Thus by creating a room for worshipping, we are creating a room to get charged with positive vibrations every morning and that energy will energize our environment, mind, body and soul. Our work efficiency will increase and so the progress, prosperity and peace.

This room should be designed carefully because when you do meditation, you should gain the positive energies and then you can feel charged.

BATHROOM

A Vastu complaint living place provides inmates a disease free and barrier free house followed bypeace, harmony and progress. Bathroom andtoilet are basic sections of house sometimes made anywhere which tends to give negativeenergy because both the places have a specific location according to Vastu principles. Bathrooms constructed in anywhere in the house leads to complications and severe problems related to health and finance.

Thus it becomes important to abide by Vastu principles when renovating or constructing bathroom or toilet in house so that the results won’t disturb inmates further. Vastu rules for bathroom are as follows:

• Ideally a bathroom can be placed in Eastern portion of the house.
• Fitting of pipes for drained water should be provided in North-east.
• The toilets should be constructed to the west of the building or the north-west side.

• Shower and taps in bathroom can be attached on Northern wall which is also suitable for mirror.
• If there is attached toilet in the bathroom itself then WC should be on the West or North-west side and few inches above the ground.
