Vastu in Sanskrit means ‘Nature and the surrounding environment’, and Vaastu (with a long a) means ‘the art of building in harmony with Nature’. The ancient science of Vastu is quite simply an art of protection and enhancement, avoiding Mother Nature’s negative forces while imbibing Her positive influences when residing or working in a building. Nature has the final say in every dualistic aspect of our success and failure, wealth and poverty, gain and loss, friends and enemies, happiness and distress, fame and infamy, are all proportionately issued to each and every individual by Nature. Having good Vastu empowers you to harmonise with Nature, balancing the positives and negatives that consequently activate improvements in health, wealth, prosperity, spirituality, influence, energy levels, fame, learning, and relationships. Apply the great science of Vastu in your office or home, the places where we spend most of our lives, and see the difference for yourself. There is virtually nothing to lose and much quality of life to be gained.
Although interesting to read about the 'origins' of where Feng Shui began, there is just SO much information in this book that it feels more like a Textbook. In relating it to your own life, without having a clear picture/ idea of how your home (and interiors) are laid out in accordance with a compass, it's hard to remember how / what the benefits are.[return][return]In the end, I would say this is a book for the serious/ scholarly reader versus someone just wanting to understand a bit more about Natural Energies and their impacts on their surroundings.
