A
building, whether it be a residential house or a
industrial concern, it should be constructed obeying all
the principles and rules given in Vastu Shastra.
Five rules have been incorporated in them on the basis
of the great Indian saints. By establishing them in
proper place as directed by Vaastu Shastra accidents and
loss of property and persons can be avoided. It is the
moral duty of human beings to work cautiously and
carefully and mould the actions and behaviour in
accordance with the set norms so that there may not
arise any sort of difficulty in his works or
constructions ever in future; and he may lead a peaceful
and happy life following the customs and traditions of
the society and norms set in the culture. Enjoying the
bliss of healthy long life with family, he may find out
the ways and means of getting rid of all troubles and
losses. This is possible only on the basis of knowledge
and knowledge requires experience. Too incorporate the
deeds and experiences of the forefathers or of our own
in current situations in life, so as to enjoy the
worldly pleasures is what we call experience. Happiness
can be enjoyed for whole of the life.
Therefore,
no worldly troubles and disturbances come in way of the
construction of any kind made in conformity with the
principles and norms of Vaastu Shastra. Diving troubles
can also be avoided or removed by performing certain
rituals according to one's own belief and religion; and
mental peace and self satisfaction can be achieved.
Just
as we think of the taste, presence of any worm/germ etc.
and benefit or otherwise of eating a plum before we eat
it, in the same manner we should be careful and think
twice before starting any construction work.
The
progress of any construction work is hindered or slowed
down only if it is not in accordance with the procedure
given in Shastras, where the good or evil effects
of all the steps right from selection of site to
residing in the house constructed have been considered.
Generally
it is seen that many cinema halls have been erected
without caring much of the Vaastu-Gyan. Such halls
remain incomplete and inspite of several efforts it can
not be completed successful; even if these are completed
some how, they do not run profitabily. Many Cinema halls
have either been closed or these are being converted
into a commercial complex or residential flats. If we go
deep into the cause behind it, we find either the site
was not selected according to the norms or foundation or
was not laid in auspicious moment, or there had been
some default as per Vaastu-principles in the
construction etc.

site should be properly selected according to Vastu
principles and confirmed that the land is 'live'.
