Principle
Child Birth Doors: E2 for Daughters; N3, N4 and W4 for Sons
An E2 main door brings the birth of daughters, while N3, N4 and W4 main doors bring sons.
Principleचोर द्वार
Chor Dwar: E8 and E7 Doors Invite Theft
Main doors on E8 and E7 are chor dwar (theft doors): thefts keep happening in such houses and businesses.
Principle
Family Discord Doors: N6, N7, N8, E5, E6, S2, S3, S6 and S8
Each of these main door pads creates differences in the family for a particular reason, from anger and lies to poverty and crooked relatives; N6, S6 and S8 set father and son against each other.
Principleहीन बाहु द्वार
Heen Bahu Dwar: Anti-clockwise Route from Main Door to Gate
Leaving the main door and reaching the boundary wall gate by moving anti-clockwise forms heen bahu dwar, which cuts the results of even a correctly placed door.
Principleश्मशान
House Facing a Cremation Ground (Shamshan)
A house whose front faces a cremation ground does not give results even with correct facing and a correct door; most of the hard work drains away.
Principleअनिद्रा द्वार
Insomnia Doors: Main Door Pads That Disturb Sleep
Main doors on N6, N7, N8, E1, E6, E7, W6, W7, W8 and N1 cause insomnia, even when people sleep in a correct room and direction.
Principleनंदावर्त द्वार
Nandavart Dwar: Three Doors on N4, E4 and S4
A house with three doors on N4, E4 and S4 is a nandavart house; children born there are very good and rise high in education, politics or religion.
Principle
Religious Doors: E4, N4 and W4 Open Together
A house with E4, N4 and W4 doors all open has religious, devout and theist people who keep up pooja and faith in God.
Principleसर्वतोभद्र द्वार
Sarvatobhadra Dwar: Four Doors on N4, E4, S4 and W4
A house with doors open on all four number-four pads, N4, E4, S4 and W4, is a sarvatobhadra house; no vastu dosh affects it, whatever defects lie inside.
Principle
Septic Tank and Drainage Line Placement: WNW First, ESE Second
Make the septic tank in WNW as the first option and ESE as the second, never in the East or under the stairs, and run the underground drainage line clockwise from the South-West to the North-West.
Principleस्वस्तिक द्वार
Swastik Dwar: E4 Door Alone (Seva Bhavi Dwar)
A house with only the E4 door open is a swastik dwar house; the residents are good and religious, wealth and grain grow, and they are service-minded.
Principle
Swimming Pool Zones: NNE and NE to East, Avoiding the Shikhi Corner
The best place for a swimming pool is NNE and the North-East through ENE up to the East, leaving out the exact North-East diagonal (Shikhi devta); a sunken pool in the North-West is not good.
Principleवर्धमान द्वार
Vardhaman Dwar: Two Doors on N4 and E4
A house with two doors on N4 and E4, common in many homes, is a vardhaman house; it brings prosperity, happiness, peace and growth of sons and grandsons.
Principle
Check the Birth Chart Before Opening an E3 or E4 Door
Doors should not be opened by vastu alone; if the person has a debilitated Sun in the birth chart, forcing open an E3 or E4 door is not appropriate.
Principle
Opposite Devta Drishti: Balance One Devta Through the One Facing It
Like the full aspect of Jupiter in a kundli, a devta casts its full drishti on the devta opposite it (for example Surya on Varun) and keeps it balanced; if one devta cannot be treated, balance the one whose full drishti falls on it.
Principle
Room Use at Mahendra (E4): Office, Main Door and the Toilet Danger
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.
Principle
Room Use at Surya (E5): Ideal Bathroom, Door Anger and Toilet Disgrace
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.
Principle
Avoid the Direction of a Weak Planet for Facing, Bedroom and Study
Each planet rules a direction (Sun East, Mercury North, Saturn West, Rahu South-West); if that planet is debilitated, badly placed or very low in degree in a person's kundli, a house facing, bedroom, office seat or study in its direction harms them.
Principle
East Zone (Association): Suitable Rooms, Avoidances and Effects
East is the Sun's direction that starts creation and connects people socially, politically and religiously, so it is the zone of association and politics. Keep it open and clean; obstructing the Sun here brings trouble to the house owner.
Principle
Planet Strength Checks Before Assigning Bedroom Zones
A bedroom zone is chosen by the occupant's planets: an exalted planet makes its zone favourable and a debilitated one makes it harmful. Key checks are Sun for East, Venus for SE, Mars for South, Rahu-Ketu for SW, Saturn for West, Moon for NW, Mercury for North and Jupiter for NE.
Principle
Sleeping Direction: Feet Towards North, Never South
If the sleeping zone cannot be changed, changing the direction of the feet gives about 50 percent of the benefit. Feet towards North is best, West is second, East only for children and early risers, and South never.
Principle
Zoning Inside the Kitchen: Fridge, Spices, Knives, Water and Vegetables
Grid the kitchen from its own centre and place items by zone: the refrigerator in SE, South, West or ideally NW, spices in the South, knives and cutlery in the SW, drinking water in NNE or ENE and the vegetable basket in the East.
Principle
Drawing Room Effects in Each of the 16 Zones
East is the ideal drawing room zone, North suits business talks and the NE gives peace, while the SE, SSW and WNW are poor; a room energised with crystallised quartz can work almost anywhere.
Principle
Drawing Room Interior: Rectangular Seating, North Facing, Light Colours
The drawing room is the place for exchanging ideas, so its furniture is set in a square or rectangle, the person putting forward his views faces North, the colours are light and windows give cross-ventilation.
Principle
Face North or East While Studying, Praying, Eating and Bathing
During study, meditation, puja, bhajan, meals and bathing, one should face North or East.
Principle
Facing of the Deity and the Worshipper in the Home Temple
The deity faces East first and North second, never South; the worshipper faces North for wealth, East for spiritual progress and South or West for tantra, and before a consecrated idol all directions become zero.
Principle
Office Types Suited to Each of the 16 Zones
Each zone favours a particular kind of office: East for administration, North for finance, West for engineering and profit, WSW for every office, SW for employment and stability and ENE for media.
Principle
Study Room Effects in Each of the 16 Zones
WSW, West, SW, East, North and NE are strong study zones and ESE suits research, while SE, SSE, South, WNW, NW and NNW disturb concentration.
Principle
Toilet Effects in Each of the 16 Zones
Zone-by-zone results of a toilet: SSW and WNW are workable, NW and ESE only in an emergency, and every other zone damages what that zone governs.
Questions and answers
All 53 questionsIn a house visited earlier an elephant was painted in the Ishaan, yet the elephant is said to be the vehicle of the East. Where does it belong?
The elephant is the vehicle of Indra, lord of the East. Between the East and the North-East lies a 45-degree span with several pads, among them a debt door and a door that makes one rich, and every 11.25 degrees the chemistry and circumstances change, so the exact pad matters.
Pictures of the Sun with running horses are popular in homes. In which direction should they be placed?
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.
My neighbour's house in the East has two storeys and mine has one. What is the effect?
You are losing, because the East (the sun) gives all the energy. Either build a second storey or put up a flag: a metal flag of brass in the South-West of your roof, higher than their building, so that your building starts receiving cosmic energy.
I learned elsewhere that in 81 pad vastu the East falls between E4 and E5. Is that right?
No. In 81 pad vastu exact East falls on E5 (Surya); East between E4 and E5 belongs to the 64 pad grid, so correct it. The reference is in Vishwakarma Prakash, with the page number given in the previous class; the Hindi translation from Sanskrit by Krishna Kumar Jugnu of Udaipur and the edition of Maharshi Abhay Katyayan give the same.
A family with an N4 door has had only boys across generations. What can be done for a girl child?
N4, like N3 and W4, is a door that brings sons. Open an E2 door, which brings the birth of daughters. A home without a daughter is not a complete home.
My main door is on E4, yet since moving into this house I have had many money problems. Why?
First check whether the door is in plumb and level with a plumb line and water level, and whether a wall or another door stands in front of it. In this case the entrance was fine; the real cause was a full basement in the South and West portion, together with a problem in the North-East.
Which is the best zone for a swimming pool?
NNE and the North-East, leaving out Shikhi devta on the diagonal, and from the North-East through ENE up to the East.
Can a septic tank be in the East?
Absolutely not; a septic tank cannot be in the East.
If the main door is on a negative pad, does a clockwise or anti-clockwise route to the boundary gate change its results?
Yes. A correctly placed door with an anti-clockwise (heen bahu) exit gives fewer good results than it should. A door on a negative pad such as E5 or E6, whose route runs clockwise to a gate on W4 or W5, gives much less negative effect than the pad alone would.
If the Sun is debilitated (neech) in the horoscope, is an E4 door right?
No, in that case an E4 door is completely wrong.
Must the house be at 0 degrees for a sarvatobhadra dwar?
By definition it is at 0 degrees with doors in all four directions, but it can be made otherwise too: build the doors on whichever pads fall on Pushpdant, Grihakshat, Bhallat and E4.
Can a nandavart dwar be made in a flat?
Yes, it can be made in a flat too.
