The entire universe, our body and even our homes are made up of the panchtattva namely fire, water, space, earth and air and it is the balance of these elements that ushers happiness, wealth and prosperity into our lives. It’s important to understand that vaastu shastra revolves around the principle of harmony and balancing of these elements.
Any imbalance of the panchtattva results in unhappy situations and problems in our lives, both mentally and physically. For instance, water, as an element is related to conceptualization of fresh ideas, thoughts and clarity. An imbalance of this element can cause a lot of disturbances in our lives. This is exactly why underground water tanks should never be located in the southern portion of the house. Similarly, the air element is associated with growth and movement and the fire element is associated with money and recognition. Similarly, the air element is associated with growth and movement and the fire element is associated with money and recognition. In fact, one of the major causes of global warming is the imbalance in the five elements.
According to a study conducted by Dr. Padmaja, global warming is essentially an imbalance of the panchtattva or the five elements. She further reinstates that the depleting ozone layer is causing an imbalance of the space element whereas our planet’s rising temperature as well as the harmful radiations that are entering the earth, are all happening owing to the imbalance in the fire element. Her research has also helped her in concluding that the rising level of the sea water is a result of the imbalance of the water element whereas the growing menace of pollution is a result of the imbalance in the air element. Apart from this, the rampantly occurring natural disasters including earthquakes, tsunami and droughts as well as flooding are a result of the imbalance of the earth element.
Thus, there’s no denying the fact that when each of these elements are arranged appropriately in a given space, it automatically attracts positive energy, wealth and happiness. This is precisely why we must focus on balancing the vaastu of our home or office. Vaastu, when done in the right manner, can help us in creating a healthy environment as well as surroundings. In fact, by simply altering the vaastu of our home, we can detoxify our homes and attract positive vibes from all directions.
