Description
From the cover:
Vastu - the ancient Hindu science of design and architecture - is widely practiced in India, where it originated thousands of years ago during the flourishing Vedic civilization. Now, in Vastu Living, veteran journalists and India expert Kathleen Cox has written the first general introduction for Western readers to all aspects of vastu, arguably the world's oldest holistic discipline - one that compellingly marries the scientific and the spiritual realms.
In the first half of the book, Cox explains vastu's connection to the spiritual philosohpy of the Vedas, its principles and guidelines, and its traditional use in the creation of the great Hindu temples. She also outlines vastu's linl to the Hindu practices of yoga, medication and ayurveda. In its second half, Vastu Living explains everything you need to know to practice vastu today - at home, in the workplace, and in your outdoor spaces. Cox clearly outlines vastu's teachings on room layout, furniture placement, and landscape design-enabling you to create harmony in every dimension of your environment.
For everyone who has discovered the benefits of yoga and ayurveda- or the Chinese practice of feng shui, which was inspired by this ancient Vedic spiritual science- Vastu Living will be an essential resource.
