When someone phones from a land and asks about its energy, a trained swar expert reads the answer from his own element; when asked next about vastu defects, the element that becomes active points to the defective direction, such as air for the North-West and fire for the South-East.
By examining the active swar and tatva at the moment a question is asked, win-loss questions can be answered for anyone, anywhere, without a kundali. The teacher answered a journalist's phone questions on four state election results this way.
Swar vigyan (the science of breath) works even where Vastu and other sciences fail: a pinch of dust placed in a house at the right swar works like gold. Starting work, griha pravesh, treatments and land testing should all be done by swar.
There are ten directions: the four main directions, the four corner directions (vidisha), the upward (urdhva) and the downward (adho), each with its own dikpal. To master them a practitioner needs knowledge of about ten subjects beyond Vastu itself.
The North-West is ruled by Vayu (air), without which no life lasts more than two minutes. Its planet is the Moon and its stone is moti (pearl); it is the world's greatest messenger and gives travel and servants (helpers).
The swar a land brings on decides its best use: land that activates the Chandra (left) nadi suits homes, temples, schools and finance work, while land that activates the Surya (right) nadi suits business and industry. Land on which both nadis run is the worst of all.
A person who does daily routine work according to swar suffers only a minimal effect from vastu defects, however many there are, because controlling one's own elements is like holding the steering of a car.
Dowsing is the method of making an unknown or hidden object known, whether in the ground or in the body. The person is the dowser; a rod, pendulum or coconut is only a bridge that shows the movement, triggered by the hydro and geopathic currents rising from the earth.
Colour changes the speed of work: in a warehouse, the same labourers loaded goods from a red godown in about half the time they needed in a light violet one.
When neither the planets nor the vastu support a person, doing every daily task by swar still brings success: not tithi, nakshatra, vaar or graha, but swar.
The main door is the door of fortune: like the two nostrils it draws nature-given positive energy into the whole house and lets negative energy out. Its two shutters stand for ida and pingala, the two breaths that alternate roughly every hour.
Windows and ventilators work on the lighter, higher layers of energy and are needed to let negativity out. Place them on the allowed padas, make them open outward, keep them in even numbers and ideally two-shuttered, and open them every morning.
All windows and ventilators; a window and its ventilator on the same pada
The left side is the chandra nadi, used for stable and timely work, and the left hand represents the North, where Mercury, the planet of clocks, lives; so the watch is worn on the left hand.
When should the tithi swar be checked, at sunrise or on waking, and does getting up at night to pass urine count as waking?
Getting up at about 2 or 3 am to pass urine is not counted as waking up. The tithi swar is checked at the moment you actually wake from sleep; it has nothing to do with the time of sunrise.
In swar vigyan, which element runs the longest in every hour, and how does that relate to land energy?
The earth element (prithvi tatva) has the longest share, 20 of every 60 minutes among the five tatvas of a swar. In the same way, the earth element of the land, its land energy, carries 70 percent of the result in vastu.
Of all the land energy testing methods, which one is the best?
All the methods are good, but no method in the world is greater than swar. Many methods cannot be used in a flat, while swar can check a flat, a land or anything else. Learn swar well, practise it and do nadi shodhan; then you may not even need to visit the plot, because someone standing there can phone you and you can tell from where you are.
Why is left eye twitching auspicious for women when right eye twitching is auspicious for men?
The left part of a woman is always considered auspicious, which is why she is called vamangi, and moles or marks on her left side are also auspicious. In swar vigyan the Chandra (left) nadi represents the female and the Surya (right) nadi the male, so an active left side or a good sign on the left of the body is favourable for a woman and the right side for a man. If a man's left eye or a woman's right eye twitches on reaching a land, the land is very bad, because the sign is working against that person.
Can a swar expert answer a vastu question sent by message or asked at any random time?
A question gets a true answer only when the person being asked sits with a calm, concentrated mind and steady chitta, ideally early in the morning in brahma muhurta at his seat. If he has been working for hours with his Surya swar active and you ask at that moment, the same swar keeps running and no connection with your question forms. Sending repeated messages does not create the connection either.
If a vastu energy scanner shows a home as fully balanced but problems such as an unending loan continue, what should one trust?
The scanner reading and the results in life should match; if the scanner says the energy is fine while the problems continue, the scanner is at fault. The best scanner is the one built into you, your own breath. Check the home with your swar after nadi shodhan instead of relying on market scanners.
Should shoes or slippers be worn while testing a land by swar?
It is best to remove shoes and slippers, though wearing them causes no real problem, because the reading comes from the air you inhale after it meets the land, and you can breathe either way. Barefoot, the current also enters the body directly through the bhoomi chakra of the earth element in the big toe of the right foot, in addition to the nose.
In hand scanning and the coconut toss, when should the breath be held and when released?
In hand scanning, hold the breath only while spreading the arms; then release it and bring the hands together slowly without holding it. While throwing the coconut, take a breath and let it go as you throw.
How should the energy of a plot bought for investment be checked?
Use the pit water method taught in the previous class. With swar, walk the whole land: if the same swar keeps running with the water or earth element throughout, whether it is Chandra swar or Surya swar, the land is good.
Does a sinus problem or a cold affect the swar, and how can swar help a heavy cold?
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.
