PEACE with the environment is a criteria for healthy homes and every resident should create a balanced surrounding so that his or her mind, body and soul are in harmony.
“This is important because we all experience physical and mental stress every day at work and returning to a home that is not in tune with the environment can add to the stress,” said Sunday Star Vasthu Sastra columnist T. Selva, who will be presenting a talk at The Star Property Fair tomorrow at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) Hall 4, at 2pm.
He said Vasthu, better known as Indian feng shui, essentially helps balance the man-made environment with the natural world.
Selva said Vasthu was a science of architecture and it could be applied in any space, enclosed or open, and it is highly recommended when buying, renting, building or designing a property.
Full attention: Selva delivering a talk on Vasthu recently. “When renting or buying a new or second-hand house or apartment, Vasthu recommends that one should check certain things before making a decision.
“The first thing one should do is to enter the property and stand in the centre with eyes closed to feel the ‘vibrations’.
“If the vibrations make you feel happy, then check the directions by using a compass in which various elements of the house face,” he said.
He said a potential house buyer should check which side the plot faced, the location of the roads, topography, plot extension and the surrounding area before making a commitment.
“A house facing north is favourable as it is on the magnetic axis and welcomes positive energy. Land sloping towards the north is also considered auspicious.
“A house facing south is average for residential purposes but auspicious for people in the food and beverage business. Land sloping towards the south is considered inauspicious,” he said.
Selva, who has written two books on Vasthu, said a house facing east was auspicious because it received solar energy and if the land was sloping towards the east, it was considered auspicious.
Selva said out of the eight compass directions, the only direction that should be avoided for a main door was the south-west.
On buying a plot of land, he said do not buy a plot of land that has a graveyard either in front or at the back of it.
“Such surroundings will only bring fear and give no peace of mind to the owner.
“Buying land near a place of worship should also be avoided, especially if the shadow of a temple falls on the property.” he said.
At the talk, Selva will be showing participants on how to choose an auspicious property and how to create the perfect home by rearranging a house.
