Vastu Blessing for Prayer Room | | | | Prayer or Pooja room – Vastu blessing
One of the important area in any home is a zone of tranquility, a prayer or meditation area. According to vastu, North east corner zone is best suitable for the prayer room or home temple. This is a place that brings us closer to a our Creator. It can be considered lifting one’s mind and heart to God.
Here we can talk to God about the everyday things of human life, about our joys and sorrows, our needs and wants, our disappointments and pleasures. Prayer and how an individual prays is often shaped by religious beliefs. But one does not have to belong to a specific religion to pray. Prayer offers us an opportunity to commune with our Creator, draw on the revitalizing power of the Word of God, and to contemplate and more deeply appreciate our lives.
Tranquility zone is a means of helping people attain inner peace in this crowded and busy world. It works by creating an atmosphere in which mind, body and spirit are soothed and made tranquil.
Best time for prayer can be at every early morning or evening , a thank you for a good day, for warmth of the sun, for love of friends who support and assist us even on our bad or difficult days.
This is a space where human-made problems are left behind like a wet umbrella at the door.
If you do not have the space to allocate an entire room for pooja, you can set up a small temple on the east wall of North-east zone of the house.
Important things about prayer room:-
- Deity or image of god should positioned in such a way that you face east while praying the god. West is the second best location.
- Place water in the copper pot at north east direction of the prayer zone. Change this water daily.
- Light or diya can be placed in the south east corner.
- Photographs (pictures) of the dead/ancestors should not be kept in the prayer room.
- Keep this room neat, clean and clutter free.
- This room should be strictly used for prayer and meditation.
- Due to shortage of space, some house have small wall temple kept in bed room or kitchen. Small curtain should be placed in front of it when not in use.
- Temple should not share the wall of toilet of the house.
- Female member should avoid using prayer room during mentstrual period.

NONE of us would be here were it not for women! Guess it's just another reason I'm Buddhist and not Hindu. I feel sorrow for you in your and other's narrow thinking. It will serve as a karmic seed for rebirth in the lower realms. |

According to vastu pooja room is not preferable in storeroom and kitchen. But if exist…There should be a clear demarcation of the Poojaroom and it should not be used as a store. In case the kitchen has a smallMandir, it is advised to keep it in the North East corner. The pooja roomshould be neat and clean. Avoid dirt or clutter therein and keep it fragrant.

| | By Anonymous - On 7/13/2009 9:09:59 PM | | My plot faces the north-east and the other sides of the plot are the south-east,south-west, north-west accordingly.The corners of the house actually face the four directions. My puja room is situated in such a way that one of the walls is to the north-east which is actually the front portion of the house and this wall has no hindrance and only has windows to allow positive energy flowing into the puja room through this north-east. The other wall faces the south-east and this too is unobstructed. The third wall has an adjacent study room to it at the south-west and the fourth wall lies to the north-west. Since the east is actually the corner portion of the house i.e the north-east wall and the south-east wall meet at the corner which is the EAST, can i place my mandir and the idols of God in this corner(EAST) as according to vaastu or should i use the north-east wall below the window to place my mandir? Please suggest. Thank you. |
