Description - Vastu Shastra Explained: A plain-English Vaastu Shastra building architecture guide for those who wish to draw their own Vastu-compliant house plans by V Subhash
Most of those who build a house will do so only once in their lifetime. For this reason, it needs to be done right the first time. Even if you do not believe in traditional sciences like Vastu, you might still want to follow its recommendations just for the peace of mind. For the author, Vastu is a collection of time-tested architectural best practices that would be too good ignore. There are 'Vāstu experts' who up-sell the concept to solve all kinds of problems (totally unrelated to buildings) with their 'Vāstu remedies'. The author of this book proffers no such thing. Vāstu is about architectural efficiency and compatibility with natural elements. Expect nothing more. This full-colour book:
- explains the main precepts of Vastu Shastra straight from Matsya Purana.
- provides information that would enable you to develop your initial house plan as per Vastu Shastra.
- includes some sample house plans to explain basic Vastu implementations.
