Analyzing the applicability of Vaastu shastra under various climatic regions of India
Dr Nandini Kulkarni, Dr. Purva Mange
Abstract
Vaastu is a culmination of several aspects of Astronomical and Astrological sciences. It is considered to
be one of the oldest and ancient technique adapted by the Indian civilization. It mainly deals with science
of Architecture and tells how building should be planned and oriented to attract positive energy (Reena
Patra, 2017)(Shruti Soni, Soma Mishra, 2019). Vaastu Shastra is that particular science of building design
and planning which deals with the specified study and practice of the inter-relationship of the forces of
nature, heavenly bodies and supernatural elements in the cosmos. (Ankur Pandey, 2020) states that man
is regarded as a cosmic being who must survive in harmony with the other cosmic elements. It is not
merely an extension of religious affirmations or sentiments but a well thought out process showcasing
valid reasoning with explanation to every question raised.
This research focuses on analyzing the study of the principles of Vaastu Shastra and its applicability under
different climatic conditions in India. The landmass of India is broadly classified into five climatic zones.
Each climatic zone has its own set of unique character and hierarchy of influence towards the
surrounding setting. Each element of Vaastu Shastra will be impacted in some way or the other. The
primary aim shall be to look into each of these parameters finding out similarities and disparities across
climatic zones. Owing to the vastness of the topic, the scope of study has been restricted to the
applicability of the principles of Vaastu Shastra.
