Vastu Vidya is one of the most valuable treasures of ancient Indian knowledge. The word Vastu means to dwell and Vidya means science, so Vastu Vidya is the sacred science related to designing and building houses. Vastu is rooted in Vedic philosophy, which emerged around 4,500 years ago. Many believe that Vastu is the distant ancestor of Feng Shui, the Chinese art of geomancy. Like Feng Shui, Vastu aims to restore the blance between the home (the microcosm) and the cosmos (the macrocosm), bringing health, wealth, and happiness. I have built and used these principles for over 30 years. I traveled to India at 16 years old and returned to America and built the First Hindu Temple, community in the America.
