Four practices protect a person from even a thousand vastu doshas or a wrongly placed door: a daily navgrah herb bath, tirth darshan in eclipses and vyatipat yoga, full use of swar all day, and daily abhishek with charan raj.
Daily routine of the person and the home
Gomti chakra, a small natural wheel (chakra) first found in the Gomti river, is presented as a brahmastra of remedial vastu. Once purified and energised it can remove vastu doshas and planetary troubles, recover stuck money, create marriage yogas and speed up business like a fast-spinning wheel.

Once the brick masonry is complete and before plastering, spray desi cow urine over the entire masonry, the way water is sprayed for curing.

Where fly ash bricks are already laid, as in a director's chamber, sprinkling gomutra and a cow-based purifier over the brickwork before plastering changes its chemistry.
Walls built of fly ash bricks, such as an office or director's chamber
When a family sleeps far too much, the home sits on a lazy, dormant land whose fire element has fallen to zero; a havan, an eight-day cow ghee akhand jyot in the South-East and daily dhoop with Bhimseni kapoor restore the fire and correct the sleep.
South-East zone of the home
A cold or sinus blockage reverses the swar, with the Chandra swar running more; deliberately running the Surya swar, by force if needed, clears the accumulated kapha over time.
Where the air element is disturbed, for example in a rented flat that causes gastric trouble, use green colour in the North-West, put up a flag (dhwaj) there, preferably a five-element flag, and open the North-West with a window.
North-West zone
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.
The four corners of each of the two merged flats
Blocked marma and ati marma points are opened with injection-like remedies: special herbs are placed under marma points, while metal kurma (tortoise) figures, metals and precious minerals are installed on the ati marma. They reopen the blocked energy channels of the land.

Burning hing and making a spirit-affected person smell it drives away any spirit (pret) at once. Such a person should also always keep yellow mustard with them.
Near the affected person
For a patient who is not improving and on whom medicines are not working, a gomti chakra tied with silver wire at the head side of the bed and earthed into the ground drains away the negative energy.

A potli of purified, energised gomti chakra mixed with a little yellow mustard, made on a swayam siddh muhurta in red cloth for illness, yellow for business and white for studies. With a kesar swastik and a wish on every gomti chakra it becomes a jadoo ki potli (magic potli) that keeps fulfilling the wish.
Red: with the patient or tied to the bed; yellow: at the business place; white: on the study table or near the books; in the pocket for business meetings
Every vastu consultant should carry small red cloth pouches of energised yellow mustard, because a client calls only when negative energy is present and it can come home in the consultant's bag. Potlis are also kept in the drawing room and under beds, and given to clients.
Consultant's bag, kit or suitcase, the drawing room and under every bed; a red potli can go in any direction, even the North
Yellow mustard spread under the mattress helps whoever is in trouble. A cushion (gaddi) filled with 5 or 10 kg of mustard is made for the owner to sit on, and a sick child or a child who cries all night is laid on bedding filled with yellow mustard.

Painting a school or study room in green (Mercury, intellect) and ivory (Jupiter, education) restores children's health and concentration.
School buildings, classrooms and children's study rooms
When a home suffers constant quarrels or illness, paint it pista (pistachio green) if the owner's Mercury is not debilitated, or white if the Moon is not afflicted, and add peace symbols and friendly element shapes.
Rooms where the unrest or illness is felt
A person who cannot sleep anywhere should be given a bed in the South zone and made to sleep with the feet toward North. Sleep starts coming properly.
South zone bedroom
Shoes bring outside energy, so the shoe rack stays near the entrance: on the NW side of a north-facing entrance and on the ESE side of an east-facing entrance. Where neither is possible, make the rack of wood and place muscovite (abhrak) under it.
Near the main entrance: NW side of a north-facing door, ESE side of an east-facing door
Steel reinforcement raises the electromagnetic current in modern buildings; a copper pyramid of a particular angle placed at the bottom of every column nullifies this negative energy.
Bottom of every column
Whatever zone the kitchen is in, move the burner to the South-East of that kitchen and set it so the cook faces East, or North if East is impossible. This is the best kitchen treatment and removes many doshas.
South-East of the kitchen room
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.
Ground below the middle of the common wall
If an overhead tank sits directly above the bed, paste a thin layer of muscovite (mica) on the ceiling or fit a wooden ceiling.

Water absorbs about 60 percent of the Moon's energy; a silver pot of water kept in the Sharad Purnima moonlight becomes a strong medicine for acidity.
Under open moonlight
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.
Inside the toilet, at the ventilation side in the direction of the air flow
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.
Toilet seat
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.

Spraying desi cow urine mixed with water on furniture and surfaces finished with PU, oil-based paint or strong adhesives reduces their harmful effect.
Furniture, shutters and painted surfaces
A spray of neem and tulsi water, or burning a powder of dried neem and tulsi leaves like a havan, gives relief from PU and other chemical finishes.

Slightly warmed banyan leaves tied over a swollen part of the body remove the swelling; the healing comes from the natural green colour of the leaf.
On the swollen part of the body
Giloy, an ayurvedic creeper, grown in the East lets the morning sunrays pass through it into the rooms, which improves the immunity of the residents even if they do not consume it.
East side of the house
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.
A picture of the Sun goes only in the East. Make sure it really is the Sun: a Sun-like figure with a moustache is Shani Dev, and in one prominent family his images on both gates facing the house were followed by incurable illness in member after member.
It is a negative sign. A bird striking the head gives a health-related indication and warns that an illness may be coming. This is part of the wider subject of ashtang nimitta.
Yes, the swar becomes reversed; during a cold the Chandra swar runs more. To clear accumulated kapha, change the swar and run the Surya swar, forcibly if needed; congestion built up over many days takes time and will not clear in a day. The body stays warm inside however cold it is outside, just as borewell water comes out warm in winter.
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.
Protection methods are taught in later classes. Even with protection, very strong negative energy will make the body react while you are there, just as wind touches you whatever shield you make, but with a protective shield (suraksha kavach) it cannot do more than that reaction.
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.
Use green colour and a flag-like pattern: put up a flag (dhwaj) in the North-West and, if possible, open the North-West with a window; this brings at least some balance. Swar vigyan can do still more without expense or demolition.
The meditative form of nadi shodhan and the 72 kala practice can still be done, inhaling energy to charge the baby.
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.
Balance the air element of the house.
Yes, it definitely does. Doors and their effects are taught in detail in the door classes.
