Tulsi senses negative energy entering the home and drives it away, and the air rising from it cleans the whole house, so every home must have one, especially in the North-East and the brahmasthan.
North-East and brahmasthan
Panchang means the five parts of any tree: its root, bark, fruit, flower and leaves. Boil them in water and watch whether any sound comes, like the crackling heard when ghee or oil is used for tempering. Quiet boiling shows good land; jumping and crackling show negative energy.
The amla tree represents Shikhi devta: in summer, on the day of Shikhi devta, women go to worship the amla tree, and that is really the worship of Shikhi. So an amla tree planted at Shikhi in the boundary area (pishach bhoomi), an amla in a pot, or even amla fruit kept there keeps the zone full of energy. A potted amla was also advised in the doubt session, since trees extend energy at right angles, as taught in vriksh vastu.
The sun's rays take about 8 minutes 20 seconds to reach the earth, and only about 55% of their energy arrives; the other 45% is lost on the way. Of what arrives, trees and plants capture about 95%, mirrors 80%, yantras 60 to 90%, pyramids 65% (which is why fruit kept under a pyramid stays fresh), water 60% (mainly the Moon's energy), metals 45% and stones 35%. Plastic and other petroleum by-products capture none, so interiors should rely on natural materials and on indoor and outdoor plants chosen for the planet of each direction.
No. What counts is composition and quality, not appearance; ashopalav leaves have a different composition, so they do not carry the properties of mango leaves. Mango leaves have many special qualities: their juice is used for purifying land, and where marriage is not happening or auspicious functions keep failing, mango leaf juice is applied as a lepan beneath the place where the girl or boy sleeps, after which the auspicious events take place.
While it is still small, offer it one almond or one fruit and request: O tree deity, this place is not suitable for you, I want to take you elsewhere. Pour cow urine at its roots, take it out with the roots, carry it with the fruit and plant it in a forest. Make a protective shield (suraksha kavach) for yourself first.
Only one tall tree is allowed in the North-East, the coconut, which draws cosmic energy from above and passes it down. No other tall tree should stand there. If one already exists and cannot be cut, plant energy-capturing plants such as tulsi in the North and plant tulsi all around the tree.
Varahamihira wrote it in his work on trees; no one other than Varahamihira has contributed this knowledge of trees.
Certainly. Drop the idea that there should be no greenery in the North-West or South-West; gardens and resorts everywhere have greenery on all sides. A vastu expert should never get a tree cut, because its dosh falls on him; plant auspicious trees near it instead.
If it is in a pot inside the house, give it away to a garden.
No fruit-bearing tree is meant to be an indoor plant. If there is a garden, plant it there, not inside the house; otherwise fruit trees bring trouble for the children, as Varahamihira says.
The coconut holds all five elements and captures the most cosmic energy as well as underground energy, passing it into the home without disturbing anything. That is why it can be planted in every direction, and why South India follows the custom of one coconut tree for every house.
The mango tree. It is one of the tall outdoor trees for the South-West, and being very pure its leaves make the bandanwar for all auspicious functions.
