; head is in the Northeast; left and right hands are positioned in the Southeast and Northwest directions, respectively.

As per astrology, the stomach of Vastu Purush is the abode of Brahman, who is known as the Creator of the Universe. When in the best state, Vastu Purush blesses the natives with abundance of wealth, health and peace of mind. Reciting the Vastu Mantra dedicated to Vastu Purush creates an atmosphere of calm and happiness in the premises of the native.
