It is a known fact that we all generally worship Vastu
Purusha on occasions of beginning of Construction of the building, laying foundation of the main
gate and at the time of entering the building since we believe that there lives
Vastu god in every piece of land irrespective of the size and nature of the
land.
There is a story in the scriptures about the existence of
Vastu god in the land. It is said that as a result of the battle that took
place between the demon Andhakasur and the lord Shankar a few drops of lord's
sweat fell on the ground which in turn resulted in the birth of a horrifying,
huge humanlike figure. On seeing the emergence of such a satanic figure, all
the gods were scared and approached Lord Brahma and prayed him for safety of
their lives from the mighty and ugly horrendous figure. Lord Brahma exhorted
the gods to fling the demonly horrendous figure on to the earth with it's face
downwards. All gods followed the lord Brahma's instructions immediately and
felt relieved from the worries. However, the demonly figure in turn prayed Lord
Brahma saying that he was part of their universe and his body too belonged to
his authority and the Gods therefore cannot throw him to the earth for no fault
of his. He then prayed Lord Brahma to do justice to him and also proposed him
as to how he can help the gods, his tormentors and promised lord Brahma that he
would be prepared to make every sacrifice that he may be required.
Immensely
pleased with the prayer and on considering the plight of the demonly figure,
lord Brahma blessed him thus:
" since all the gods have started dwelling in
your body, let them remain be seated in different parts of your body with all
their affinity. From now on you will be known as Vastu god — Vastu Purusha —
and all the people on the earth will worship you before embarking on any type
of construction: be it any kind of township, pond, lake, fort, house, palace,
etc., and those who do not worship you will meet their doom."
Every human being on
earth is accordingly obliged to worship Vastu Purusha before embarking on any
structure. Vastu Purusha is lying in each bit of land in the following
position. As blessed by Lord Brahma, a number of gods reside in the body of
Vastu Purusha. Lord Mahadev is seated in the head portion, Jaya and Adithi on
both shoulders, Apavatsa on the heart, Lord Brahma on the back slightly above
waist and so on.
As stated above, worship of Vastu Purusha is normally done
on three occasions — before embarking on any structures, laying the foundation
for the main gate and before entering the premises on an auspicious day and
time. Vastu shastra is for the welfare of mankind and have to be followed
properly for preventing any damages which may have to be encountered on account
of not adhering the Vastu principles.
The fundamentals of Vastu shastra are mostly based on the
effects which are created on the earth by the planet Sun. Vastu Shastra tenets
are based on five elements and in accordance with the position of gods ruling
the direction so that the occupants live in peace and harmony — with nature and
heavenly powers. The plans for the proposed building should be prepared taking
into account the Vastu principles and after testing the land as prescribed in
Vastu Shastra.
Vastu principles are based on five elements viz Earth,
Water, Ether, Air and Fire which are abundant on earth as also in universe.
These five elements did exist as part of the ancient Vastu shasra as they are
today. Adherence of Vaastu principles in construction of any buildings have
found such buildings to be sturdy and have withstood the test of times and have
remained intact — even today. For instance, Pyramids built in Egypt thousands
of year ago are still intact. Some of our temples which have been built long
long ago are still strong and have survived and withstood the vagories of the
nature. Infact Vasu Shastra has manifested itself freely in our temple
structures. The notable ones are: Madurai Meenakshi Temple, Tirupathi
Venkateshwara temple, Ujjain Mahankaleshwar Temple etc.
Vastu shastra principles give importance to the eight
directions viz , East, West, North, South, South-East, South-West, North-East
and North-West as these directions regulate the positive and negative energies
and each of these directions are ruled by Gods and Planets. It is, therefore,
necessary to follow the Principles of Vastu Shastra for the well being of the
owners/occupants of the buildings be that for residential or commercial purpose.
