Summary of “Session4 Vastu Shastra BAR GRAPH AND 5 ELEMENT THEORY”
This extensive session is a detailed instructional and interactive lecture on advanced concepts of Vastu Shastra, focusing particularly on the use of bar graphs, mapping techniques, and the five-element theory to analyze and correct Vastu defects in residential and commercial spaces. The content also includes practical demonstrations on how to measure, record, and interpret spatial directions, elements, and their effects on health, prosperity, and relationships.
Main Ideas and Concepts
1. Introduction and Context
- The session begins with greetings and a review of previous topics.
- Emphasis on the importance of belief in oneself and the methodology.
- Encouragement for participants to practice and apply learnings consistently.
2. Vastu and Five Element Theory

- How elements correspond to directions, colors, materials, and energies in a building.
- Importance of balancing these elements to harmonize energy flow.
- Discussion on “anti-elements” and how improper elements/colors/materials cause imbalance.
- Use of colors to balance elements (e.g., pink for fire, white for space, black for water).
3. Measurement and Mapping Methodology
- Step-by-step instructions on finding and marking the center of a house.
- Use of a compass (especially iPhone compass app) to measure the degree of the main entrance.
- Importance of taking multiple measurements from different points (gate, terrace, inside).
- Overlaying a transparent printout of the Shakti Chakra (a circular directional chart with 360 degrees) on the house map to align and analyze directions and energies.
- Dividing the house plan into “boxes” on graph paper for detailed analysis.
- Creating a bar graph or chart representing the distribution of elements/zones in the house.
- Marking entrances, toilets, kitchen, bedrooms, and other rooms with their directional degrees.
- Emphasis on not relying solely on draftsmen; practitioners should understand and verify maps themselves.
4. Analyzing Entrances and Their Effects
- Entrances are critical in Vastu; their directions and placements influence prosperity, health, and relationships.
- Positive and negative entrances are identified by their degrees and associated energies.
- Discussion on multiple entrances and their combined effects.
- Symptoms in occupants’ lives (health issues, financial problems, relationship troubles) can be linked to entrance directions and defects.
- Remedies involve correcting entrances or balancing energies around them.
5. Practical Remedies and Treatments
- Use of color paints, materials, and placement of objects (like water tanks, certificates, plants) to balance elements.
- Specific instructions on kitchen counter colors and placements to avoid water-fire element conflicts.
- Treatment of “anti-elements” through color correction, placement of stones, or rearrangement.
- Importance of removing or balancing negative elements rather than simply increasing positive ones.
- Using astrology and horoscope considerations in conjunction with Vastu for better results.
6. Use of Technology and Tools
- Introduction to software and Excel sheets to automate calculations related to house zoning and element distribution.
- Benefits of digital tools to reduce manual errors and increase accuracy.
- Encouragement to use transparent overlays and digital maps for better visualization.
7. Group Learning and Support
- Importance of community, sharing knowledge, and helping each other.
- Formation of groups for discussion, sharing doubts, and collaborative learning.
- Encouragement to share knowledge on social media to increase awareness.
8. Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
- Over-reliance on draftsmen without understanding.
- Ignoring the importance of multiple measurements and degrees.
- Misapplication of colors or elements without proper analysis.
- Neglecting to match symptoms in the occupants’ lives with Vastu defects.
- Rushing through the process without proper practice.
9. Philosophical and Motivational Insights
- Emphasis on self-confidence and inner strength as key to successful application of Vastu.
- Analogy of a person’s true nature being more important than external appearance.
- Encouragement to persist despite complaints or difficulties.

Detailed Methodology / Instructions
Measuring and Mapping Your House
- Use a compass app to measure the degree of your house entrance from outside.
- Mark the degree at the entrance and other significant points (terrace, gate).
- Find the exact center of the house by geometric methods.
- Overlay the Shakti Chakra (360-degree directional chart) on your house plan aligned with the entrance degree.
- Divide the house plan into a grid of boxes (e.g., 1 cm squares) on graph paper.
- Mark the location of rooms, toilets, kitchen, and other features with their respective directional degrees.
- Record “anti-elements” or problematic zones with corresponding colors or symbols.
Analyzing Elements
- Identify the dominant elements in each zone based on direction and materials.
- Check for conflicts such as water elements in fire zones (e.g., black countertop in southeast kitchen).
- Use color coding to represent elements and their children/parent relationships.
- Balance elements by adding or reducing colors/materials accordingly.
Remedies
- Paint walls or objects with specific colors to balance elements.
- Place stones or other natural materials to neutralize anti-elements.
- Adjust placement of water tanks, furniture, and objects to optimize energy flow.
- Avoid using certain colors or materials in incompatible zones.
- Use astrology to refine remedies when necessary.
Using Software and Tools
- Input data from the house plan and measurements into provided Excel sheets or software.
- Automatically generate bar graphs and element distribution charts.
- Use these outputs to identify imbalances and plan corrections.
Practical Tips
- Always take multiple measurements to confirm degrees.
- Keep a detailed notebook or digital record of all observations.
- Consult with draftsmen but verify their work independently.
- Practice regularly to improve understanding and skills.
- Share knowledge and seek help in group forums or social media.
