The focus of this course will be to gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of fundamental texts related to MS & T. The theme explored is the effulgent Space itself is the store-house of energy, and the originating source of objects of the universe...Space – substance itself turns into two streams of material form – aural forms and visual forms – this is the statement on the secret of space science. We use this secret in mathematical form to build temples, homes, villages, towns, music, poetry, dance and sculpture and a myriad of other forms. This course will include a study and analysis of three advanced texts by Dr. V. Ganapati Sthapati: Temples of

Space Science, The Scientific Edifice of Brihadeeswarara Temple, and Significance of Vimanam and Gopuram and other assigned text.

What is Vastu architecture not?

With respect for all branches of knowledge we place it in categories according to its usefulness to human life. Some are simply fraud, some are amusing in its naive approach, others have limited value. Authentic Vastu architecture is not Indian Feng Shui, not new age woo woo anything, not mixed up or incomplete knowledge of Vastu.

Authentic Vastu architecture is not trying to fix anything by moving objects around in the building such as mirrors, chairs, tables or selling devices such as pyramids or objects of supernatural powers to correct or enhance some kind of energy.

woo woo is a no no for seekers ofauthentic knowledge.

The perfect mathematics of nature

Unmanifest energy is made manifest through a process of mathematics and proportions. An exaple: Human body or any organism.

Nature knows how to manifest in the perfect way. The key to the perfection is orderliness and specificity according to mathematical laws. The outcome is beauty and functionality. Nothing is at random.

Mamuny Mayan knew how nature manifests and used the same formula, thus revealing how to create perfect buildings, that is, buildings that resonate coherence and maximum well being for the inhabitant.

Nature does not create at random

Page 30: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

30

Manifestation process

Nature manifests from within, from wholeness to parts. Energy manifests as form from within space itself through quantifiable steps of frequency. Mayonic science names this process vastureeva vaastu.

Likewise, vaastu architecture locates the source of energy in unmanifest space-time and making use of the mathematics of the manifestation process knows BEFOREHAND what quality comes out of specific size and

Page 31: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

31

resonance

That quality should resonate with the inhabitant of the structure. The source of the individual is his heart and the source of the building is the silent middle point of the structure, it´s heart. From heart to heart is the resonance manifested through mathematics of frequency just like two tuning forks vibrating in harmony.

Page 32: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

32

Tuning frequency

Since nothing is at random, it is the size of the motherwall that tunes the quality, that is, the frequency, of the building. Think of the motherwall as a musical instrument. We tune a string looking for a specific note. The note has a quality and that quality is it´s frequency. When we have the frequency, the note, we build a scale that is the proportions of the music

33

Page 33: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

33

MotherwallJust like that we define size of the motherwall and then use specific method to build the scale, the proportions of the building. All organisms have an internal harmony of proportions. The beauty and functionality of the structure we build is absolutely based on the internal harmony of proportions as well as location.

Page 34: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

34

LocationNothing is at random. The heart of the individual is located at the perfect place. No other place is possible. Just like that is the every thing in the building located at the right spot. The silent middle space of the building is the source of the more manifest qualities, the building blocks of all life on earth, air, fire, water and earth. 35

Page 35: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

35

SummarySpecific quality of energy, made manifest by mathematical laws of nature, creating resonance, harmony, with the inhabitant, thus empowering all positive qualities of life. The basis of Vaastu architecture is optimal well being of the inhabitant on all levels of life.

Vastu consultantWhat does she do?

She or he:

Makes assessment of the owners needs and desires

Finds the most suitable spot for the building

Finds the most suitable motherwall for the inhabitants, the basis for the design

Supervises and coordinates the process of design

Orients the building in the most suitable way

Supervises every step in the building process

Page 44: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

44

Assessment of needs

The owner has desires and needs to me met and consolidated against financial, building regulation and other limitations there may be.

Proper assessment of needs of the owner(s) is the basis for successful building project.

Page 45: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

45

Site selection

It is very important to select a building site that emanates positive qualities such as beauty, fertility, peace, cleanliness et.c. from the earth and surrounding area. The quality of the site is examined by investigation of numerous factors such as soil quality, vegetation, slope of site, flow of underground water, ambience of site et.c.

Page 46: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

Page 47: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

47

Calculation

Finding the most suitable motherwall involves calculation that is the basis for the forthcoming design of the house that involves, proportions, main entrance, facing of the building towards a cardinal direction et.c.

Page 48: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

48

Orientation

The building should be oriented right on the cardinal directions to be in harmony with the energy grid of the earth aligned to true north.

This, as all other aspects of Vaastu architecture, requires high degree of precision.

Page 49: Student Portfolio Bjorn pdf

Supervision

Once she or he has:

found the optimal building spot, designed the building with a team of engeeners and architects and that design has passed quality control assessment by the AUM, coordinating this whole process of design.

Then it is the job of the Vastu consultant to supervise the building process, making sure that the building is built ACCORDING TO THE DESIGN.

Supervision

The process of design involves:

Drawings of architecture and engineering that involves structural calculations, electricity, plumbing, heating and ventilation.

The process of building involves:

coordination of and supervision of all tradesmen and builders that partake in the building process.

Inspiration Any form of art, be it music, dance, poetry, sculpture or architecture, that has the power to uplift us comes from the same source of life. We can call it simplicity, harmony and beauty and it affects us because it resonates with our source, our heart.

You may want to manifest from that source and resonate with that manisfestation and enjoy spiritual bliss.
