Main doors on W8 and N1 are rog dwar (disease doors): one family member after another falls ill, and the head of the house suffers long illness.

E4 suits an administration chamber, office, main door, drawing room, study and bedroom and gives both wealth and peace; a toilet here brings defamation, loss of wealth and disease.
E5 is the ideal zone for a bathroom and suits administration, a manager's chamber, a locker, planning, meeting and conference rooms and a good office; a door here brings anger and a toilet brings disgrace.

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.
Sagun means doing an act while holding the breath. A lamp lit in sagun burns many times longer on the same ghee, and a shankh blown in sagun with a wish in mind drives negative energy out of the house.

When a bed is made of unsuitable wood or one has to sleep in a wrong zone, a small piece of sandalwood touching the wood of the bed, or asan wood under its four legs, corrects it.
Sandstone, a sedimentary earth-element rock with about 94 percent silica, keeps the energy of a place positive and is the best floor where strong administration is needed.

Satya, the sixth devta of the East, is the son of Dharma and stands for truth, goodwill and justice; like a village panchayat whose members speak the truth, it gives fair decisions. Balanced, it makes a person a good judge and advisor; imbalanced, lies spread through the house and honour is lost.
