Seed Germination (Fertility) Test of a Land

Seeds of five grains sown in a small watered patch of the land show its energy by how fast they sprout: within three days is excellent, five days moderate, and no sprout in seven days marks an inferior, infertile land.

What it does

To test a land's fertility and life energy before building a home, factory, school or temple.

Where

A 2 x 2 feet patch at the site of the planned building

Samagri used

  • Seeds of five grains, such as wheat, chana, bajra and maize
  • Water

See every other use of:

Chana (Gram)Gehun (Wheat)Jal (Water)

How to do it

  1. 1Choose a 2 x 2 feet patch where the home, factory, school, college or temple is to be built
  2. 2Water the patch and sow seeds of five types of grain, such as wheat, chana, bajra and maize, the way wheat javare are sown in Navratri
  3. 3Watch for sprouting each day
  4. 4Sprouts within 3 days: excellent, fertile land in every way
  5. 5Sprouts in 5 days: moderate land
  6. 6No sprout at all within 7 days: nikrisht (inferior), infertile land with no energy

Cautions

  • Avoid a land where no seed sprouts in seven days: children may not be born to those who live there

Explanation and notes

A land that cannot sprout seeds has no energy, and that lack of fertility passes to the people who live on it.

Principle

Land Energy Carries 70 Percent Weight in Land Selection

When selecting a plot, flat or industrial land, the energy of the land itself decides about 70 percent of the result, more than slope, shape or surrounding structures. A building made fully as per directional vastu can still fail on land with bad energy.

Dehleez Test: Breath and Body Signs When Setting Out to See a Plot

The threshold (dehleez) of the home acts as a testing machine: the moment you step over it to go and see a plot, flat or factory, your breath and body signal whether that property is good. Equal flow in both nostrils or left-side body signs warn against it; earth or water element in the breath and right-side signs approve it.

Predictionशकुन शास्त्र

Inauspicious Omens on the Way to See a Plot or Flat

Shakun shastra (nimitta gyan) reads the signs met on the way to a property; certain sights and events on the journey warn that the plot or flat is not good. They arise because the land's energy is already acting on the visitor's body chemistry.

Testingशल्य

Locating Buried Shalya from Bird Droppings, Injury and Itching

Where a bird's droppings fall on the visitor's body or clothes, where the visitor gets hurt, or where itching starts on the way to or while walking a land points to the matching part of the Vastu Purush where a defect or buried bone (shalya) lies.

Prediction

Dog, Jackal and Crow Omens at the Plot

The behaviour of street dogs, jackals and crows at a plot or flat reveals its quality: a crow cawing while facing East or North is a good sign, while crying dogs and a crow on a dry tree are grave warnings.

Prediction

Sights and Sounds on First Entering a Land or Flat

What one first sees and hears on stepping onto a land or into a flat indicates its energy: black items, broken things, snake holes and harsh sounds are bad signs, while a conch, aarti or auspicious songs, a rainbow or a joyful sky are good ones.
