I congratulate you for having in your hands this compendium of

knowledge and skill that is going to enlighten and fulfill your own life and also of those around you.

The ‘MahaVastu Method’ is meant to bring the light of joy, success, growth and abundance in your life and that of your beloved ones.

For more than 10,000 years, knowledge of vastu has helped people to live a fulfilled life. Earlier, vastu was used by kings and Yogis alike. Kings were always on a look out for the best place to set up their seat of power. They always searched for such places where nature and power of Ma (Mother earth) were in harmony to create a wholesome life for them and their people. Similarly, yogis searched for such places in forests and on high

mountains where they could reach the deepest state in meditation—the vast source of inner power. Even today, this tradition continues.

You too can tap the powers of nature and get Ma’s blessings right now, in your own home through the knowledge of vastu. Knowledge of vastu is like family jewellery; it is passed on from one generation to the next. If even one person in a family learns and imbibes this knowledge, it will benefit the generations to come.

It is almost two decades since I have been working for people from all walks of life. I have tested, applied and gained results with the same knowledge that you are going to acquire and practise of your own.

Through the 10,000 case studies that our MahaVastu team completed, I could unravel many missing links and fill various gaps in the basic principles and remedial techniques of vastu, especially in the modern context when the parameters of life have entirely changed, vis-a-vis to those olden days when most of the granths (texts) on vastu were written.

By applying vastu with this new vision, the results started coming in with almost hundred percent success. It is in this backdrop of new revelations that the vastu practised by our team became known as MahaVastu (maha means great).

I am fully aware that it has been possible only because of the insight bestowed upon me by Mother Earth to serve the humanity at large; otherwise I would also have been, at the most, just another contemporary vastu practitioner.

By successfully completing the MahaVastu Course, you become a member of a rapidly expanding global Vastu Family. The MahaVastu group is always there to support you wherever you feel stuck in life. Remember Creating an Excellent Life for ourselves and for people around us is our mission.

Having this wonderful skill at your command you are duty bound to untiringly work for creating a blissful life for yourself and those around you.

Every knowledge has only one purpose, i.e., to make life bet-ter, and to live in total joy. The knowledge which is not ap-plied, or which does not take you towards the light of wisdom

and insights, will take you only to darkness and ignorance. It is never the knowledge that becomes hindrance in achieving what ever you want in your life; but the ignorance, which is the hurdle in living life the way you want to live, to achieve your desires and dreams.

In practical observations and white working with scientific procedures of MahaVastu, what we found is, “These are the myths in vastu which prove problematic; cause lots of confusion, thereby, making it impossible to apply the true knowledge of vastu”. This knowledge is not new; it is with us from the last 12,000 years.

You can verify the application of this knowledge in the latest excavations done by the archaeological departments, not only in India, but through out the world. The documentation of this knowledge that we have with us today, spreads over 500BC to 1200 AD.

Ever since man became conscious of his environment and its effects on his being (effects, that control his emotions, intentions, consciousness, and, in physical form – his health), he has not only understood the effects of earth energies but also the space configurations around him. As compared to the time when he was in caves, the human consciousness has now grown in to a more complex phenomenon.

Human consciousness evolved at a very slow pace from 500 BC to

PREfACE

000033

Page 29: Mahavastu Handbook

1200 AD. From 1200 to 1800 AD there was a different kind of growth in the evolution of human consciousness. In this era, different thought models developed in the form of new sects and cults. The traditional thought models of life and the newly emerged thought models, which we call as religion, together created different kind of lifestyles and philosophies for life.

Apart from that the climatological factors also casted their impact

The Effects of Topography Topography has definite effects upon people and their affairs. Have you ever given a thought to why people belonging to a particular region have similar behavioural and thought patterns?

How is it that just by seeing the face of a person you are able to identify him as belonging to South India or Africa or South-East Asia or Europe? Does this mean the geographical features of a region such as its land, rivers, slopes and mountains affect the lives of its residents? Yes, they do, and because of the common space that they share they have common features. Similarly, the plan of the city also affects the life and nature of the people living there.

000034

Page 30: Mahavastu Handbook

35Preface

on the lifestyle of people. As a result of combination of all these effects, the living environments also changed accordingly. Yet, all those philosophies continued to reflect, in their core, the knowledge that human consciousness was carrying about her environment since ages.

In the last 200 years, it is not only the human mind and consciousness that has evolved to a different scale but also, it is the lifestyle also which has become much more complex than it was in those days. We are witness to last 20 years only; probably, mankind has never seen such a rapid change in each and every aspect of life that came in these years.

Taking all these facts in to consideration, we need to re-conceptualise our thought models. We can not live with the prevailing myths that have no scientific and rational basis. The word scientific, here, refers to any phenomenon or/and practical knowledge, that can give us the same results repeatedly with the same formula or established observations. We might not be able to explain the laws working behind them but, we can certainly, verify those phenomena with continuous observations, and also, by getting the desired results through the application of the same.

Vastu shastra (the technique of making your dwelling space fully supportive to your being) had been practised for centuries. In this book you will see the sequence of evolution of this branch of knowledge in this very period—both, the re-conceptualisation and innovative application of this wonderful knowledge. The author has endeavoured to put every thing about vastu at one place. On the one hand the reader has been exposed to the fundamental concepts of vastu; on the other he has been given all the tips and tricks to make him a vastu expert for himself.

In short this book is the manifestation of the author’s inner wish, ‘To make this world a fulfilling place to live’.

Traditionally, vastu practices reflect lack of a standardised procedure, especially while dealing with non-square shaped plots and buildings. No accurate diagnosis is made to identify the ‘root cause’ of a given problem. Precision is the most neglected aspect. Moreover, these are further marred by the absence of scientific and practical problem-

1. Improvements in Vastu Application

000035

Page 31: Mahavastu Handbook

specific remedies. Due to all this, people started perceiving vastu as a superstition.

There had been certain guidelines as a must: for example, the puja room and water boring must be in the North-East; the kitchen in the South-East; the head of the family should sleep in the South-West; girls should sleep in the North-West; and the central space of the building must be open and vacant. Because of these guidelines (of traditional vastu practices) considerable portion of expensive land and space becomes a waste.

Recent researches, started in the early 90s by Vastushastri Khushdeep Bansal, found many people achieving highest levels of success, despite their buildings not obeying these vastu guidelines. So, he carried out a scientific research planned on observations and comparative studies. He documented all his findings and worked out the reasons behind all such, hitherto, exceptions to vastu.

On the basis of this research, he designed a standardised vastu application procedure consisting of ‘four-steps to evaluate’, precisely, the good and bad effects of a building on its residents. He also discovered that, just like computers, buildings could also be programmed for manifestation of desires. He used paintings, photographs, sculptures, and various other objects for the purpose and named this as the ‘space Programming Technique’. It, thus, served the original purpose of vastu shastra—to offer a ‘habitable place’.

Khushdeep says, “I see a perfect synchronicity among these three

000036

Page 32: Mahavastu Handbook

37Preface

2. Vastu Works of its Own – Not Depending on Beliefs

domains of space. Close your eyes and you can see thoughts hovering in your subconscious mind; your residential or working spaces are also conveying some messages to your deeper subconscious. Then the planets (transiting) in the vast space are also indicating some messages.”

“For me, astrology is like a GPS (Global Positioning System). Positioning of planets clearly shows which routes of life are jammed, where there are red lights, and which routes are free. Let’s take an example of driving a car and reaching a desired destination. A desired destination comes from your desire or purpose (working of inner space); the car or the vehicle is the space that carries you there (vastu); situations in the journey are indicated by your GPS. However, GPS is not responsible for the situations—it only guides you.”

“You have the choice of selecting the right times, the perfect vehicle and the routes to reach your destination. As per your target, the conditions of your vehicle, capacity of the fuel tank and your driving skill, you can choose the appropriate options.

“MahaVastu works as a vehicle, with a GPS filter in it, making the ideal choices for the route to reach the destination safely in optimum time. If you are not clear, it also helps you to make choices about your destination. In short, MahaVastu provides you the appropriate space where your own inner space can work perfectly. Whenever we want to solve some problem or we want to achieve some target, we work in parallels in all the three domains of inner, physical and outer space.

But first, we must clearly define our purpose or desired solution, and then check all the three domains. Only then we can find a mantra effective remedy, which will lead to the manifestation of the desire.”

The most widely held misconception about vastu is that you should have complete faith in it to reap its amazing benefits. The fact, however, is that vastu is a completely scientific discipline. Like other sciences, the outcomes of MahaVastu techniques are not affected by your lack of faith in them.

If you touch a live wire what will happen? You will get a shock. You trust in God, but you do not trust electricity. Touch the live wire

000037

Page 33: Mahavastu Handbook

and there is an instant reaction. It is so simple. It is not a matter of belief; even if the family of the scientist, who invented electricity, touched the live wire the reaction would be the same. No mercy for its inventors.

Since time immemorial, man has been conscious of the tremendous influences that nature and earth exert in shaping his life. That is why, in all the civilisations, both are referred to as ‘Mother’. Since man basically has an inquisitive and scientific temperament, he developed through meditation, intuition and systematic observations, and so an understanding of the energies associated with the earth.

The directions of their flow and how these earth energies influence him have been codified into knowledge bases and on the basis of this knowledge, he developed vastu—the science of planning buildings of all kind.

The sole aim of MahaVastu is to help a building achieve the purpose for which it has been built. Clearly, MahaVastu is concerned with the flow of earth energies, which does not necessarily require our faith. It works with the right placement of appropriate things and activities at the right locations.

Even today, I meet people who believe in God, who do not do anything wrong to any one, who do not believe in vastu—still MahaVastu produces the same results which have been documented for all to see.

3. How does MahaVastu Work for You?

How MahaVastu works is best explained by: a) The Laws of the Universe, b) Influence of Stars and Planets, c) Effect of earth Energies, d) Concept of Five-Layered Human being, and Vastu Purush Mandala – energy-fields

MahaVastu believes that the universe is conscious and full of desires. One such desire wrapped in five layers creates a human being which is just a by-product of bliss or enjoyment or anand. So, one is always in search of anand, through fulfilment of different physical desires. We make structures, basically, to manifest that core purpose or desire. If we are properly manifesting our core purpose then money, power, comfort and health come to us as by-products, along with the joy.

Pain indicates deviation from the core purpose for which the birth was taken, namely, deviation from the natural flow. Restoring that flow makes us free of pain. MahaVastu provides us the tools and techniques to work with the universal consciousness and thus achieve the purpose of our life.

000039

Page 35: Mahavastu Handbook

4. The Law of the Universe

The Law of the Universe says that the world is created out of the experience of joy. The universe is conscious and full of joy. The vedic alchemy of space says that to experience itself universal consciousness (param atma) created the world, which is full of joy. Desire is ‘consciousness on a journey to joy’. Desire drives you and your life to experience the joy, and thus creates a new world for you. In this process,

40 MahaVastu handbook

000040

Page 36: Mahavastu Handbook

41Preface

joy creates the world. Even while experiencing joy, we are the creations of joy. Little wonder that we were created when our parents were passing through an experience of joy.

A part of universal consciousness (param atma) is human consciousness (atma/soul) wrapped in five layers (Panchkoshas) and manifested through five elements (Panchtattvas).

Every soul has one common goal, that is, to experience joy. The

000041

Page 37: Mahavastu Handbook

42 MahaVastu handbook

paths may be different: someone wanted to experience the joy of flying and hence created airplanes; someone desired to experience more speed and created cars. Similarly, the whole world is created in the joyous state of consciousness. The purpose of human birth is to experience joy by manifesting the core desire. As per Hindu philosophy, the soul will keep taking rebirth as long as it has not manifested its core purpose, for which it got separated from universal consciousness.

A problem or pain is an indication of deviation from its core purpose, for example, disease (means ‘not being at ease’) is a deviation from natural flow which is popularly known as health. Restoring the flow makes us pain- or disease-free. On the way to manifestation of our core purpose, we get money, power, comforts and health, as the by-products.

To experience joy or the Self, the universal consciousness created three things: 1. Humans; 2. A cosmic clock,

comprising the solar family and our galaxy

000042

Page 38: Mahavastu Handbook

43Preface

amidst the cosmos, to keep time of the events; 3. A total manifestation-ground, namely, the earth, which is encircled with horizontal and vertical energy lines.

As soon as any part consciousness takes birth as a soul, it gets programmed as per the position of planets and stars at that particular point of time. The chip (like the one present in a computer or mobile phone) carrying all that programmed information for our future is fed inside us as the deeper state of human mind, also known as subconscious mind. This part of the mind is responsible for all the body functions and the life we are living right now. All events and situations in life are as per the movement of planets and stars.

000043

Page 39: Mahavastu Handbook

44 MahaVastu handbook

5. Influence of Stars and Planets

Stars and planets, the objects of the external space (universe), are responsible for programming your subconscious mind at the Manomaya Kosha level. This creates the life you are experiencing now.

Your purpose of life, your goals, your choices, inborn habits, inclinations of mind, your reference points of happiness and pain, your own philosophy of how you lead your life, are a few parts of that programming, among many more.

The movement of the stars and planets in their respective trajectories act as a cosmic clock for timing the events in your life, and programming your subconscious mind. Man understood this secret 12,000 years ago. Since then, he has been studying stars, planets, and their movements, in order to understand the ‘core (or true) purpose’ of his being on this planet. This has helped him manifest his core desire and experience the eternal joy by focusing his attention and energies on his ‘true purpose’, exclusively.

Man has understood this fact very well: that the cause of misery and pain lies in deviation from his core purpose. To keep himself aligned, man has been observing the stars for ages. That is how the development of vedic astrological system ( jyotish) took place.

The word jyotish means ‘illuminated divine lights showing the true path.’

In jyotish, Moon stands for the subconscious mind and, Mercury is considered to stand for the ordinary conscious mind with analytical and reasoning faculties. Only in jyotish, the timing of events is worked out from the position of Moon at the time of birth. When Moon’s position is studied for seconds, minutes and degrees (120 degrees for 120 years), then a certain combination of all the planets gives an accurate timing of events. This calculation can be accurate to the hour for an event happening in one’s life. This system is known as 120-year situation method (Vimshottari Dasha Paddhati), given by eminent jyotish scholar Sage Parashar in the fifth century BC.

Vedic rishis (seers or mystics) decoded the mystery of life thousands of years ago. The most amazing part is that they mathematically derived the process of evolution for an individual, based on planetary positions at birth, their transits and their programming for subconscious mind. A

6. Effect of Earth Energies

deeper understanding is working out the evolution of chakras using the planetary position in the birth chart of an individual. In the application of

MahaVastu, the birth chart is studied from this angle. The design of building is then decided. Each individual horoscope is unique with its own purpose on the planet. Even Greeks in the past studied horoscopes with this thought in mind. This is done with the objective, so that by defining one’s purpose, structures can be made to perform the desired function.

The earth is the manifestation-ground for desires of universal consciousness (param atma) through human consciousness (atma). To manifest our purpose or the core desire, the nature, like a manager, facilitates all necessary powers and conditions.

The earth is encircled with energy lines, both horizontally and vertically, thus creating energy grids. Vedic alchemists recognised them as mandalas. They went further in this discovery; they recognised the usage of individual Mandala to fulfil a specific purpose.

In 1952, a German scientist, Manfred Curry, found these energy lines and termed them ‘Curry Lines’. His colleague Earnest Hartmann in 1967 found that diagonal patterns existed also and termed them as Hartmann Grid. They found that neurological disorders and cancers are due to sleeping on the crossing of these lines. He worked out that there are certain energy-fields on the earth that are responsible for the healthy body or the diseased body.

Hartmann particularly collected the case studies, which showed that all the neurological problems are due to earth energies and cross the intersection of those lines. If people are sleeping on the intersection of those energy lines, and particularly, if some water stream is also crossing that crossing of lines, then that person will have neurological problems or neurological disorders. If it is the only energy line that is crossing and the person is sleeping on it, whichever part is lying on that energy grid or the line crossing will be affected negatively. To remain healthy, it is recommended to avoid placements of all kind over intersections of lines.

As Hartmann said, problems are only due to sleeping over these

000045

Page 41: Mahavastu Handbook

46 MahaVastu handbook

7. You are a Five Layered Human Being

energy lines, which are called marmasthan in MahaVastu. However, vastu shastra goes into much more details. Hartmann developed certain methods to detect such earth energy lines and to avoid the intersections for sleeping. It is interesting to know that if you puncture the intersections, negative fields will be created and negativity will be present in that space.

About 10,000 years back, vastu shastra avoided the marmasthans, the sensitive points. Hartmann was able to detect these earth energy lines on the earth only, but in MahaVastu we have those formulae to check the energy lines even in the built-up space.

In MahaVastu, these natural earth energy lines are used as carrier waves. We, as MahaVastu experts, connect your space with the whole world, to manifest your desire—this is what Vastushastri Khushdeep Bansal discovered in the due course of his research. He says there is a purpose behind everything on earth. These energy lines and the fields in their grids (mandalas) are meant to connect the whole world, and become complementary to fulfil each other’s purpose.

A human being is a part Consciousness (atma) wrapped in five layers known as Panchkosha in vedanta. The layers are Physical body (Annamaya Kosha), Energy body (Pranmaya Kosha), Mind body (Manomaya Kosha), Intuition body (Vigyanmaya Kosha), and Joy body (Anandmaya Kosha).

The Anandmaya Kosha is part consciousness (atma) carrying the core desire with a purpose to manifest and experience joy. This innermost core-body of one’s being has a pure part of universal consciousness (param atma) experienced as eternal joy or bliss. Other functions of this Kosha (body) are co-creation like the creator himself, peak experiences of super consciousness and sexual ecstasy (beyond normal sexual pleasures).

The Vigyanmaya Kosha is the second innermost layer. It is responsible for all the new knowledge and intuitive functioning of human beings. The other functions of this Kosha are ordinary awareness for day to day intuitive working, which facilitates deciding what to do next

000046

Page 42: Mahavastu Handbook

47Preface

and how to do it. Only from this Kosha do you get intuitive solutions in intense situations, when the logical mind is not able to answer your questions. The natural function of healing inside the human body is also governed by this Kosha.

Manomaya Kosha is the domain of functions of the human mind. This is the central layer among the five Koshas. Its function is primarily to receive information through the five senses and process that information for manifestation of our core purpose. Manomaya Kosha has three layers as recognised by contemporary psychology. They are the conscious mind, subconscious mind and super conscious state of mind. In medical science, the states are studied in brain wave theory and known as beta, alpha, theta and delta states of brain activity.

Through yogic or tantrik meditations, awareness is expanded to alpha, theta and delta brain wave patterns, where an ordinary human being falls asleep. This is when alpha waves are activated in the brain. In an experiment, EEG tests (Electro EncephaloGram: an instrument used to record brain waves) were done while meditators were in a meditative state. These EEG actually showed alpha to delta brain wave patterns even while those meditators were in a fully aware state.

The conscious state of mind is responsible for perception through the five sense organs and then taking action via the Physical body to perform day to day functions. The subconscious mind receives information from the conscious mind and stores the complete information. In acute cases of emergency or through regular meditative practices, the Subconscious mind receives knowledge from the Vigayanamaya Kosha, which is called the ‘sixth sense’ or intuition. The deeper subconscious or super conscious state of mind is when a person is aware at the theta and delta brain waves. In this state of mind, a person gives instant healing or some innovative outputs.

The Pranmaya Kosha is the Energy body depicted by kundalini, sun and moon channels and seven chakras along the spinal column. Each one of the seven chakras is responsible for controlling different organs in the human body at the conscious and subconscious levels of mind. When awareness is extended to the super conscious state, then these chakras open up to perceive the new realities of the universe and

000047

Page 43: Mahavastu Handbook

start illuminating by healing all the body functions. In yogic literature, the level of illumination and opening of these chakras is the basis for measuring the evolution of an individual’s mind and soul.

Annamaya Kosha is the outermost and physical form of a human being—that is the human body. The Annamaya Kosha is made up of five elements (air, fire, earth, space and water). It is nurtured and sustained by food (anna), that’s why this is called Annamaya Kosha. In ayurveda, disease is recognised as imbalance of tridosha vata (air + space), pitta (fire) and kapha (water + earth)]. Through the Physical body, consciousness (atma) manifests the core desire to experience the absolute joy. However, due to the conditioning of social and academic environments, a person gets programmed at the levels of different
