As
the Vaasthu was originated from Vedas, its date back to several thousands of
years even before Ramayana and Maha Bharatha periods. This science was
written and developed by several sages, saints, and rishis. The sages gained
the knowledge this science through penance and investigating the
meteorological data of several years. They meditated to know the real
knowledge of this subject and wrote precise vaasthu rules using their divine
yogic powers. The eighteen saints were said to be prominent among all other
Vaasthu Scientists in sacred text masthya purana. They are Brugu, Athri,
Vashishta, Viswa karma, Maya, Narada, Nagna Jittu, Vishalaksha, Purandhara,
Brahma, Kumara, Nandheshwara, Shounaka, Garg, Vaasudeva, Anirudha, Sukra, and
Bruhaspathi. The other ancient rishis are Agasthya, Valmiki, Kashyapa,
kathyayana, mareechi, Manu, Markondeya, Mandana Suthradhara, and Baradhwaja. The
recent Vaasthu Scientists who modified the ancient text were Varahamihira,
Sanathkumara, Bhoja raja, and Manasara. Varahamihira the great Indian
mathematician, philosopher, astronomer and astrologer contributed in
developing Vaasthu shaastra a lot who lived in ujjain from 505 to 575 A.D.
out of his most famous works Pancasiddhantika dealt with astronomy and the
other Brihatsamhitha contains descriptions of heavenly bodies, their
movements and conjunctions, meteorological phenomena. These intellectuals
took meteorological and astronomical data into account in designing the
Vaasthu principles. The
city Dwaraka (the present day Dwaraka is situated in west coastal area of
Gujarath State in India) was built by one of the chief architect Viswa karma
according to vaasthu principles. The other ancient architect was Maya who
built forts for demon kings. According
to Vaasthu, the height of a house should not exceed the height of the temple
in the neighborhood. This was based on the principle that temples used to
have a flag post made-up of metal and in addition to that ‘kalashas’ the
bronze vessels installed on crest of the temple, they acted as lightning
arresters. If the houses were taller they would become prone to lightning
strikes........... |
