Every person dreams of having his own home, where there is happiness, peace and prosperity with his family. The beginning of house construction i.e. the time of laying the foundation is considered very important. It is believed in Vastu Shastra that by taking some measures before laying the foundation of the house, negative energy can be reduced and a positive environment is maintained in the house.
However, these measures related to Vastu are based on religious and traditional beliefs. There is no scientific evidence for these.
1. Start the foundation at an auspicious time
According to Vastu Shastra, it is considered important to choose an auspicious day and time for laying the foundation of the house. Many people decide the auspicious time for Bhoomi Pujan and foundation digging by taking advice from Panchang or astrologer.
It is believed that work started in auspicious time reduces obstacles.
2. Performing Bhoomi Pujan is considered auspicious
The tradition of Bhoomi Pujan before construction of a house is quite old. It is believed that by performing Bhoomi Pujan, the negative energy of the construction site is calmed and blessings of Gods and Goddesses are received.
There is a tradition of worshiping Lord Ganesha and Mother Earth during the puja.
3. Keep auspicious material in the foundation
According to Vaastu beliefs, some people keep coins, metal or religious material in the foundation. It is considered a symbol of auspiciousness and prosperity.
However, this entirely depends on individual faith and family traditions.
4. Keep the construction site clean
According to Vastu, it is considered important to keep the land clean and organized before building a house. It is considered auspicious to start construction work by removing dirt or waste material.
Clean environment promotes positive thinking and energy.
5. Keep in mind the main direction and Vaastu
The direction of the house has been given special importance in Vastu Shastra. Many rules have been given regarding the direction of the main door, place of worship, kitchen and other rooms.
Many people keep these things in mind while making a house plan.
6. Make an auspicious beginning by worshiping Ganesh.
Lord Ganesha is considered the remover of obstacles. Therefore, there is a tradition of worshiping Lord Ganesha before starting the construction of a house.
It is believed that worshiping Ganesh reduces obstacles in work.
Along with faith, planning is also necessary in house construction.
Building a house is a big decision in life. Along with Vaastu measures, it is also very important to take care of strong construction, right budget, quality materials and safety.
Measures taken as per Vaastu beliefs can make people experience mental satisfaction and positive energy. At the same time, love, cooperation and good thoughts in the family play the biggest role in making the home pleasant.
