| Scientific Approach to Vaastu |
| NATURE : Vaastu in actual sense is also an energy based science and only relating to the cardinal directions. In vaastu we stress on staying in harmony with the laws of nature. The movement of Sun , Moon and Earth, the effect of celestical bodies, Geo energies, climate, other natural phenomena affect our life drastically.
|
| FUNDAMENTALS : Earth acts as a giant magnet with opposing poles at north and south. Its geomagnetic field changes constantly. Changes mostly due to the effects of solar radiation. The solar wind is made up of positively and negatively charged particles.
