When two flats are merged and the toilet falls at the new centre, do kilan separately for each flat: four copper nails at the corners of one flat and four at the corners of the other, so that the energy current moves along each set of nails and the two flats work as separate units.
A small desi cow ghee diya and above all a bhimseni kapoor lamp, the fragrance Shikhi likes most, correct a cut, raised, dirty, uneven or toilet-affected Shikhi pad and a blocked mind.
A picture of bright white gandharva nagar clouds, cloud formations that look like palaces, hung at the Parjanya pad fulfils plans and wishes and treats a dosh at E2 without other changes.
Bricks stamped with a swastik create strong negative energy once laid in toilets or under the feet, because the sacred symbol is dishonoured. Where such bricks are already used, spray the brickwork with gomutra before plastering.
When a toilet and kitchen share a wall, inject mercury into the ground at the middle of the common wall so bacteria cannot travel into the kitchen.
A glass bowl layered with sea sand, alum, salt and sea sand again, kept in the toilet where the air flows out, absorbs the negativity of the toilet.
Sitting on the toilet with the left nostril closed, the teeth pressed together and the feet raised on a small footstool clears the bowels in seconds and protects the teeth and stomach.
Turning the toilet seat so the user faces North or South, never East or West, corrects about half the dosh of a toilet even when it stands in a wrong zone.
In a dressing room or bathroom mirrors should go on the North or East walls. If a wash basin is already in the South and its mirror must be there, fix a mirror of the same size on the North wall to balance it.
Parjanya, the cloud and rain devta (megh, badal) at E2 next to Shikhi, brings rain, productivity and fertility and fulfils plans and wishes like a kalpavriksha. It is the doctor of crops, people and animals.
Shikhi, also called Shiva, is the first outer devta of the pishach bhoomi, at E1 near the North-East corner. A mahayogi and a highly sensitive maha-dowser, its pad reacts at once to anything done there; it governs vision, foresight and decisions.
Jayant, the third devta of the East (pad E3, in the outer paishachik ring), is the success-maker who completes any work by any means (saam, daam, dand, bhed) while following dharma, and converts knowledge into wealth. Its door is called the vipul sampada (abundant wealth) door because the grace of the Moon on this pad is very strong.
Mahendra (Indra), the fourth devta of the East, is the king, sustainer and administrator who brings the energy of the planets, Sun, Moon and 27 nakshatras to earth and spreads it evenly through the house. It gives control over the mind and senses, right decisions, government support, contacts, name and fame.
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.
On the 10th to 25th floors the air moves with high intensity, so energy generated in a flat moves away quickly and the rules for ground-level buildings do not apply. Even a wrongly placed toilet in a high flat often causes no trouble.
The earth cooled from a ball of fire and tilted about 23.4 degrees toward the North-East, so a floor that is level or falls gently toward the North-East is in harmony with nature. An uneven floor, or one sloping any other way, is one of the biggest defects whatever the zone.
A large study found that people whose toilet seats were not at water level suffered kidney damage, and many with heart disease, cancer and especially stomach problems had seats out of level. A level seat matters even more than the zone of the toilet.
The North is ruled by Kuber, its planet is Mercury (Budh), its gem is emerald (panna), its symbol is the gada (mace) and in the Vastu Purush it is the heart. A good North brings wealth, career, opportunities, jobs, rise and respect.
The North-East is ruled by Isha, its planet is Jupiter (Guru), the greatest of the planets, its gem is yellow sapphire (pukhraj), its symbol is the kalash and its vehicle the horse; in the Vastu Purush it is the head and brain. It gives true knowledge, prosperity and peace.
Living above a bank is acceptable, but a flat whose toilet lies directly above the bank's safe or locker room, where the money is kept, ruins its residents financially.
In vastu, dasha, meaning the land energy, matters more than disha, the direction of a defect. A home whose directional defects cannot be fixed can still get 50 to 60 percent relief by correcting its land energy.
The same vastu does not suit everyone: not every South-facing house fails and not every North-East toilet gives cancer. Interior choices of wood, metal, colour, material and artifacts are customised from a study of the planets of the person.
The three zones from North-East to East receive pure energy that must collect and stay, so they are kept low, open to the sky and free of dirt, toilets, high walls and heavy objects, with a part left unpaved (kachcha) for a garden or lawn.
In the South-South-West the scorching sun destroys vitamins and minerals, and the gravitational force, balanced in the South, becomes imbalanced 22.5 degrees further, so the energy here is poor. This zone is used for the dustbin, garbage and toilet.
After sunset the Moon pours its full energy first into the West, just as the sun pours its energy into the North-East before sunrise, so the West is the zone of profit and gains.
A basement without sunlight should not be used for sleeping or staying, a kitchen, a toilet, a patient or a locker; its entry should come from the North or East and its walls should be white.
Ati marma are the nine most sensitive points of the Vastu grid, formed where six devta-to-devta lines cross. In a regular, proportionate plot almost all of them fall in the Brahmasthan, and any piercing, load or dirt on them blocks the energy of the whole plot and brings severe, lasting trouble, above all to the owner (griha swami).
A doctor's chamber is the best use of the Parjanya pad, and a conference room, a bedroom for peace and deep sleep, or a bath (yog snan) also suit it. A toilet or a main door here causes delays and female dominance.
Drawing room, office, puja room, conference room, underground water tank, borewell and a bedroom for elders suit the Shikhi pad. A main door, kitchen or toilet here harms the residents.
Metal is a good conductor and spreads energy, so steel or metal strips set around a toilet do not block it; blocking needs a bad conductor and must cover every side.
Get the seat removed and refitted perfectly level, because health matters more than the cost. Many people found with kidney, heart and cancer problems, and especially stomach problems, had toilet seats that were not at water level. The main door too must be in plumb, leaning neither in nor out, and level where it stands.
Anything placed on the ground should be at water level, and the floor of the whole house should stay the same. Give the toilet and bathroom floor its slope toward the North-East; water draining toward the South-West is very troublesome.
Because their land energy is high. Land energy decides about 70 percent of the result, so on strongly energetic land even an opposite orientation does little harm, while on obstructed or cursed land no orientation helps.
Yes, advise removing it: the North is Kuber's place, and keeping filth at the place of wealth is like putting dirt in the mouth, so wealth cannot grow. After any demolition do a Vastu pooja; even a short one is enough, offering 45 small pieces of gud to the 45 devtas or invoking the nine lords with Bho Indra Vastu Dev Vastu Shanti Kuru Kuru and so on for each direction, with Brahma at the centre.
The North must be corrected and the land energy improved. Where the energy is good, any defects present give only about half their bad results. Household quarrels (grih klesh) are natural while such defects remain.
Because the North-East belongs to Jupiter (Guru), the greatest planet, and to its lord Isha. A toilet, dirt or height there blocks Guru's grace, and spoiling the North-East spoils even a strong Jupiter in one's horoscope.
Yes. Land energy carries 70 percent of the role, so changing and correcting it can give about 50 to 60 percent relief. Many large hotels have toilets in the Ishaan and still prosper because 6 to 10 feet of soil was dug out and thrown away, removing the land's negativity. In vastu, dasha (land energy) matters more than disha (direction).
It indicates negative energy at that place. Dowsers and highly sensitive persons feel such energy much more strongly, and your body was able to sense it; talking about it connects you to it again. The teacher has had similar reactions at sites, once with his whole body going limp, red and sweating and with severe loose motions.
No. If it did, the owners of five and seven star hotels, which commonly have toilets in the North-East, would suffer first, and every South-facing owner would be ruined. Vastu must be read together with the planets of the person, which are exalted and which debilitated, instead of blindly applying one rule to everyone.
Either remove the toilet, which is rarely practical, or keep the two flats separate through kilan: four copper nails at the corners of one flat and four at the corners of the other. At griha pravesh a raksha sutra is tied around the house and nails are fixed at the four corners so that the current moves along them, and kilan divides the current the same way. Even on the third floor, simply drill and fix 1.5-inch copper nails.
No. Water lines reach every zone anyway through washrooms and taps, and lines inside the ground do not have much effect. Only dirty water lines matter, which is why they should run clockwise.
Shikhi sits there and the spot holds heat and fire, so a house door at E1 can cause fire incidents and accidents. A boundary-wall gate is allowed, being in the pishach bhoomi, and so is the door of a temple or other religious building, a school or a college, because such buildings represent Jupiter and become the yogi's own home. A kitchen at Shikhi keeps health poor and brings memory loss, money problems, anger, indecision and a blocked mind, and a toilet there in the North-East stops vansh vriddhi (growth of the family line).
