Stairs right in front of the main door invite accidents and mishaps, but stairs that start at least twice the door height away (14 feet for a 7 feet door) are not treated as facing the door.
Griha arambh (start of construction), griha pravesh, factory opening and other auspicious (mangalik) events are held in daytime, because work begun with the sun's energy goes well. After sunset creation is considered asleep.
A defect in the South means a damaged Mars; strengthening Mars with stone cladding, stone flooring, stone statues and red coral or hematite nullifies the South defect.
A stone held on the palm while walking a land jumps where energy, ground water or minerals are present; even a heavy stone of 10 to 20 kg has been seen to jump.
When a plan arrives rotated on the paper or PDF, first turn the paper or PDF until one straight side of the plan is truly straight, even if the paper then sits tilted. Take that wall's degree, complete the whole zoning in that position, and only then turn the page back.
When all planets sit in enemy signs, the strongest planet, Jupiter, is strengthened through dharma, devotion, mantra jaap, sadhana and a kalash in the North-East, so that the hostile planets slowly turn friendly.
Study room colours follow the zone, but education belongs to Jupiter, so ivory, golden yellow, green (Mercury) and white suit study, as does the colour of the 5th house lord when it is well placed.
WSW, West, SW, East, North and NE are strong study zones and ESE suits research, while SE, SSE, South, WNW, NW and NNW disturb concentration.
A study room needs its door in the NE, East, North or West, cross-ventilation, a correct slope, a perfectly level study table and bookshelves on a North or East-facing wall.
Children who cannot concentrate on studies often have a study table that is not level, so the gravitational force on it is not balanced. The same applies to a shop counter and the owner's seat (gaddi).
Neighbouring ponds, hills, tall buildings and factories affect a property even though they are not in the owner's registry. A tall building to the North blocks the magnetic energy and one to the East blocks the sun's rays.
Mercury and the Moon together promise a luxurious house; a sugarcane painting in the North or North-East supports the comforts of home and garden this combination gives.
The East belongs to the Sun. Its interior uses light orange, greens, pink, yellow and ivory white, sandstone, copper or gold-polished showpieces, sunrise pictures and sun-loving plants.
Pictures of the Sun, including the popular Sun with running horses, belong only in the East. A Sun-like figure with a moustache is Shani Dev, and installing his image on gates facing the house brought incurable illness to one family member after another.
When the Sun sits in the 10th house it becomes karak and very strong; the direction of that house should be painted in sunrise orange or light yellow-orange, never in blue, black or white.
Surya, the fifth devta at the centre of the East, lights the three worlds, destroys darkness and negativity, gives energy to all planets and never misses its time. Balanced, it gives fearlessness, good decisions, speaking power, fame, leadership, government support and perfect time management.
The Surya mukh symbol represents the fire element; it brings successful meetings, connection with people, political power, social contacts and proper communication.
A swan statue or painting in the NNW of the bedroom and rose or pink rose wallpaper on the South wall strengthen Venus and romance between the couple.
By examining the active swar and tatva at the moment a question is asked, win-loss questions can be answered for anyone, anywhere, without a kundali. The teacher answered a journalist's phone questions on four state election results this way.
Before entering a land, note which nostril is active and how far down and in what direction the breath flows; step onto the land first with the foot of the active side, walk one full round while watching the breath, and read the land's quality and defects from it.
Swar vigyan (the science of breath) works even where Vastu and other sciences fail: a pinch of dust placed in a house at the right swar works like gold. Starting work, griha pravesh, treatments and land testing should all be done by swar.
A house with only the E4 door open is a swastik dwar house; the residents are good and religious, wealth and grain grow, and they are service-minded.
People who are not getting political success draw a swastik on gomti chakra and, while drawing it, hold and write their wish. Being calcium phosphate, gomti chakra links that intention quickly with the universe.
If a staircase turns anti-clockwise, a swastik drawn on the left and right walls of the staircase above navel height converts the anti-clockwise movement into clockwise movement.
The swastik is made on the bahi khata (account book); since accounts are now kept on computers, make it on whatever register remains, or on the laptop itself.
Use a bed without a storage box, keep the floor under it swept and keep peeli sarson under the mattress; the negativity picked up during the day drains away and bad dreams stop.
When Saturn is exalted (sign 7) or swagrahi (signs 10 or 11), especially as a kendra lord sitting in a kendra, a painting of fish swimming in water in the West grows business and brings justice.
The best place for a swimming pool is NNE and the North-East through ENE up to the East, leaving out the exact North-East diagonal (Shikhi devta); a sunken pool in the North-West is not good.
Filling soil should come only from fertile fields or mountains, never from polluted or inauspicious places, and should be taken after giving a coconut and asking permission of the place's devta.
In an irregular plot, ignore the slanting side and take the degree of any side that runs straight in the map, parallel to the edge of the paper. The tilt found from that side is then applied to zone the whole plot.
