Temples have special significance in Indian culture. Temples are not only the source of spiritual peace, but they are also considered the center of positive energy. People build temples near their homes so that there is happiness, prosperity and peace in their lives. But according to Vastu Shastra, having a temple near the house can be auspicious or inauspicious, which depends on many factors. In this article, we will know in detail how suitable it is to have a temple near the house from the point of view of Vastu Shastra and what effects it can have.
Benefits of having a temple near the house
Positive energy flow- regular worship, chanting and Aarti are in temples, which keeps the environment pure and positive. If there is a temple near your house, the positive energy of that temple also flows into your house, which improves the morale and mental health of family members. This positive energy purifies the environment of the house and keeps negative forces away.
Mental peace and spiritual development – staying near the temple increases the participation of a person in religious activities. Opportunities to participate in meditation, prayer and satsang provide mental peace and spiritual development. This spiritual environment brings balance and stability to a person’s life, reduces stress and anxiety.
Social and cultural engagement – Temples are not only places of worship, but they are also centers of social and cultural activities. Participating in festivals, hymns and other religious programs helps to interact with the people of the community, which strengthens social relations. This social engagement is beneficial for a person’s mental and emotional health.
Possible deficiencies to be a temple near the house
According to Vastu Shastra, if the shadow of the temple comes to your house, it is called ‘Chhaya Veda’, which is considered inauspicious. In particular, if the shadow of the temple remains at home for more than six hours, it can cause Vastu Dosh. This can negatively impact the health, prosperity and mental peace of the members of the Dosh Sadan.
Importance of temple direction and distance
The location and distance of the house near the temples of various deities have special significance:
Shiva Temple: Having a house within about 750 meters from a Shiva temple can have a disturbing effect.
Vishnu Temple: Unfortunate is likely if there is a house within a radius of 30 feet from the Vishnu temple.
Devi Temple: The Devi temple having a house within 180 meters affects a person with diseases and defects.
Hanumanji Temple: Having a house within 120 meters of Hanumanji temple can cause Vistu defects.
In addition, the effects of a Shiva temple located at a distance of 300 stages in any direction of the building are inauspicious. Durga, Gayatri, Lakshmi or a temple of any other goddess located on the left of the building is inauspicious. Any of his avatar behind a temple or building of Lord Vishnu is also a serious Vaistu defect.
Crowd and noise
Having a house near a large temple can affect the routine of household members due to congestion and noise. In particular, noise during religious events may be uncomfortable for students, elderly and sick persons. This noise can cause mental stress and health problems.
Treatment to remove vastu defects
If there is a temple near your house and Vastu Dosha is arising, the following measures can be adopted:
Establishment of Ganesh Idol: Installing the idol of Lord Ganesha in the direction of the house where the Shiva temple is located, Westu can remove the defects.
Copper Snake: If the Shiva temple is correct in front of the house, a copper snake should be buried in the main threshold of the house.
Rhose: If the temple of Lord Bhairavnath is in front of the house, then the roti should be fed to the crow daily at the main gate.
Devi’s weapon symbol: If there is Vastu dosha due to any goddess temple, the symbol of that goddess’s weapon should be installed at the main door or its picture should be placed.
Lotus photo: To avoid the effects of the temple of Goddess Lakshmi, take a picture of lotus on the door or put a picture of Lord Vishnu and offer lotus flowers daily.
Special measures at the main entrance
If the main door of the house opens towards the temple and is causing Vastu Dosh, the following measures can be taken:
Make a swastika symbol at the door: This is auspicious for creating a swastika symbol with red color on the main door. It helps prevent negative energy.
Use of copper coin: Putting a copper coin under the main door can also reduce the effects of Vastu defects caused by the temple.
A basil plant plant: Positive energy is maintained in the house by setting up a basil plant near the main entrance.
Being a temple near the house, along with a blessing, can also be a cause of Vastu Doka, it depends entirely on its location, direction and surrounding environment. If the shadow of the temple does not come at home and is located in the right direction, it provides spiritual and positive energy. But if the temple is in the wrong direction or is causing Vastu Dosh, it is necessary to take proper measures to remove it. By adopting appropriate Vastu remedies, the benefits of living near the temple can be fully enjoyed and possible defects can be avoided.
