Theory Of 108
The rosary or the mala which is used to count mantras in the Indian subcontinent has 108 beads. This specific number -108- hasbeen a sacred number in the Indian subcontinent for a very, very long time. This number is explained in many different ways.
The ancient Indians were advanced mathematicians and 108 could well have been the result of a precise mathematicalcalculation (eg.1 power 1x2 power 2x3 power 3= 108) which was thought to have a special numerological significance.
*1,0and 8: One stands for God or Truth, zero stands for emptiness or completeness in spiritual practice, and eight stands forinfinity or eternity,
*9 multiplied by 12: Both these number are considered to have spiritual significance in many traditions: nine multiplied by 12equals 108. Also, one plus eight equal nine and nine times 12 equals 108.
*Astrology: There are 12 constellations and nine are segments called namshas or chandrakalas; nine multiplied by 12 equals108. Chandra is Moon and kalas are divisions within a whole.
*Chinese: Chinese Buddhists and Taoists use a 108 bead mala. Which is called Su-chu. It is divided into three parts by threedividing beads, so each division is of 36 beads.
*Dance: There are 108 forms of dance in Indian traditions.
*Gopis of Krishna: In the Vaishnava tradition, there were said to be 108 gopis or milkmaids Krishna.
*Heart Chakra: The chekras are intersections of energy lines, and it is believed that are 108 energy line converging to form theHeart Chakra, One of them, Sushumna, leads to the Crown Chakra and is said to be the path to self-realization.
*Islam: In Islam, there are 108 names of Allah.
*Jain: In Jainism, 108 is the combined virtues of five categories of holy ones, including 12, 8, 36, 25 and 27 virtues respectively.
*Marmas:Marmas or marmasstatanas are like energy intersections called chakras, the only difference being that fewer energylines converge to form them. There are said to 108 marmas in subtle body.
*Meru: This is a larger bead, which is not a part of the 108 beads, and so, it is not tied along with the other beads. It is a guidingbead, which marks the beginning and end of the mala.
*Numerical scale: The one of 108, and the eight of 108, when added together equal nine, which is the number of the numericalscale, I.e., one, two, three… ten, etc. Where zero is not number.
*Planets and Houses: In astrology, there are 12 houses and nine planets; nine multiplied by 12 equals 108.
*Power of 1, 2 and 3 in math: 1to lst power =1;2 to 2nd power =4 (2x2): 3 to 3rd power =27 (3x3x3); 1x 4 x 27=108,
*Sanskrit alphabet: There are 54 letters in the Sanskrit alphabet. Each alphabet has a masculine and feminine, Shiva and Shakti.Here too, 54 multiplied by two equal 108.
*Sikh: Sikh uses a mala of 108 knots that are tied in a string of wool, rather than beads as in other religions.
*Smaller divisions: 108 is divided, as in half, third, quarter, or twelfth, so that some malas have 54, 36, 27, or nine beats.
*Sri Yantra: On the Sri Yantra there are marmas where three lines intersect, and there are 54 such intersections. Eachintersection has masculine and feminine. Shiva and shakti qualities. Again, 54 multiplied by and equal 108. Thus, there are 108points that define the Sri Yantra as well as the human body.
*Stages of the soul: Scholars believe that the atman goes through 108 stages on the journey after death.
*Sun and Earth : The diameter of Sun 108 times that of the Earth.
*Time :Some scholars say that there are 108 feelings, with 36 related to the past: 36 related to the present, and 36 related tofuture; 36 multiplied by 3 equals 108.
With Blessings of His HolynessBaba Neem Karoli Ji Maharaj
This Book is dedicated to My beloved Mother Late Smt. SudarshanSingla, a pious lady, who have enriched my life with her love and
affection and to my younger brother Late Sh. Arvind Singla, whoseunfortunate and untimely demise has shown me the path of Vaastu and
other occult sciences.
Preface
From the start of civilization man wanted to have a place, where he could not only get shelter from theforces of the nature, but also a place where he would have peace of mind, harmony and prosperity. Withthe passage of time man’s aspiration increased and after industrial revolution and the two world wars thespiritual and ancient knowledge became a thing of past and often being termed as “Old Fashioned”
Structures of all types and shapes started mushrooming around the world and attention being paid to theaesthetic aspects. New building materials started coming up, and efforts being made to get the best possibleand effective use of the space. At the same time little or no attention was being paid to follow theprinciples of Vaastu Shaastra., resulting in man living in a structure which could protect him from theforces of a nature and a place which has good exteriors and interiors. But these structures need not becomea good house as they were resulting in pain, ill health, lack of harmony, untimely death of family members,financial losses etc.
Vaastu Shaastra is a science which has developed with the ages of experience of sages and seers. It isfound in our epics also. The principals of Vaastu Shaastra helps in avoiding these mishaps and result inbetter life with peace of mind, good health and prosperity. Vaastu Shaastra is using the five elements of thenature in a fashion so that we develop friendly relation with the invisible but infinite forces of the nature.
A couplet from the Rig Veda says as follows:- Oh God of Vaastu we are your devotees. Through ourprayer we ask you almighty for making all the members and animals living in the house free from diseasesand also give wealth and prosperity for all.
Now we have become very conscious and are making all efforts in trying to regain and implement ourspiritual and ancient knowledge in our life.
In order to understand Vaastu Shaastra and its effects in our life, several books are available in the market.In today’s life where as on one side we are very busy and having little time, but on the other side our questfor correct and scientific knowledge has increased dramatically. Through this book an effort has been madein this direction. The basic objective of this book is to present the principles of Vaastu Shaastra in aneffective and efficient way. For this all the principles and findings of Vaastu Shaastra have been presentedin a tabular from so that it is easy to understand. The tabular format will help the reader in getting a betterand easy understanding of Vaastu Shaastra and simplified enough to apply in their life.
I sincerely believe that by following these simple principles, all the five elements of the nature and all thenine planets will start working in harmony and make the concrete house into a home, where unconditionallove will nurture itself.
While writing this book, I offer my obesciences to my revered Guru Baba Neem Karoli ji Maharaj and tomy family, I hope this book serves as a medium of blessed life for everyone.

Foreward
Vaastu or other occult science, somebody only believes in them, only when someone is in a financial oremotional mess, We too had couple of problems and consulted couple of Vaastu experts and astrologers,but one can only try to believe that It was a miraculous experience, which we had with Mr. Rajnish R.Singla, he described the actual financial, physical and emotional status exactly of most of our familymembers, just by seeing the maps of our offices and residence, as if he was going through astrologicalcharts and reading our horoscopes. He is totally different from couple of Vaastu experts whom we hadconsulted earlier, We were simply zapped on the detailed/ minutest explanation of the maps and what allrectifications he guided to us.
One thing which was most amazing that Mr. Singla told us that, there is nothing known as hereditarydiseases, In India, people stay in their paternal homes generation after generation and due to improperVaastu the son suffers from the same problem, from which his father or grand father were suffering,Vaastu should be an integral part of one’s lifestyle.
He covered even the smallest details, like wall clocks, on which wall it should be placed and should be ofwhich colors, which plants should be grown where, whereas a general Vaastu practitioner will guide youwhere in you should have your Puja Room, Drawing Room, Guest room or Bed room, a consultant can tellyou where to have your bathroom, but he will not tell you where should the mirrors be placed in the bathrooms, the slightest of the things effect the Vaastu of your home, hence once should be very careful, heeven guide, where one should keep the show pieces or paintings of different types in the house, so on andso forth.
I have known Mr. Singla from last 4 years, but came across this spiritual and Vaastu Expert side of him,just last year, I believe that there is a time for everything and your destiny and karma’s decide the path youtake, As you sow, so shall you reap, Destiny directs the Action of the individuals.
The Astrology, Past Karmas and Vaastu all constitute the destiny of an individual, out of this only Vaastuconstitutes 35% which is one such thing, that is in our hand, meaning controllable and one should tryhis/her level best to achieve 100% marks in this subject.
Overall He is a true master in Vaastu Shaastra, I strongly recommend all the Builders and Home Makers toconsult him before venturing into any new project.
This Book “Vaastu Shaastra - The Science Beyond Science”, covers a wide area of knowledge rangingfrom Selection of Land, soil testing to Final Mahurta of the Building. The Author Sh. Rajnish R. Singla hasexplained in simple language to gain Health, Wealth, Prosperity and overall blissful life.
I personally recommend this book to the readers and wish the author all the best for the maiden endeavor.

Vaastu ShaastraThe Science Beyond Science
Vaastu Shaastra has a long history of over 5000 years. It started when the primeval man wanted safetyfrom heat, cold, wind, rain etc. Taking the five basic elements into considerations he built a house ascomfortable as possible. As the human mind developed he started studying the impact of environment onhis house as well as on his body. The science of Vaastu Shaastra developed in a logical and simple mannerso that an ordinary person could follow it. The ancient sages and seers took great pains to write the books‘Vishwakarma Prakash’and ‘Vaastupadvinyas’. They are considered as the most ancient books on VaastuShaastra.
Our sages and seers devoted their lives in the service and welfare of man. Though they did not live inhouses, this desire for the welfare of mankind prompted them to study scientifically the ideal structure for aman to live in. Agnipuran, Vayupuran, Skandpuran, Garudpuran, Matsyapuran, Suryapuran etc. are someof the books which give information about Vaastu Shaastra. The deductions were based on the scientificmethod of experiment, observation and inference.
It is observed that Vaastu Shaastra is totally based on sunrays and the invisible effect of these rays. Thedifferent colours of the rays have useful as well as destructive effect depending upon their directions; theserays also vary from sunrise to sunset. The seven colour spectrum forming the sunrays are differentgoddesses of power and are known as Parjanya, Kashyap, Mahendra, Surya, Satya, Bhrush and Nabhasrespectively. Different sages and seers studied extensively, the properties of these rays and named themKanchansam, Sphatic-Nirmal, Indranil, Vaidurya, Padmarag, Vajrak and Brahmatej. These seven rays areknown as Sapta Devta (the seven Gods). Therefore, even the day is divided into seven parts. BrahmaMahurta, Usha kaal, Arun kaal, Prathasanghav kaal, Madhyanha kaal, Apranha kaal, Sayan kaal.
The early morning time, from 3.00 a.m. to 4.30 a.m. is known as Brahma Mahurta; Lord Indra is the mainGod of this time. Lord Indra is the king of Gods. He is also the God of truth, destroyer of darkness andleads to the light of the truth. Therefore this period is considered as the most auspicious period for theworship of God. During this period the ozone content in the air is large. Ozone gives new strength tohuman cells. This period is also known as Amrit Vela, because as per the scientists the Oxygen content inthe air, rises from 21% to 41%, which when inhaled, works like a boon for the human body.
Morning 4.30 a.m. to 6.00 a.m. is Usha kaal. The whole universe is filled with new vigour and vitality. Theanimals and the birds start their daily routine in this period. Kashyap is the God of this period.
Morning 6.00 a.m. to 9.00 a.m. is the period when sunrays are spread everywhere. The man and theanimals start their life with new vigour and enthusiasm, Mahendra is the God of this period known as Arunkaal.
Morning 9.00 a.m. to 12.00 noon is the period known as Prathasanghav. The speed of work of manincrease in this period. The sun is the chief God of this time.
From 12.00 noon to 3.00 p.m. the period is known as Madhyanha. Satya (Truth) is the God of this period.During this period sun rays are moving towards the west. These rays are not helpful to that extent for man.
Afternoon 3.00 p.m. to 6.00 p.m. is known as Apranha. The sunrays are tilted towards the west. These rayshave destructive power. Bhrush is the main God of this period.
Evening 6.00 p.m. to 7.30 p.m. is known as Sayan kaal. Nabhas is the God of this period. Men and animalsreturn home after the days work. The sunlight goes on diminishing and the empire of darkness spreads.
As per Vaastu Shaastra, ‘Vaastu Shatpati’ that is ‘Vaastu Purush’ is always in action in all types ofbuildings. In Matsyapuran some very interesting stories of Vaastu Purush and his worship are narrated.
In the early ages Lord Mahadev (Shiva) was at war with a devil named ‘Andhak’. The war continued foryears. After Mahadev (Shiva) killed Andhak out of the perspiration of Lord Mahadev a great spirit(Vaastu) originated. The spirit consumed all the blood from the body of Andhak. Still his appetite was notsatisfied. He then under took penance. Lord Shankar (Shiva) was satisfied by his deep penance and offeredhim a boon. This spirit then started eating men and animals’ voraciously. All the mankind, demons and theGods were terrified by this. They went to Lord Bramha. Lord Bramha asked them to lay the spirit facedown. 81 Gods together laid down the spirit face down and sat on different parts of the back. When thespirit begged forgiveness from Lord Bramha. Lord Bramha gave him a boon that “After building a houseor any other structure, the people who worship you as Vaastu Devta and give you your share of food asBalibhog (Part of the sacrifice) you give them all the pleasures and prosperity. However, those who startliving without your prayers and offerings, you can trouble them. This and many other such myths andfables can be found in different ‘Puranas’ Probably these stories were included in ‘Puranas’ to make peopleconscious about the subject which would make them build their house as per Vaastu Shaastra.
We also find reference of Vaastu Shaastra in The Ramayan and The Mahabharat. At that time the city ofAyodhya, temples, water storages and gardens etc. were built as per Vaastu Shaastra. When Lord Ramabuilt the Setu (bridge) between India and Sri Lanka he took the help and guidance of Nala the son ofVishwakarma. Nala was a great exponent of Vaastu Shaastra.
We can also find proofs of Vaastu Shaastra in the Mahabharat. The Pandavas built Indraprastha city for theYagna. At that time, Maya, an exponent of Vaastu Shaastra, built Maya nagari as per the instructions ofLord Krishna. A big rectangular tank was built at the center of this city. However, it looked like plainsurface. Duryodhan thought it to be a surface and fell in the tank. Lord Krishna knew that the Kauravaswould win Indraprastha from the Pandavas with foul means. He had, therefore, asked Maya to build a tankin the middle of the city. As per Vaastu Shaastra, a tank, well or pit in the middle of the plot or structureleads to its destruction. Hence, Kauravas were ruined totally.
Lord Krishna was omniscient. He asked Vishwakarma to plan and design the city of Dwarka.Vishwakarma had built all structures following the principles of Vaastu Shaastra. The whole city ofDwarka lived happily and peacefully. As per the directions of Lord Krishna, Vishwakarma had builtDwarka with water all around it. Both of them knew that Dwarka would sink and submerge in water after aspecific time. The remains of Dwarka are still found at that place under the sea.
Even in Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa use of Vaastu Shaastra is clearly visible

The place of the 5 elements in Vaastu (Site)
1. Water: North-East is the Jal Sthana or the place of water- if a well or underground water storagefacility (sump) is built here, then the owner of the site is bound to experience happiness andprosperity.
2. Agni (Fire): The South-East is the Agni Sthana or the place of fire, hence the kitchen should beconstructed here and the fire should be lit facing the East, as fire should always be lit facing theEast even while cooking, performing a yagna or while lighting the lamp for God.
3. Earth: As the South-West is the hardest part it can be compared to the earth. The higher this portionis in a building, the higher is the fame and fortune of the owner.
4. Wind: The North-West is the Vayu Sthana or the place of the wind. Hence, a door, window orventilator is to be constructed in the West in North-West, without obstruction and the owner of suchbuilding experiences happiness, improvement in business and good friends.
5. The Sky: The sky corresponds to the middle of the building is the Brahma Sthana. It is very good ifthis place is built open to the sky without any ups and downs in the middle of the Building (Thistype of building might not be affordable to everyone, hence schools, hospitals, Governmentbuildings, Industries, apartment and big site owners can be built this way). Owners of small sitesmay not find this idea feasible, hence they are advised to locate the center of the building and buildit flat without ups and downs and nothing should be built here. Care should be taken, not to placeany heavy objects here.

Directions and zones
East (Poorva or Puurab): Pitru sthaan (Manes) – It should not be blocked, since it is the source of male issues.South-East (Aagney): Source of health (Related to fire, cooking and food)South (Dakshin): Source of wealth, crops and happiness.South-West (Nairuthya): Source of character, behavior, cause of longevity and death.West (Paschim): Source of name, fame and prosperity.North-West (Vaavya): Source of change in course of business, friendship, and enmity.North (Uttar): Maathrusthaan – This should not be blocked as it is the source of female issues.North-East (Eeshan): Source of health, wealth, prosperity and of male issues.
Every corner has been further divided into two sides each:North-East: (1) East North East - Eastern side of North-East. (2) North - North East - Northern side of North-East.
South-East: (1) East South East- Eastern side of South-East. (2) South - South East- Southern side of South-East.

North-West: (1) West North West- Western side of North-West. (2) North - North West- Northern side of North-West.
In Vedic Scriptures each direction is assigned to a deity (God) as follows:1. East - Inder, the Lord of Devas.2. North-East - Eshwar, the God supreme.3. North - Kuber, the God for wealth.4. North-west - Vayu, the God of winds.5. West - Varuna, the God of Rains.
6. South-west - Nisshan or Nirriti, the demon (I consider him only as Protector, not demon.This is as per Maha Bharat).
7. South - Yama, the God of death.8. South-East - Agni, the God of fire.
The Properties of the eight directions
1. East: The East which is Pitru sthaan should have more open space and should be low and shouldnot be covered at any cost and it done so, results in the lessening of male progeny and it becomes ahouse without a male child.
2. West: This place represents fame, victory and development. The West must be higher and a verylittle space must be left in the western side.
3. North: The North which is the Maathrusthaan should have more open space owing to which thefemale progeny is done good. Thus leaving of space is good for the ladies of the house and if thisregion is covered it has negative effects on the ladies.
4. South: This place represents money, crops, bliss and peace. The South must be higher and a verylittle space must be left in the South.
5. South-East: This place represents health, It should be made the cooking place and this cornershould not be closed.
6. North-West: This place represents business, mind and friendship. This corner should not becovered and it the North-West is covered it signifies business losses, enmity and mental tension.
7. South-West: This place represents character and longevity. In the South-West if very less spaceis left here, it signifies virtues, chastity, longevity and wealth, if the South-West is low and morespace is left here it results in exactly the opposite of the one’s mentioned above.
8. North-East: This place represents owner, children, prosperity and health. It the North-East iflow and if more space is left here it results in good health, wealth gain and bright future forprogeny. If the North-East is higher or closed it results in lowered male progeny and brings inmisfortune.
