Brahmasthan, A center is the “heart of the house. It is the main power spot where energy is strongest in the house. The Vastu center of the house is also called a distribution point from where energy spreads to all directions in the house. Many people perform meditation in the center to connect themselves with a cosmic orbit, hence it is a breathing space within the premises.
Brahmasthan – Cosmically Connected
Energy flows out from the midpoint to all directions and influences the energy in all eight directions. Each constructed space is a small universe connected to the cosmic universe. The life force moves from the middle of the structure to outer space and back again. It is necessary to keep this space free from any obstructions.
The centre of the house relates physically to your navel (nabhi-neval). Many issues related to health (weight gain, constipation, etc.) and wealth (instability, balancing, etc) are associated with the central zone of your house.
A brahmasthan is a real power spot
- The Centre of the house nourishes other areas of your house. Hence it is necessary to have this area open and clearly visible. It is a Marmasthan (center) of the Vastu. Vastu strictly prohibits any heavy structure in the center (Brahmasthan).
- A toilet or bathroom located in the center of the house (Brahmasthan) represents one of the most significant Vastu flaws, as it contaminates the central energy area with waste and stagnant negativity, thereby depleting prosperity from all directions.
- A pillar in the centre is a serious Vastu fault. A central pillar in the house, referred to as Brahmasthan, causes a notable Vastu defect by hindering the unobstructed flow of vital energy (prana) that sustains all directions. Brahmasthan symbolizes the element of space (Akash) and serves as the core of the home; any structural burden, such as a pillar in this area, compresses this open space, leading to stagnation of energy throughout the entire property.
- A kitchen located precisely in the center of the house (Brahmasthan) is regarded as a significant Vastu flaw, as it disrupts the fundamental energy of the home and is associated with health, financial, and emotional problems. The introduction of intense heat sources such as stoves, gas, and ovens causes the core to overheat, resulting in a conflict between the elements of fire, space, and earth, which disrupts the entire structure of the house.
- There should not be a heavy staircase in the centre. The Brahmasthan needs to remain open and light as the heart of the house; stairs introduce weight, vertical disruption and constant movement that stagnate energy. A staircase in the middle of the house is like having a hole pierced in your heart and it may result in a stressful life.
- A lot of current buildings have a secret column built into their dividing walls towards the centre, which can be a source of a serious Vastu defect.
- When the center of a house is missing in the layout, it invites lots of trouble for the owner and his/her family.
Centre, Open to sky
Many homes have their central area open to the sky. Openness is a key in the house as per Vastu. Such homes enjoy maximum Vastu benefits. It also helps in correcting or neutralizing any defect inside the home. The Brahmasthan is governed by the element of space (Akash) and is designed to be open, airy, and predominantly free of weight, allowing energy to flow unobstructed.
Important tips on the Vastu Center of the house:-
- Avoid the borewell, and underground water tank in the middle of your premises.
- It is not advisable to place bedrooms in the middle area.
- Stay away from the power plant, electric framework, or principal circuit breaker located at the Vastu center.
- Never plan the basement in the center of the premises.
- Central space open to the sky is highly beneficial. Ideally, the central area should be a living area or passage in the home.
- Avoid plants or rock gardens in this zone.
- Avoid painting a mountain in the central area. Such a painting will symbolically create a load in the middle.
- Refrain from placing a fish tank in the middle area.
- Refrain from placing any bulky objects such as cupboards, money safes, or couches in the middle of the residence.
- Industries should stay away from keeping machines, materials, or implements in the middle area of the workspace. Otherwise, intensive Vastu remedies must be implemented.
Remember, the Universe is cosmically connected to the central part of your place. Do not ignore any defect in the central zone. Keep this zone open and full of light to bring joy into all aspects of life, from relationships to finances.
In general, the house never seems to feel settled; individuals tend to prefer remaining outdoors. Consequently, projects are either postponed or fail to yield complete results in accordance with vastu.
Check before you buy
While buying a new house, get your plan checked as per Vastu before buying a new house. This will help you to avoid any major Vastu defects in the new house.
