Vaastu means the physical environment and Shastra means the knowledge. Together, “Vaastu Shastra” is the knowledge of physical environment which helps help in minimizing the effect of negative forces and can reduce the ill effects of these forces.
Vaastu is based on the principle of controlling two basic forces-“Positive forces” and Negative forces”. Any architectural design either brings in some good effects or evil effects on the persons inhabiting the structure.
The most important aspect of Vaastu is to reduce the effect of negative forces and to increase the effect of positive forces .This will help the people staying inside the structure make their life easy and happier.
Vaastu helps in maintaining harmony with five basic elements of universe which are Agni (Fire), Akash (Sky), Paani (Water), Prithvi (Earth), and Vayu (Wind).
Thus Vaastu helps in creating a harmonious atmosphere inside a building, house, commercial building, business place and in turn helps people to live happily and enervated.
