Method
Marking the 45 Vastu Devtas on a Map by the Angular Method
After bhoomi vibhajan the 45 Vastu devtas are marked by angle: the 32 outer devtas at 11.25 degrees each in the Pishach bhoomi, four main inner devtas at 54 degrees and eight others at 18 degrees in the combined Manushya and Dev band, and Brahma in the centre.
Energy Boosting
Gomti Chakra in Brahm Nabhi, Chabutra, Dehleez and Door Power
Gomti chakra are laid as a circle in the brahm nabhi, as a square in a chabutra and as a full line in the dehleez, and are used in every kind of door power. Each one must be laid with its smooth white face up.

Door Power: Dehleez Installation in Muhurta with Silver and Pancha Ratna
Door power means installing the dehleez, the base wood of the four-piece door frame, in a proper muhurta and swar with protective samagri placed in the ground beneath it. Done this way it removes about 50 percent of the dosh even of a wrongly placed door.
Energy Boostingद्वार का मुख मंडल
Face-Like Main Door: Lamp Niches, Jharokhas, Tilak Symbol and Lips
Design the main door like a face: two shutters as the nostrils, two small niches as the eyes, two jharokhas as the ears, an Om or swastik as the tilak, and the threshold and upper frame as the lips. Ancient texts say such decoration multiplies the power of the main door many times.

Om, Swastik, Kalash and Isht Name on the Main Door in a Shubh Muhurta
Mark Om and swastik on the main door, write the name of your isht (chosen deity) and add auspicious symbols such as kalash and darpan. Do it in a good muhurta such as Basant Panchami or after the Sun turns Uttarayan.
Muhurtaवास्तु पूजन
When to Perform Vastu Poojan of the 45 Devtas
Vastu poojan is done not only at the start of construction but at several stages and family events; at griha arambh and griha pravesh it is essential.
Testingकेसर स्वास्तिक
Kesar Swastik Test for Land Energy and Outside Influence
A swastik drawn with kesar on a whitewashed surface stays bright for 24 to 48 hours where the energy is good; if it fades or vanishes, the energy is disturbed or an outside negative influence (bahari hawa) is present.
Testingसूत और साहुल
Checking the Main Door for Tilt with a Plumb Line and Water Level
A main door that leans inward or outward even by half a degree to two degrees stops giving results; check it with a plumb line (soot-saval) and a water level.
Testing
Checklist: Why a Main Door on a Correct Pad Gives No Results
A main door on an auspicious pad still fails when the route to the gate is wrong, when there is any vedh in front, when the house faces a cremation ground, or when the door is out of plumb.
Testing32 द्वार पद
Locating the 32 Door Padas (E1 to N8) on a House Map
Divide the 360 degrees around the centre of the house into 32 padas of 11.25 degrees each, one for each of the 32 guardian devtas of the outer ring, named E1 to E8, S1 to S8, W1 to W8 and N1 to N8. The pada in which the main door falls tells its result.
Vastu Devtaपर्जन्य देवता
Parjanya Devta (E2, 50.625 to 61.875 Degrees): Profile, Samagri and Remedies
Parjanya, the cloud and rain devta (megh, badal) at E2 next to Shikhi, brings rain, productivity and fertility and fulfils plans and wishes like a kalpavriksha. It is the doctor of crops, people and animals.
Vastu Devtaशिखी देवता
Shikhi Devta (E1, 39.375 to 50.625 Degrees): Profile, Samagri and Remedies
Shikhi, also called Shiva, is the first outer devta of the pishach bhoomi, at E1 near the North-East corner. A mahayogi and a highly sensitive maha-dowser, its pad reacts at once to anything done there; it governs vision, foresight and decisions.
Vastu Devtaजयंत देवता
Jayant Devta (E3, 61.875 to 73.125 Degrees): Profile, Samagri and Remedies
Jayant, the third devta of the East (pad E3, in the outer paishachik ring), is the success-maker who completes any work by any means (saam, daam, dand, bhed) while following dharma, and converts knowledge into wealth. Its door is called the vipul sampada (abundant wealth) door because the grace of the Moon on this pad is very strong.
Vastu Devtaमहेंद्र देवता
Mahendra Devta (E4, 73.125 to 84.375 Degrees): Profile, Samagri and Remedies
Mahendra (Indra), the fourth devta of the East, is the king, sustainer and administrator who brings the energy of the planets, Sun, Moon and 27 nakshatras to earth and spreads it evenly through the house. It gives control over the mind and senses, right decisions, government support, contacts, name and fame.
Vastu Devtaसूर्य देवता
Surya Devta (E5, 84.375 to 95.625 Degrees): Profile, Samagri and Remedies
Surya, the fifth devta at the centre of the East, lights the three worlds, destroys darkness and negativity, gives energy to all planets and never misses its time. Balanced, it gives fearlessness, good decisions, speaking power, fame, leadership, government support and perfect time management.
Predictionदहलीज
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.
Principle
Astro Vastu: Choose Facing, Rooms and Door by the Owner's Horoscope
No facing is good or bad for everyone. The direction of the house, the main door and each room are chosen from the owner's horoscope, so that the person lives in the zone of his strongest planet and avoids the zones of weak or afflicted planets.
Principle
Main Door and Dehleez Must Be Level and Upright
Even a main door placed on a correct pad such as E3 or E4 gives no result if its threshold (dehleez) is not at water level or the door leans. A door leaning outward slowly empties the house, and one leaning inward invites illness.
Principle
Types of Doors: Boundary, Main, Chamber and Combination Doors
There are 32 door positions, chosen with the help of the nine planets and twelve rashis, and the right one depends on whether the building is a home or a particular industry. Doors are studied as the boundary wall door, the main door, the main chamber door and the combination door.
Principle
A New Door Must Suit the Owner's Running Dasha
A door that strengthens one element can ruin an owner whose running planetary period belongs to the opposite element. A new door that raised the fire element was opened for a sweet maker while his Moon (water) antardasha was running, and water and fire, being anti-elements, brought his business to zero.
Principle
Never Break a Wall to Cut a New Door or Shift a Staircase
However wrongly a staircase is placed, it should not be broken and shifted, and no wall should be broken to make a new door; doing so creates serious trouble.
Principle
Sun Pictures Only in the East; Never Shani Dev Facing the House
Pictures of the Sun, including the popular Sun with running horses, belong only in the East. A Sun-like figure with a moustache is Shani Dev, and installing his image on gates facing the house brought incurable illness to one family member after another.
Principle
Shape and Centre of Upper Floors and Partly Built Plots
Each floor is judged from its own base: the ground floor from its foundation and an upper floor from the floor it stands on. The centre of every floor follows its own carpet area, and a smaller upper floor does not make the plot cut.
Principleमनुष्य भूमि
Manushya Bhoomi: What to Build, and No Pits at the Pishach Transition Points
The manushya bhoomi, the second band inward, takes the main door, windows, kitchen, bedrooms, dining room, puja room and stairs. No shilanyas, boring or pit should be made in it, and above all not at the corners of its transition with the pishach bhoomi, where the shishu pishach and pishacha points lie.
Principleब्रह्मस्थान दोष
Never in the Brahmasthan: Stairs, Main Door, Locker, Pits, Basement or Kitchen
Stairs, the main door, a locker, a pit, boring or dug well, a basement confined to the centre, a store room, a garage or a kitchen must not be built in the Brahmasthan. Each causes serious harm, from illness in the family to quarrels and ruin.
Principleवायु तत्व
Air Element (Vayu Tatva): Attributes, Zone and Effects in the House
The air element is flag-shaped, green, located in the North-West and ruled by Saturn; in a house it is the main door, windows, balcony, garden, plants and floor-to-slab height. Balanced, it gives speed, courage, patience and risk-taking capacity; imbalanced, it delays every work.
Principle
Morning Sun at the Main Door Energises the House for 24 Hours
The early morning sun, arriving at a particular angle at the main door, fills a correctly placed entrance with energy that keeps the house and its people alert for the whole day and night.
Principle
The House Breathes Through the Main Door Like a Nose
A house breathes through its main door just as a person breathes through the nostrils, so the main door has the greatest importance for the air element of the house.
Questions and answers
All 105 questionsIn a new flat handed over by the builder the toilet seat is already fitted but is not level. How can it be corrected?
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.
In some apartments the main door is level but is built askew in the wall section. Is that acceptable?
No, such a door is not considered right, and the occupants usually face sudden obstacles in work or sudden health issues. Get the door made straight; treatments for cases where that cannot be done are taught later.
When several people live in a house, whose horoscope decides the facing and the main door, and how long does a house affect the family?
The griha swami's (house owner's) horoscope is used; the method is taught in the astro Vastu classes. The effect of a house carries on for up to three generations.
When zoning a factory, how are the boundary wall gate and the main factory door each checked?
For the boundary wall door, zone the whole plot; for the main door, zone the constructed area. The main door is the one through which you actually enter the house or factory building, not the boundary wall gate through which a vehicle enters, and both should fall on good pads, the main door above all.
For a plot of, say, 33 x 70 that is not fully built, do we take the whole plot or only the constructed part?
Take the constructed area. For the boundary wall gate the centre of the whole plot is used, and for the main door the centre of the constructed area; this is taught in planning.
A house has its entry in the Agni kon (South-East), an underground water tank in the South-East with the stairs over it, and the slope running to the South. The family fights constantly. What is the remedy?
Either leave the house or treat it: close the South-East underground water tank immediately and correct the slope. The staircase can stay. An overhead tank in the South-East is acceptable.
Do we need to know the facing of the house to take its degree?
No. The facing is the side of the main door, opening or road, and using it is only one easy way to read the degree. What matters is to find where North lies; once one direction is known, the rest follow at 90 degree steps.
In villas, kothis and farmhouses with a boundary wall and open land, is the centre taken of the constructed area or of the whole plot?
Both, for different purposes. The whole plot inside the boundary wall is used for the boundary gate and for placing parking, servant quarters, pet shelters and guard rooms, while the house is zoned on its constructed area alone, which decides its main door and rooms. If the house is built almost up to the boundary, leaving about 3 ft, take the whole plot; if 15 to 20 ft is left around a 30 by 50 ft house, zone the 30 by 50 ft area for the house, otherwise half of its zones are lost.
The lower body relates to the earth element. Can an entrance in the South or South-West cause related health problems?
Yes, it definitely does. Doors and their effects are taught in detail in the door classes.
When does a main door built on a correct pad still not give proper results?
When the route to the boundary gate is heen bahu (anti-clockwise) or prishth bhang (circling the house), when there is any dwar vedh in front such as a T-point, shool vedh, pole, tree, pit or garbage, when the house faces a cremation ground, or when the door is out of plumb and leans inward or outward. In any of these cases even doors on N3, N4, E3, E4, S4 or W4 do not give their results.
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.
