The dressing
table should be in the East or North:
The Scientific Reason – The constant light from the North or East will
light up your face when sitting in front of the mirror, thus allowing you to
dress up well.
Study table
should face East, North or North-East:
The Scientific Reason – The constant light from the North and the
morning sunlight from the East will make reading easy, without much
straining.
Avoid Television in
the bedroom: If a TV is kept, it should
never be directly in front of the bed as it works as a mirror and generates
negative energy. It can be kept to the right or left of the bed at an angle for
comfortable viewing from bed. The Scientific Reasoning - A T.V.
does not encourage intimacy. In fact it only encourages people to become couch
potatoes. Also, the waves from the T.V are not good for your health and so
keeping the T.V far away is always preferable.
The safe should
be in the South-West, opening towards North: The Scientific Reason
– The heavy stuff is preferred in the South or West sides to serve as a buffer
to the hot evening sunlight. Since the constant light is from the North, you
can see clearly into the Safe if it opens towards the North.
Keep some open
space in the North-East: The
Scientific Reason – The Constant and beneficial
sunlight from the East and North should engulf
the whole room and not get blocked by heavy furniture.
Keep things
that make you happy in front of the Bedroom door: The Scientific Reason
– Upon entering, your bedroom, the first thing yo u see should
be something that gives you the feeling of peace and serenity
such as a photograph, a favorite quote or even flowers that enhance these
positive feelings. Keep objects that remind you of unfinished tasks out of the
room, or at least out of sight as the bedroom should be a place where you can
totally relax. It is obvious that things that make you happy will give a
positive feeling.
Beds should not
be shaky: The mattress should provide
good support to the body while resting. The Scientific Reason – The
essential function of the bed is to provide a surface which is neither too hard
nor too soft for the back. A shaky bed will creak and disturb others when people
turn on the bed.
Computers
should be kept in the South-East: The
Scientific Reason - The South-East is considered the Aagneya (Fire)
corner. The ‘Vastu Pundits’ consider electrical appliances as the equivalent of
fire and happily encourage you to keep all electric gadgets in the S-E of every
room.
Wardrobes
should be in the North-West or South-West: The Scientific Reason – They serve as buffers to
the hot evening sunlight coming in from the West.
Attached
bathroom should be in the East or South-East : The Scientific Reason -
Normally the bathroom is used for bath and other activities, early in the
morning, and so will be wet after use. If it is placed in the East side, the
morning sunlight will dry up the area and the UV rays will kill all the germs.
Avoid mirror
directly opposite the bed: The Scientific Reason
– When you wake up in the morning, all untidy and disheveled, it may be a shock
when you see yourself in the mirror as you sit up in the bed!
Avoid religious
idols: The Scientific Reason – Many people may feel uncomfortable to lie around with
their feet pointing towards the religious idols, as they believe it is
disrespectful to god.
Avoid Clutter: It represents stagnation. The Scientific Reason -
When you see clutter you feel helpless about it, and it just keeps accumulating
and becomes an irritant in your mind. Removing clutter in your bedroom will
help you feel more efficient and function optimally. To tackle clutter, first
take on small projects to help you avoid the feelings of being overwhelmed by
the task at hand.
Avoid storing
things under the bed: The Reason - The space under the bed gets very dusty and cannot be
cleaned often. Hence it is meaningless to store anything there.
