Vedic Measurements and Proportions

In Maharishi Sthapatya Veda the proportions and measurements of the building and the rooms are designed and calculated in the light of the general proportions of the human physiology and the symmetry of the Cosmic Physiology, using the ancient mathematical formulas of Vastu Vidya of Maharishi Sthapatya Veda.

This ensures that the proportions are auspicious, that is, in resonance with sun and moon and all the stars and planets. It is this subtle, yet perfect resonance between the individual structure of the building and the Cosmic Structure of the universe that promotes health, wealth, and happiness and ensures an evolutionary development of the life of every individual and the community at large.

Natural, Healthy Building Materials

Another important aspect of Maharishi Sthapatya Veda is building with natural, non-toxic materials suitable to the local climatic conditions. This includes materials like naturally treated and painted wood, bricks, rammed earth and adobe, straw bale, etc. as well as natural finishes such as clay stucco, marble and tiles, natural fibers for carpets, curtains and furniture, and healthy, natural, non-toxic paints, glues and wallpaper.

Also any harmful electro-magnetic fields, high-tension lines, microwave towers and ovens etc. should be carefully avoided. Ideally all materials and appliances in Maharishi Sthapatya Veda buildings should be pure and healthy.
