Vastu Tips
A small lamp placed in the center of your
hallway or flower vase are many good source to welcoming energy to your home.
If your hallway has limited space consider using hangings/fixtures/decorative
mirrors/artworks hung on the wall, rather projecting out from walk area. This
way we can avoid overcrowding of the corridor/hallway
Place
a convex mirror on the outer wall of entrance facing outwards for protection
from negative energy.
A
mirror facing the main door is one of the major hindrances to home and is
strictly prohibited. The reason is, that mirror facing the main door pushes
away all the good energy which is about to enter the house.
Buddha facing the front door is considered to keep the negative
energies out of home. Buddha has power to nullify the negative impacts at the
house.
Those who wish to place Ganesha picture at the main entrance
door should always place them back to back to ward-off poverty (‘Daridrataa’).
Water denotes wealth and
so water element should flow inwards as it depicts that wealth also flow
towards you. Bowl filled with water, flowers or lemon kept facing the main door
is considered auspicious. Make sure to change the water regularly.
Salt

cleanse and purify homes filled with negative energy. Sea salt is commonly used
to get rid of negative energy and to allow balanced flow of energy inside the
home. Bowl filled with sea salt to be placed in home

The practice finds its mention in Durva Tantra ( a tantric work on the worship of Lord Ganesha). Lord Ganesha the first to be worshiped is easy to appease and he is the remover of obstacles. As the scriptures says , he can be appeased by simple offering of Durva – grass which can be easily found.
All that is needed is 11 durva grass ,10 durva grass to be tied with the 11th one. Sit in a meditative position facing east or northeast in either padmasana ,sidhasana or normal sitting posture. Keep the durva in the left hand palm and cover it with the right hand one and place your enclosed palms near to the mooladhar chakra and chant 108 times the basic mantra of Sri Ganesha (Om gam ganapathaye namah).
After the above thing is done, One can keep the durva with oneself for 7days or one can also feed the durva along with jaggery to a cow. If the cow avoids eating the durva, it means one must experience the fruits of the impending karma. the relief comes from the worship of Cow with the above ritual to be done on Thursday.
