Enhancing your Powers with Vaastu (For Students)
Enhance your Powers with Vaastu
The Basics
Though science of Vast existed since ancient times, its importance has been re-emphasized only in modern time. Vast offers a very powerful tool for enhancing the effect of good natural powers and at the same time negating effects of the bad powers.
Vaastu is the science of directions that combines all the five elements of nature namely The Earth, Water, Air, Fire and Space and balances them with the man and the material. Vaastu Shastra is creating a congenial settings or a place to live or work, in most scientific way taking advantages of the benefits bestowed by the five elements also called "Paanchbhootas" of the nature thereby paving the way for enhanced health, wealth, prosperity and happiness in an enlightened environment. The world comprises of these five basic elements known. Out of the nine planets, only our planet has life because of the presence of all these five elements so your body is nothing but a creation by god by using these five elements in harmony with the nature. These elements can effectively be used either in harmony with the nature to enhance your powers or in conflict with the nature to completely destroy your abilities.
Vaastu Advice For The Study Room
A study room should be such that the person studying there can put his full concentration and is helped by the natural powers to do so. If he does not position himself properly and does not choose the layout of the room and the furnishings in the room then he will not able to concentrate properly, will not be able to sit there for long and will feel uncomfortable. The key is to use the natural powers to your advantage and negate the bad effects of the powers which they may otherwise have.
One has to take care of the following points while selecting and laying down the study room: -
·Proper location of the study room in the house, the direction of the Entrance
·The direction & placement of the study table.
·The direction to face while studying
·The direction & placement of the book shelf
·Lighting arrangement of the room.
·The things to be kept in the study room
·The color scheme of the room.
Study room location
It should be located in the direction considered most auspicious for learning and knowledge. These are the east, the north or the northeast of the house. Along with that if the door of the room is also in either of these directions, the result turns out to be the best. The room should never be in southwest or south.
Astrologically, the sun is the lord of the east (direction) and any work done or studies performed sitting in this direction will bring fruitful results.
Studying and sitting in the east rarely hinders concentration. In your study room, have your seat so as to face east or north.
Do not have a toilet in the study room, though you can have a bathroom.
Some preventive measures: Make Sure that…
·The study doesn’t have a noisy toilet on the floor above or below and that the student doesn’t study sitting under a beam.
·That there is no mirror reflecting their books while they study. This has the effect creating a lot of pressure on them.
·Pillars, columns, sharp pointed edges of furniture, open shelves etc act as obstructions and deterrents to good concentration.
·Shoes and chappals should not be kept under a bed. Try to keep the area under the bed, as clean as possible. As far as possible all foot wears
hould be kept away from the room only bath room slipper could be kept.
Study Table
It isn’t advisable to keep the study table against a wall. There should be open space in front. This encourages fresh ideas and approach and breaks the monotony of lengthy study sessions.
The table should not stick to the wall. It should be at least 3 feet away from it. Along with that unnecessary books should not be piled up on the table. Only the books, which are needed, should be kept on the table. Load of books on the table create unnecessary mental pressure on the mind. You could have a solid wall behind you as it signifies support. One can also place a painting or poster of a mountain behind to add support. However, the peaks of the mountain should preferably be smooth and not sharp.
Ensure that the study table isn’t cluttered with heaps of books piled on it. The table and chair should also be neat and clean. A revolving chair usually isn’t a good idea; a four-legged wooden chair is best. Ensure that the height of the table and the chair are suitable for you and there is no unnecessary strain on your neck.
Further the size of the study table should not be too big or too small. It
should be just the size that is comfortable for the working of the student. A big sized table diminishes the working capacity, whereas the small table gives rise to depression.
Bookshelves
It is a good idea to place the bookshelves on the sides rather than above the study table. Books placed above the study table tend to exert pressure and create unnecessary stress.
.The study books should be placed in the cupboard in the cabinet rather than in the open. And if the shutter of the cupboard is kept shut the flow of energy is constantly maintained.
The books in the study chamber should be kept in the east, north, Southwest, South or West direction and not in the North - East.
In addition to that if the north - east direction bears heavy weight it shall pressurize the students' mind.
Lighting
The study room should be bright and lit up well. Dingy, dimly lit rooms are depressing and in conducive to a child’s education, growth and attitude.
An adequate amount of sunlight is a boon for a balanced all-round development. However if you do not get natural light due to any reason, adequate suitable artificial lighting is a must however is should be remembered that no artificial light can ever give the benefits of the natural lighting.
While studying, the shadow of the student should not fall on the books being studied.
A study lamp is another way of energizing the room in focusing on the task in hand. The light of the lamp should be bright preferably white and care should be taken that it does not fall directly on the eyes and should not be too harsh on the eyes. Table lamp should be kept in the Southeast corner of the table.
Energizing Study Rooms for better concentration
·Gayatri chants early morning is a powerful tool to energies living spaces. You do not have to recite the mantra always, even a cassette has a great effect, just experiment with it.
·A television playing in a room interrupts concentration whereas music does not. A TV serial being played in next room at loud volume can cause discomfort and may result in lack of concentration.
·Playing inspirational and soothing music in the children’s room is very effective. Study and music go together well. Point to remember is that it should not cause distraction and should be predominantly be instrumental.
·Are you aware of Earth’s magnetic field and how it affects the magnetic materials. Do you know your blood contains lot of iron? Ensure that you sleep with head towards the East or South. A person becomes learned by placing his head towards the East and is troubled by distressing thoughts by lying down with his head placed in the Westward direction. By placing head in South direction you ensure good health and sound sleep.
·A pendulum watch is a must in each and every study room as it instills a sense of movement and life.
Inspirational Pictures
Place an inspirational picture in the child’s room. The picture could be that of a galloping horse, a rising Sun all these are symbols of strength and inspire even the weakest.
The study room should have images of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Saraswati.
Hang framed certificates or display trophies etc won by you on the South wall. Reminding the winnings and successes of the past invariably revive the faith in your self and the fighting sprit in you.
Do not put pictures depicting any battle scenes, fights, dragons, skeletons etc as these have a negative effect and cause negative energy to flow in the room.
Remember what you become depends a lot on what you eat, what you see and what you hear. So be careful in choosing these things.
One should not have pictures depicting war scenes (even if they belong to the Epic Mahabharata or Ramayan battles). Similarly scenes depicting negativities of life like sorrow, struggle, violence (including that of wild beasts), and tragedy and have calamities.
Te color Scheme
If possible, the walls of the study room should be light orange in color as it is very auspicious and enhances the wishing power as well as supports the speedy progress of mind.
Do not use a dark color in the study room. You can use yellow, white or pink also. Your room should be vibrant and cheerful, avoid too much of black in this room.
