aLL aboUt vaStU

DoeS vaStU work In eUroPean coUntrIeS aS weLL?

vaStU workS aLL over the worLD, In every coUntry whether In the northern or SoUthern hemISPhere.

Do yoU beLIeve that the weStern worLD haS an UnDerStanDIng for the vaStU-teachIng?

the PrIncIPLeS of vaStU are UnIverSaL PrIncIPLeS baSeD on a DeePer UnDerStanDIng of the SUbtLe energIeS exIStIng anD workIng In the hUman boDy. theSe PrIncIPLeS were known In every ancIent cUL-tUre anD traDItIonS, anD theIr archItectUre exPreSS It. bUt thIS knowLeDge waS LoSt In every coUntry, anD we are reSearchIng anD reDIScoverIng It anD SharIng It aroUnD the worLD. I am very haPPy to Say that the reSPonSe of the PeoPLe to thIS ancIent wISDom anD knowLeDge IS amazIng anD very encoUragIng!

IS vaStU aPPLIcabLe for aLL kInDS of bUILDIngS?

vaStU IS a very DeeP ancIent ScIence that reqUIreD yearS of StUDy to maSter It. In every ancIent traDItIon the archItect’S PoSItI-on waS hIgher than that of the PrIeSt, he waS conSIDereD next to goD, not becaUSe of eSoterIc reaSonS, bUt becaUSe of hIS maStery anD knowLeDge of archItectUre aS a ScIence!

IS vaStU not jUSt an ImagInatIon or eSoterIc?

vaStU IS a very DeeP ancIent ScIence that reqUIreD yearS of StUDy to maSter It. In every ancIent traDItIon the archItect’S PoSItI-on waS hIgher than that of the PrIeSt, he waS conSIDereD next to goD, not becaUSe of eSoterIc reaSonS, bUt becaUSe of hIS maStery anD knowLeDge of archItectUre aS a ScIence!

IS vaStU not UnreaLIStIc for US eUroPeanS?

vaStU IS not UnreaLIStIc for anyone, aS the PrIncIPLeS have been LoSt In tIme. therefore It neeDS a reSUrrectIon, a re-eDUcatIon of thIS knowLeDge, anD SPreaDIng It, for oUr own benefIt. over the yearS we have teSteD anD aPPLIeD theSe PrIncIPLeS, aLL over the worLD wIth very SUcceSSfUL reSULtS.

can anyone Learn the PrIncIPLeS of vaStU?

yeS everyone can Learn the PrIncIPLeS of vaStU, neeD not be onLy an archItect. In the coUrSeS we conDUct anD are conDUctIng, there are PeoPLe from aLL waLkS of LIfe anD aLL eDUcatIonaL back-groUnDS.

an vaStU reaLLy heLP the heaLIng ProceSS for DISeaSeS?

what we fInD IS that a Lot of heaLth ISSUeS are bUILDIng reLateD, anD more SPecIfIcaLLy vaStU reLateD. In the SenSe that SInce Peo-PLe are Ignorant of the vaStU PrIncIPLeS, anD heaLth ImPLIcatIonS, UnknowIngLy we aS archItectS are becomIng reSPonSIbLe for not onLy heaLth ISSUeS of PeoPLe, bUt aLSo fInance, reLatIonShIPS...etc. yeS to a Large extent vaStU can heLP brIng aboUt changeS In heaLth, fInanceS, reLatIonShIPS, bUt not at the excLUSIon of meDI-cIne anD other factorS of PerSonaL Intent anD LIfeStyLeS.

Do yoU make yoUr correctIonS anD bUILDIng PLanS PreDomInantLy In InDIa or wILL they be orDereD worLD wIDe?

I have been InvoLveD wIth correctIonS anD bUILDIng PLanS PreDomI-nantLy In InDIa, anD contInUe to Do So StILL In InDIa, bUt aLSo have been eqUaLLy InvoLveD In PractIcIng aroUnD the worLD In DIfferent contInentS anD coUntrIeS. anD now SInce 4 yearS have aLSo been teachIng anD SharIng thIS knowLeDge wIth more anD more PeoPLe, In varIoUS coUntrIeS, who are So very enthUSIaStIc In LearnIng anD PractIcIng.

kInDLy teLL US concrete exPerIenceS wIth vaStU In DIfferent areaS, SUch aS heaLth, PartnerShIP anD SUcceSS In bUSIneSS.

heaLth reLateD ISSUeS are many. one examPLe comeS to mInD IS a famILy In nagPUr In centraL InDIa, moveD Into theIr newLy bUILt home. Soon after, the wIfe began havIng Severe PaInS In the LegS. for 2 yearS no meDIcaL treatment waS heLPIng. the reaSon waS the kItchen not beIng In the rIght PoSItIon – It waS LocateD In the SoUth-weSt. once the kItchen waS ShIfteD to the SoUth-eaSt, cookIng facIng the eaSt waLL, the PaIn DISaPPeareD for ever wIthIn 15 DayS.

another newLy bUILt hoUSe In kanPUr, north InDIa, the famILy waS a joInt famILy, aLL were PartnerS In the famILy Shoe bUSIneSS, anD were the Shoe kIngS of InDIa. Soon after movIng Into the new hoUSe, everyone waS fIghtIng each other, LegaLLy too, anD the bUSIneSS SUffereD DramatIcaLLy. the maIn kItchen of the hoUSe waS In the north whIch IS the fInance area. once the kItchen waS energetIcaLLy correcteD - nothIng waS ShIfteD, wIthIn a month the harmony In the entIre famILy retUrneD anD So aLSo In the bUSI-neSS. everythIng became aS gooD aS before.

aS vaStU IS maInLy known In InDIa, how Do yoU eStImate the acceP-tance anD PoPULarIty In weStern coUntrIeS?

It IS trUe that vaStU aS a ScIence waS DeveLoPeD In ancIent InDIa anD haS come back In a bIg way. the accePtance anD PoPULarIty In weStern anD other coUntrIeS IS PoSSIbLe wIth LectUre-DemonS-tratIonS, how energetIcaLLy any bUILDIng can be correcteD, wI-thoUt DemoLIShIng or breakIng anythIng, anD by DemonStratIng the ImPact of the changeS In the envIronment anD the boDy, wIth the heLP of InStrUmentS SUch aS the Lecher antenna, DeveLoPeD In germany, by one mr. SchneIDer. SUre, thIS ProceSS wILL take tIme, bUt the SIgnS are aLreaDy very encoUragIng.

why Do yoU thInk vaStU IS a SerIoUS ScIence?

rIght from ancIent tImeS vaStU haS been aLwayS caLLeD a ScIence - a ShaStra. the fULL name IS In fact vaStU ShaStra. what we have been tryIng to reSearch anD fInD oUt why haS It been caLLeD a ScIence, anD how IS thIS ancIent ScIence, a ScIence, anD IS StILL vaLID toDay? oUr reSearch over the LaSt 38 yearS haS maDe US re-DIScover thIS ancIent knowLeDge anD ScIence, anD we reaLISe how ImPortant It IS, anD how neceSSary to aDaPt anD aPPLy thIS ScIence In oUr LIveS toDay, wIth SometImeS UnbeLIevabLe anD wonDerfUL reSULtS.

why ShoULD we In the weStern coUntrIeS PractIce the ScIence of vaStU?

vaStU ShoULD be PractIceD aLL over the worLD, In every coUntry. aS the aDvantageS of vaStU can heLP InDIvIDUaLS In betterIng theIr heaLth, theIr reLatIonShIPS, theIr fInanceS, Peace anD haPPIneSS In theIr LIveS.

what IS the meanIng of vaStU?

vaStU comeS from the root worD ‚vaSa“, meanIng home, anD „ShaStra“ IS the ScIence, or the ScIence of home, of LIvIng, of LIfe.

hat InfLUence haS vaStU?

vaStU haS both PoSItIve anD negatIve InfLUence. when thIngS are not rIght wIth regarD to vaStU, It can LeaD to IIL heaLth, aS Se-rIoUS ISSUeS aS tUmoUr, cancer, DIgeStIve, LUngS, heart, mIgraIne, heaDache, SInUS ISSUeS...fInancIaL ISSUeS, reLatIonShIP ISSUeS, men-taL StreSS, Lack of harmony anD Peace... bUt when DeSIgneD aS Per vaStU PrIncIPLeS, the bUILDIng SPace gIveS a SenSe of Peace anD har-mony, of weLL beIng In aLL aSPectS of LIfe.

what IS the PrImary goaL of vaStU?

the PrImary goaL of vaStU IS eSSentIaLLy SPIrItUaL, maIntaInIng a comPLete harmony of the boDy, vItaL, mentaL, PSychIc anD SPIrI-tUaL energIeS of the boDy, whIch IS very ProfoUnD anD DIffIcULt to achIeve, becaUSe of an IntenSe ProceSS of yogIc anD SPIrItUaL PractIceS, bUt whIch the ancIentS reaLISeD can be achIeveD, very effectIveLy wIth the heLP of vaStU, anD throUgh the InteractIon of the bUILDIng anD boDy

what are the maIn DIfferenceS between vaStU anD feng ShUI?

vaStU may be conSIDereD aS the SoUrce whIch feD varIoUS traDI-tIonS anD cULtUreS aroUnD the worLD wIth the SPreaD of bUD-DhISm. marcUS SchmIeke wrIteS In hIS book „vaStU the orIgIn of feng ShUI“ :„the more we StUDy both cULtUreS, the more we fInD that varIoUS aSPectS of chIneSe cULtUre orIgInateD from InDIa‘S veDIc cULtUre. ShortLy after the bUDDhIStS from InDIa went to chIna, the chI-neSe taoISt traDItIon IntegrateD the ScIence of vaStU Into theIr cULtUre, aDDIng anD SUbtractIng a few thIngS here anD there, Un-tIL vaStU In that Part of the worLD became known aS feng ShUI.“(feng ShUI PronoUnceD fong ShUway, meanIng wInD anD water, or baLancIng of the eLementS, whIch In vaStU are referreD to aS the Panch bhUtaS or fIve eLementS, nameLy, ether, aIr, water, fIre anD earth)

how Long Do yoU PractIcIng vaStU?

I have been reSearchIng anD PractIcIng vaStU SInce 38 yearS now.

how DID yoU come to vaStU?

I DIScovereD vaStU after havIng DIScovereD geobIoLogy In eUroPe In 1983. there after the PrIncIPLeS of energy DIScovereD throUgh geobIoLogy reSearch, heLPeD me reaLISe that the foUnDatIonS of vaStU were eSSentIaLLy baSeD on energy PrIncIPLeS, whIch I waS abLe to fULLy UnDerStanD anD StUDy, wIth the heLP of an excePtIonaL traDItIonaL maSter - SrI krIShna bhatt from mangaLore.

what IS the orIgIn of vaStU?

the veDaS are the orIgInS of vaStU, whIch StarteD wIth the con-cePt of the SacrIfIcIaL PoSt - the yUPa, anD the varIoUS formS of the veDI, anD wIth regarD to orIentatIonS, where the SacrIfIcIaL fIre waS LIt anD PrayerS recIteD for SPIrItUaL growth anD UPLIft-ment. thIS PractIce of yUPa IS StILL foLLoweD In thaILanD, when a new commUnIty or vILLage IS to be bUILt, anD the carvIngS on the yUPa have become more anD more refIneD anD eLaborate, anD are PrayeD to everyDay. In the veDaS are LaID the PrIncIPLeS of the exIStence of the SUbtLe energIeS of oUr hUman boDy, whIch IS a comPLex ScIence, anD the baSIS of aLL InDIan cULtUre anD ItS 64 artS. one coULD become an archItect or SthaPatI onLy when one haD maStereD anD IntegrateD vaStU aLong wIth the reSt of the 63 artS.

DoeS UneSco anD UneP recognIze yoUr „aUrovILLe“ Project ?

yeS UneSco haS SUPPorteD the aUrovILLe Project rIght from ItS IncePtIon In 1968. other Un organISatIonS have aLSo been SUPPor-tIve of the aUrovILLe IDeaLS anD effortS. UnIteD natIonS habItat Program anD UneP too. I have haD the gooD fortUne for many yearS, to PreSent aUrovILLe at varIoUS Un conferenceS.

what IS the PUrPoSe of aUrovILLe?

the PUrPoSe of aUrovILLe IS to achIeve hUman UnIty retaInIng oUr hUman DIverSIty anD cULtUre anD traDItIonS. DeveLoP PrIncIPLeS of LIfe for an IDeaL SocIety SUch aS an IDeaL SyStem of eDUcatIon, of fInance anD InDUStry, of cULtUre anD SocIaL InteractIon anD LIvIng.

how woULD yoU DeScrIbe aUrovILLe?

aUrovILLe IS a chaLLenge for hUmanIty, to have the freeDom to exPerIment anD conStantLy evoLve anD DeveLoP Path-breakIng exPe-rImentS, to move SteP by SteP from where we are toDay, to what we are ProjectIng aS oUr IDeaLS for the fUtUre, In every fIeLD of LIfe anD actIvIty.

In whIch coUntrIeS have yoU aLreaDy offereD yoUr eDUcatIon?

SInce the LaSt 4 yearS, I have been conDUctIng vaStU coUrSeS In france, ItaLy anD kUwaIt. at the moment we are conDUctIng vaS-tU coUrSeS In france at toULoUSe, rUSSIa at moScow, anD In InDIa at baroDa. thIS year we are InItIatIng vaStU coUrSeS aLSo In ger-many anD engLanD. PeoPLe are SUggeStIng to Start a coUrSe Soon In the USa.

haS vaStU SomethIng to Do wIth geomancy? (geometry ?)

geomancy waS baSeD on obServatIon of natUre anD ImPact of natUre on oUr LIfe. thIS haS SLowLy evoLveD Into a DeePer UnDerStanDIng anD become a ScIence over hUnDreDS of yearS - vaStU ShaStra In InDIa, feng ShUI In chIna anD jaPan, anD toDay geobIoLogy In eU-roPe.

yoU have InDeeD maDe yoUr own InventIonS In the fIeLD of vaStU, SUch aS SPecIaL StoneS anD coPPer fLakeS for correctIon anD harmo-nISatIonS. are there any InDePenDent StUDIeS In thIS regarD?

UnfortUnateLy, there IS no centraL reSearch organISatIon, any-where In any coUntry In the worLD, whIch haS taken UP SerIoUSLy, theSe StUDIeS anD reSearcheS In oUr ancIent ScIenceS anD traDItIonS. In InDIa, my wIfe anD I, have PerSonaLLy InItIateD thIS reSearch In vaStU anD In Some of the other 64 artS of InDIa, wIth oUr own effortS anD fInanceS anD over the yearS, we have been exPerImentIng on how to harmonISe the ProbLemS of vaStU aroUnD the worLD, anD that haS heLPeD US DeveLoP anD refIne oUr methoDS of workIng anD harmonISIng, whIch haS been an ongoIng ProceSS.

what kInD of technIqUeS are yoU USIng In vaStU ?

we USe varIoUS technIqUeS for correctIng vaStU ISSUeS In any bUIL-DIng, wIth materIaLS SUch aS marbLe PIeceS, fLat coPPer anD bent coPPer PIeceS, wIth SPIraL DeSIgnS carveD on each one of them, whIch we get maDe eSPecIaLLy for vaStU correctIon PUrPoSe,wIth theSe materIaLS we fInD we can energetIcaLLy cLoSe a Door/wInDow oPenIng, or make an energy oPenIng; ISoLate anD harmonISe raDIatIonS from varIoUS SoUrceS SUch aS eLectrIcaL maInS, heatIng SyStemS of the hoUSe; energetIcaLLy cUt anD DIvIDe SPaceS or Pro-Perty to brIng them In the ProPer ProPortIonS; we can raISe very hIgh the energy LeveL of a SPace or bUILDIng wIth the heLP of an eternaL fLame or hImaLayan SaLt LamP, by PLacIng theSe on the energy PoInt of the bUILDIng... etc.

o yoU neeD SPecIaL tooLS for vaStU ?

we are USIng the InStrUment DeveLoPeD In germany, to meaSUre hIgh freqUency raDIatIonS, caLLeD the „Lecher antenna“. hoPe-fULLy more SoPhIStIcateD InStrUmentS can be DeveLoPeD In the near fUtUre for more accUrate fInDIngS anD reaDIngS. the PreSent Le-cher antenna IS heLPfUL In IDentIfyIng the SoUrceS of raDIatIonaL ProbLemS (bIo-eLectro-magnetIc or bem) In a bUILDIng, anD whe-re the raDIatIonS are not harmonISeD, how they ImPact oUr boDy. thIS InStrUment heLPS US See anD check, whether the correctIonS or harmonISatIonS we have carrIeD oUt, wIth the heLP of materI-aLS DeveLoPeD by US, oUtLIneD above, are effectIve or not, or So-methIng more neeDS to be Done. the reSULtS are InStantaneoUS.

DID yoU aLreaDy make correctIonS at weLL known bUILDIngS In weS-tern coUntrIeS ?

we have Done many PrIvate bUILDIngS acroSS eUroPe, USa, afrIca, aUStraLIa, InDIa, the mIDDLe eaSt anD far eaSt coUntrIeS, nameLy reSIDenceS, offIceS, ShoPS, factorIeS...etc.

after a correctIon of vaStU Do yoU feeL an ImmeDIate reSULt or DoeS It reqUIre Some tIme ?

thIS IS SomethIng whIch we are StILL tryIng to UnDerStanD, why when we Do energy correctIonS In a PLace, energetIcaLLy the InSt-rUment (Lecher antenna) ShowS InStantLy everythIng IS correcteD anD harmonISeD, bUt Some feeL the reSULtS In 24 hoUrS, Some In a few DayS, Some In a few weekS anD monthS!!!

how Long DoeS a correctIon take? DoeS It take DayS or weekS ?

for an exIStIng Project, DePenDIng on the SIze of the Project, It may take a few hoUrS, to a few DayS, SPecIaLLy for Large factory comPLex, anD Large commercIaL SPaceS SUch aS maLLS.

whIch are the benefItS yoU wILL get when yoU PUrIfy yoUr hoUSe or aPartment wIth vaStU ?

SometImeS the effectS are foUnD to be DramatIcaLLy PoSItIve once the vaStU correctIonS are carrIeD oUt. for examPLe In the caSe of a LaDy near brISbane, aUStraLIa, whoSe heaD woULD not move for over 15 yearS after they ShIfteD to a new home, on correctIng the roof heIght ISSUe In the hoUSe, InStantLy the heaD movement whIch waS bLockeD for 15 yearS, anD no amoUnt of meDIcaL treatment waS heLPIng, got free anD reLeaSeD wIthIn an InStant, anD the heaD- bLockage never came back, SInce the LaSt 15 yearS now. we have many examPLeS of thIS kInD, too nUmeroUS to wrIte aboUt.SImILarLy PeoPLe have benefItteD from vaStU correctIonS wIth regarD to theIr fInanceS, reLatIonShIPS, heaLth ISSUeS, anD moSt of aLL PeoPLe‘S fIrSt reactIon on comIng home after a vaStU correctIon, IS feeL a SenSe of Peace anD haPPIneSS, whIch they never feLt before. In one PartIcULar caSe an eLDerLy LaDy aLwayS feLt She coULD never LIve In her hoUSe. after gettIng the vaStU correctIon, anD comIng home, She InStantLy SaID „ now I feeL I can Stay here“. her DaUghter who haD no IDea that a vaStU correctIon waS Done at her anD her ParentS home, came home In the evenIng, StePPeD Into the hoUSe anD remarkeD to her mother „what haS haPPeneD, I feeL everythIng haS changeD here?“

eLectroSmog IS a very toPIcaL ISSUe In the weSt – can vaStU aLSo eLImInate eLectromagnetIc PoLLUtIon?

eLectroSmog IS a Phenomenon of oUr technoLogy toDay, whIch DID not exISt In ancIent tImeS. bUt In oUr reSearch wIth the heLP of geobIoLogy we have reaLISeD that there IS no way we can bLock eLectro-magnetIc raDIatIonS, they wILL aLwayS be there. what one can achIeve IS Prevent theIr negatIve ImPact on oUr boDIeS. anD we fInD that even thoUgh vaStU PrIncIPLeS are ancIent, they Do heLP In PreventIng the negatIve effect of eLectroSmog on oUr boDIeS. when DoIng a vaStU correctIon anD InterventIon In a SPace, wIth the maerIaLS we USe, we Do Look at harmonISIng the ImPact of eLectroSmog on the PeoPLe.

DoeS vaStU aDjUSt or fILter aLSo water veInS anD theIr negatIve ef-fectS?

yeS If vaStU PrIncIPLeS are aPPLIeD at the tIme of conStrUctIon, we aDvISe two thIngS, one Lay a 2-3mm LIme PLaSter Layer before DoIng the foUnDatIonS, whIch neUtraLISeS aLL raDIatIonS on oUr boDy, emanatIng from the earth, SUch aS magnetIc grID LIneS, UnDer-groUnD water StreamS, faULtS In the earth. the other thIng IS to earth the SteeL In the concrete SLabS, beamS anD coLUmnS, whIch In tUrn neUtraLISeS the effect of cage of faraDay on oUr boDIeS.

what PartIcULar attentIon yoU have to Pay when harmonIzIng accorDIng to vaStU ?

the moSt ImPortant anD PrImary factor whIch we neeD to DetermIne for a bUILDIng or Project SIte, IS to eStabLISh whether we ShoULD aPProach It from the northern or SoUthern hemISPhere PoInt of vIew. LookIng at varIoUS factorS SUch aS exIStence of a Lake, Stream or rIver nearby, DIrectIon of ItS water fLow, DIrectIon of LanD SLoPe...etc. once we have DetermIneD the SIte IS northern or SoUthern, then onLy we ProceeD fUrther.

If once a hoUSe haS been correcteD, IS thIS than for “eternIty” or DoeS It neeD correctIon In caSe of changeS at the hoUSe? for examP-Le chILD‘S room changeD Into workIng room.

normaLLy once a vaStU correctIon IS Done, no fUrther Interven-tIonS are neceSSary In the fUtUre. If fUnctIonS of a room are aLte-reD, there are no ISSUeS wIth regarD to that. bUt If for examPLe LocatIon of ImPortant actIvItIeS SUch aS kItchen, heatIng SyStem of the hoUSe are reLocateD, It may neceSSItate vaStU correctIonS; or when aDDItIonS are maDe to the exIStIng StrUctUre or bUILDIng LayoUt. normaLLy when PeoPLe want to make changeS or aDDI-tIonS, they aLwayS DIScUSS the ISSUeS wIth US, before DoIng So.

If In an aPartment bUILDIng one Party haS correcteD theIr aPartment accorDIng to vaStU, wILL thIS aUtomatIcaLLy InfLUence the other hoUSe mateS? for examPLe, DISPUteS In the hoUSe can be SoLveD?

It IS SaID that the vaStU can InfLUence DIrectLy the fInancIaL aSPect. IS thIS trUe anD can yoU gIve two examPLeS from yoUr PerSonaL exPerIence ?

heaLth, fInance, reLatIonShIPS, Peace of mInD, theSe are varIoUS areaS that vaStU DoeS InfLUence, anD vaStU correctIonS carrIeD oUt, Do heLP. bUt there IS no gUarantee that thIS woULD make a PerSon a mILLIonaIre!!!! It woULD heLP ImProve hIS fInancIaL SItUatIon. one examPLe I have aLreaDy gIven earLIer, of a famILy In kanPUr, anD how after vaStU correctIon of theIr new home, the InfIghtIng anD fInancIaL LoSSeS StoPPeD, anD they were abLe to come back to theIr orIgInaL StatUS.I gIve here an InStance of a factory In aUrangabaD. for three yearS they were not abLe to rUn a SIngLe workIng ShIft.

...In another factory In the Same town of aUrangabaD, In centraL maharaShtra, InDIa, they were havIng a maSSIve ISSUe of not beIng abLe to SeLL theIr ProDUctS. vaStU correctIonS were Done, IncLUDIng oPenIng of a Door In the north-weSt of the factory, anD movIng aLL the fInISheD gooDS In the nw. after 6 monthS the PeoPLe caLLeD me UP, SayIng theIr SaLeS were goIng So weLL, that they wanteD to go for an exPanSIon, anD If I coULD come to DIScUSS the exPanSIon PLanS accorDIng to vaStU.

vaStU aLSo PromISeS that heaLth conDItIonS are ImProvIng - Do yoU have exPerIenceS wIth DoctorS‘ offIceS or cLInIcS? If yeS, can yoU gIve examPLeS.

we have correcteD qUIte a few DoctorS cLInIcS In germany, Uk, aUStraLIa, afrIca, aUStrIa -- a weLL known ayUrveDIc cLInIc In aUStrIa. In InDIa amongSt many other cLInIcS the new cLInIcS for Dr. vIPUL rathoD at SIon anD anDherI In bombay, - enDoScoPy aSIa, whIch have become LeaDIng cLInIcS for enDoScoPy In the worLD toDay.

IS It manDatory that In a correcteD vaStU bUILDIng a correctIon for hUman beIngS mUSt be maDe aS weLL,or DoeS the correcteD vaStU aUtomatIcaLLy SoLveS thIS ProbLem?

the ImPact of a vaStU correctIon In a bUILDIng IS that, It heLPS harmonISe the SUbtLe energIeS of the boDy nameLy what we caLL the naDI SyStem In InDIa or the energy axeS of the boDy. the Secret of heaLth, IS maIntaInIng the aLIgnment of theSe naDIS or energy axeS In oUr boDy. the more they move oUt of aLIgnment, the reSIStance of the boDy begInS to DImInISh, anD we become Prone to ILL heaLth. generaLLy when a vaStU correctIon IS Done, the IDea IS that, the bUILDIng In tUrn aLIgnS oUr energy axeS, once we are In thIS SPace. bUt If there have been InterventIonS on the boDy SUch aS any oPeratIon, rIght from chILDhooD, then the SUbtLe energIeS of the boDy get ImPacteD, anD the energy axeS get thrown Pretty far oUt of aLIgnment. In theSe caSeS, even If a vaStU correctIon IS Done, It wILL not aUtomatIcaLLy aLIgn the energy axeS of the boDy, anD therefore an energy correctIon In the oPerateD areaS of the boDy become manDatory, to Prevent the boDy from gettIng fUrther StreSSeD anD affecteD.

we hearD that yoU cUreD anD PUrIfIeD not onLy bUILDIngS bUt aLSo PeoPLe accorDIng to vaStU PrIncIPLeS. If,In thIS context, there IS no PUrIfIcatIon to the bUILDIng ,IS the effect than SUStaInabLe?

It IS trUe that we have been DoIng vaStU correctIonS not onLy for bUILDIngS bUt aLSo for the hUman boDy. the two are Inter DePenDent, therefore aS exPLaIneD above, If we Do the vaStU correctIon, If a PerSon haS haD varIoUS SUrgIcaL InterventIonS, we neeD to energetIcaLLy correct or reStore the SUbtLe energy axeS baLance of the boDy, for the PerSon concerneD.In caSe when a PerSon‘S SUbtLe energIeS are correcteD after oPeratIon, even the removaL of a tooth, then It IS not neceSSary that the boDy‘S energy axeS wILL remaIn In harmony, If energy correctIonS of the bUILDIng are not carrIeD oUt accorDIng to vaStU PrIncIPLeS. SInce the bUILDIng‘S vaStU DefectS wILL ImPact the PerSon, not onLy when he IS wIthIn the bUILDIng, bUt aLSo when he IS traveLLIng anD away from home, the negatIve ImPact of vaStU ISSUeS contInUeS. for examPLe If we are SLeePIng over a magnetIc grID LIne, the boDy getS ImPregnateD by thIS negatIve energy every nIght, anD when we traveL, we carry that ImPregnateD negatIve energy wIth US on oUr SUbtLe boDIeS , whIch then contInUe to ImPact oUr PhySIcaL boDy. hence when we Do a vaStU correctIon, we neeD to eLImInate from the boDy too, theSe ImPregnateD negatIve energIeS from the boDy.vIce-verSa, when we correct the energIeS on the hUman boDy, It IS very mUch aDvISabLe, at the earLIeSt, aLSo correct the energIeS of the PerSon‘S aPartment or home.

are there aLreaDy vaStU conSULtantS In germany anD the german-SPeakIng areaS who have been traIneD by yoU?

the orgInInaL vaStU IS onLy for PLannIng new bUILDIngS. IS It rIght, that yoU foUnD a way to make correctIonS In bUILDIngS whIch are aLreaDy bUILt?

orIgInaLLy In every traDItIon, vaStU PrIncIPLeS were aPPLIeD for every archItectUraL Project rIght from the worD go. there waS never any choIce.toDay aS theSe PrIncIPLeS are not known anD not foLLoweD, the qUeStIon IS, how Do we harmonISe each of theSe SPaceS? how Do we reSoLve aLL the varIoUS ProbLemS anD ISSUeS reSULtIng from thIS Ignorance of vaStU PrIncIPLeS? SInce we DIScovereD that vaStU PrIncIPLeS are baSeD on energy PrIncIPLeS, whIch are baSIcaLLy bIo-eLectro-magnetIc (bem) In orIgIn. teStIng over the yearS, the harmfUL ImPact of theSe bem raDIatIonS on the hUman boDy, we were SLowLy abLe to fInD wayS anD meanS to neUtraLISe the negatIve ImPact of bem raDIatIonS In any SPace. thUS not onLy SafegUarD oUr boDy‘S SUbtLe energIeS bUt aLSo harmonISe them, anD maIntaIn theIr harmony!

can yoU Say In a few SentenceS how yoU DeveLoPPeD thIS methoDe for correctIonS In exIStent bUIDIngS anD whatS the exPerInce of correcteD bUILDIngS.

the maIn PUrPoSe of vaStU IS to maIntaIn the harmony of the hUman boDy In every bUILt SPace. hence It IS ImPeratIve fIrSt to know what IS It In the hUman boDy that getS affecteD or ImPacteD? for a Long PerIoD of tIme I coULD not fInD any cLUeS. fortUnateLy, after I LIveD a very PowerfUL SPIrItUaL exPerIence, that a break-throUgh came.
