Ayam and vastu details SOME ESSENTIALS OF VASTU PLACES OF RESIDENCEIf one wants to construct a house and live in it happily for years, the first norm of vastu is Gramarvan which means a choice of the city town or village. The following are some of the methods dealt in our ancient texts of vastu, concerning Gramarvan. GRAMARAVAN: the syllables in Sanskrit alphabet are divided into 8 Vargas. They are Avarga, Kavarga, chavarga, Tavarga, Thavarga, pavarga, Yavarga, and Savarga. Method 1: KalamritaKeep the number counted from the first syllable of person's name, on the left of the number counted from to the first syllable of the village name. Divide the entire number counted by 8. The number Dhana. Now keep the number counted from to the first syllable of the person's name on the right of the number counted from to the first syllable of the village - name. Divide the entire number by 8. The reminder is rina. If dhana is greater than rina, the village (town/city) favors him with happiness in prosperity if he builds a house and lives in it. Dhana is less than rina, it doesn't favor the person. If dhana and rina are equal, it is mediocre. Example: - the name of the person is Raman. The name of the town is Bangalore. The first syllable of Rama is Ra. This is the 39th syllable counted from the first syllable of Bangalore is. This is the 35th, syllable counted from placing 39 on the left of 35, we get the number k3955. This when divided by 8, gives the remainder 7. This is dhana. Now keeping 39 on the right of 35, we get the number 3539. This when divided by the 8, we get remainder 3. So dhana is greater than rina. Method 2: MUHURTA CHINTAMANIAmong the 8 vargas of alphabet, mentioned previously find out the varga numbers that the first syllable of person's name and the first syllable of village - name belong to. Keep the person's varga number on the left of the village varga number. Divide the entire number by 8. The reminder is dhana. Now keep the person's varga number on the right of the village varga number. Divide the entire number by 8. The remainder is rina. Dhana should be greater than rina. Example: - the name of the person is Raman. The name of the city is Bangalore. The first syllable of Raman is 'Ra' which belongs to varga 7. The first syllable of Bangalore is (ba) which belongs to Varga 6. Keeping 7 on the left of 6. We get the number 76. This when divided by 8, gives the remainder 4. This is dhana. Keeping 7 on the of 6, we get the number 67. This when divided by 8 gives the remainder 4. This is Rina since Rina is less than Dhana, Bangalore favors Raman. Method 3: MUHURTA CHINTAMANIDouble the Varga number of the person and add to it, the Varga number of the village. Now divide the sum by 8. The remainder is Namakakaini. Double the Varga number of the village and add to it the Varga number of the person. Now divide the sum by 8. The remainder is Gramakakini. The Namakakaini is Dhana, while Gramakakini is Rina. The Namakakaini should be greater than Gramakakini. Example: - the name of the person is Raman. The name of the city is Bangalore. The Varga number of 'Ra' is 7. When double it becomes 14. Add the Varga number 6 of 'ba', now we get 14+6=20. This when divided by 8, gives the number 4. This is Namakakanini or Dhana. Now double the Varga number 6 of'ba' Example: . The village belonging to two 1st. If VARGAS LORDSAvarga sunKavarga Moon Chavarga MarsTavarga VenusThanvarga Mercury Pavarga JupiterYavarga Saturn(8 syllables) The two lords are neutral to each. Since the two lords are neutral. Namkakini is greater than Grmakakini. ElephantVarga. 8th or 12th name rasi is evil. The results are interpreted according as the number falls in the asterism connected with the as shown below: Head .the Nama rasi of Raman is Thula.5 . one should choose the village of the 5th direction from his own direction.griefLeft hand . rat and rabbit are symbolic respectively of the eight Vargas from Avarga to Savarga.4 .

Method 5: MUHURTA CHINTAMANIThe eagle. it is mediocre.wealthSecret organ . DIGARVANA: having selected a favorable village. Example: . the village belonging to the 2nd . Divide the sum by 7. which indicates wealth. one should not choose a village from his own Varga. Counting from uttarashada to chitta. Method 4: VASTU PRADEEPAFind the varga lords of the person and the village. if the two lords are inimical to each. the village favors the person. His name star is chitta. during Saturn's transit period. This when divided by 8 gives the remainder 3.differenceExample: the name of the person is Raman.Example: . Bangalore is the name of the city 'ba' belongs to Pavarga whose lord is Jupiter. So.moneyRight hand . we get the number 24. gives the remainder 4. The Nama Rasi of Bangalore is Dhana. simha. So we get 19. SnakeTavarga God.1.6 .5. CatYavarga. Each is inimical to its 5th Varga.danger to lifeNavel . 3 and 7 are evil. Those with Nama rasi of vrischika should not construct houses in the east. 2. 10th or 11th name rasi is good to him to build a house and live in that village. This when divided by 7. The remainders 1. So. Bangalore is mediocre to Raman. Bangalore is good for Raman.gainFace . 4th or 7th name rasi is mediocre. So. the village falls in disfavor. The eight Vargas from Avarga to Savarga respectively represent the eight directions from the East to North. the name asterism of Bangalore is uttarashada. RatThavarga.moneyFoot . Method 8: VASTURATNAVALICount from the name asterism of the village to the name asterism of the person. it is Medicare. If the two lords are the same or if the two lords are mutual friends. ChartChavarga LionPavarga. favor the village or city where in you intend to build a house and live in. 3rd.5 .1 . Bangalore contains 4 syllables therefore 4*4+2 =18. Method 7: MUHURTA RATNAKARAMultiply the number of syllables in the name of the village with 4 and add the number of syllables in the name of the person.a dad to it the Varga number 7. Since Dhanus is the 3rd from Thula.Raman is the name of the person. makara and mithuna should not construct houses in the centre of the village.1. So.

Those with Nama rasi of kumbha should not construct houses in north-east.East = 5Chavarga. ass. prosperity Example: . Therefore. elephant. gives the remainder 5. dog. So. bamboo. mars (7).construction. divide the sum by 9. the plot is good. If the ground in the plot is too rough for one to stand or if the clay is too hot or too cold. Example: . rahu (18). The name asterism of arun is krittika . And one should not build a house in the village in the direction indicated by the 5th varga of his own varga. It should not have bad odour of meat or liquor etc. south .Rama builds a house in hanamkanda in north. The plot is good if the colour of the soil is white or brick -red. The constant of north. JUDGING THE PLOTTEST 1: dig s pit of s cubit's depth and fill it again with clay. So the planetary dasa of Jupiter of 16 years begins. So the Nama rasi of arun is mesha. Arun's varga is avarga in mesha. south .West = 1Yavarga. East = 8Kavarga.Moon dasa (10 y) = gain of moneyMars dasa (7 y) = fear and distressRahu dasa (18 y) = feversJupiter dasa (16 y) = happiness.

Person's varga and direction. ketu (7). if the soil tastes sweet.arun is the name of the person. north = 3Savarga. The plot is good if you hear melodious sounds like those of horse. water fall or broken pots. So. 3 +2 +2 =7. 7 +8 +8 = 23. The results of planetary dasas are follows: Sun dasa (6 y) = fickle. touch and sound of the soil in the site. SITE EXAMINATION:The site before constructing a house should be examined to see if it favors the person with happiness and prosperity. Those with Nama rasi of dhanus should not construct houses in south.Therefore.

(2) Deerghayur Vastu: Declivity in the North and North-East sectors. A road running in between two houses of a person has dwara vedha causing fatality to the family head. SLOPES IN A HOUSES PLOTA declivity of a hose-plot means a downward slope of the plot. the evil of spearing road may be reduced or sometimes may be mitigated completely. The inmates of this house will be healthy. with acclivity in the north and north-west sectors causes long illness and diseases. A gate in the east north or north-east is best preferred. Besides these. See the diagram. Smasana vastu: acclivity in the east and north-east sectors with declivity in the west and south-west sectors leads to family extinction. north-west and north-east sector causes destruction or death. Syenaka vastu: declivity in the south-east with acclivity in the south-west. West and North-West are in general the accepted norms of Vastu. Here are a few types of Vastu plots which are auspicious having both an acclivity and declivity. A declivity towards the East. Plot of gaja veedhi: declivity in the north giving wealth. This is one of the evil most vastu blemishes. . This gives cattle-wealth. A korma prishtta plot has acclivity in the central sector of the plot. INAUSPICIOUS PLOTS:Pitamaha vastu: activity in the east and south-east sectors. An acclivity of a house-plot means an upward slope of plot. This spearing never yield good and benefic results and hence there is nothing like a good spearing road or subha vedha. Progakrit vastu: declivity in the south and south-east sectors. Any one of the eight spearing roads is capable of causing long ailment to the mistress of the house and other troubles to the in habitants of the houses. Plot of goveedhi: this has declivity in the east sector of the plot. causes vedha blemish. gajaprishtta plots and korma prishtta plots are also auspicious. See the diagram below where four spearing roads are shown. Argala vastu: declivity in the south and south-east sectors with acclivity in the north and north-east sectors gives brahamahatya dosha. with activity in the west and north-west sector makes the inmates of the house quarrelsome and undergoes litigations. shown in the diagram is mitigated if the breadth of the parallel road exceeds the breadth of the spending road. (3) Punyaka vastu: declivity in the east and north-east sectors with acclivity in the west and south-west sectors is auspicious. with acclivity in the South and south- West sectors makes the family flourish. a south-east gate for west simhadwara. VEEDHI SHOOLA (SPEARING ROADS)A Vertical road ending at a house is called a spearing road. Anyone of the four would suffice to cause fatality to the head of the houses. west and North West sectors. There are also plots with only declivities which are auspicious. Apadha vastu: declivity in the east and south-east sectors. A spearing road is a capable if causing evil effects even though it end at or crosses another road running parallel to the houses. A gajaprishtta plot has activity in the south.Plot of dhana veedhi: this has declivity in the north- east sector giving happiness and prosperity. The inmates of this house will always be happy and prosperous.The gate should be broader than simhadwara. a north-west gate fro north simhadwara are generally allowed. Since it sometimes causes death of the family-head. Plot of dhanya veedhi: declivity in the north-west sector giving wealth of paddy. The causes grief and distress to the inhabitants of the houses.

A north-east gate for east simhadwara.A spearing road may cover only a part of a house. prosperous and long-lived. North and North-East and an acclivity towards South-East. since the turn of a person from the gate to simhadwara is clockwise. The evil caused by any one of the eight roads.A vertical road towards a house is split running in the two sides of the house. The evil is also mitigated if the parallel road is longer then spearing road. At the most. with declivity in the North and North- West sectors forms Supadha Vasthu. with declivity in the west and north-west sectors of a house-plot is in auspicious. Vastu home should be done to the above mentioned deities. and from S.

Sthavara vastu has activity in the south-east sector with declivity in the south-west. If any defect or injury strikes any limb of the person. 100-fold division. He who does vastu pooja lives 100 years here free from grief and dwells in heaven for a kalpa. We find also in the classical texts. . pootana and paparakshasi. south-east and north-east sectors with declivity in the east and north-west sectors is inauspicious.
