To help the ether element bring positive energy and harmony to the residents of the home, people must attune themselves to what God and the Universe want from them. That is, to listen to cosmic guidance, pay attention to signs, follow intuition, act in accordance with time, listen to and read mantras, and do many other things. Also, to invite new positive energies, one must get rid of old energies. Therefore, broken, cracked, old items, items that are not needed, items that do not work or are in poor condition, unfinished items (which most likely will not be finished), items that one does not like, items kept because “there is no other choice,” and similar things must be discarded. Only those items that are used and liked can bring positive energies to their owners. Everything else is considered clutter. Similarly, one should free oneself from inner torments related to the past in order to attract positive situations into the present and future.
Movement of Energies in the Home
A harmonious Brahmasthan is wonderful, but it is not sufficient if there are serious defects in the other sectors of the house and around it. In every building, the directions are divided into two groups – zones of incoming energy and zones of outgoing energy. The zones of incoming energy are the positive and light sectors (the north, northeast, and east). The negative and heavy sectors (the south, southwest, and west) are zones of outgoing energy. The northwest and southeast are neutral; therefore, they are considered both zones of incoming and outgoing energy.
Opposite directions are connected to one another: positive energies enter from a specific direction and exit through the direction opposite to it. The east is the sector that receives pranic energy, and the west is the sector through which pranic energy exits. The north is the sector that receives organic energy, and the south is the sector through which organic energy exits. If there is any problem in the eastern part of the home, problems related to the western part of the home will follow. But if energies cannot enter due to a cut-off corner, a solid wall (no window, no opening), a wall defect, or other Vastu Doshas—or if they cannot exit because there is no opening—this will also lead to a problem associated with one of the directions. This is the reason why solid walls are not recommended in the sectors of outgoing energy. It is beneficial to have small windows there, in relation to the windows in the sectors where energies enter (the zones of incoming energy). In cases where the southern and western walls are completely solid, the residents of the home may become greedy, encounter fertility problems, and experience difficulties in advancing or in eliminating problems.
Energies in a building move in a circular motion from the center outward, clockwise, and in a spiral form. The movement begins from the northwest direction (the person’s potential) to the northeast (what a person thinks), then to the southeast (what a person says), and then to the southwest (what a person does). This means that one must watch their thoughts, speech, and actions, become aware of them, and work on them as much as possible. Through the proper flow of energies from the center of the home, we can improve many aspects of our lives.
