This book about the science of Vastu was written as a simple and clear, yet detailed exposition on the knowledge and basic technical applications for the design of secular Vastu buildings - such as homes and offices. 'Vastu Architecture' provides the reader with a nuts and bolts explanation of how to create a solid structure that is in resonance with Earth, Cosmic and Divine energies. Being a fully illustrated book, with around 100 simple, clear and easy to interpret drawings; the book is very accessible to a general audience and does not require any background knowledge in architectural design. Also included are two complete floor plans that can be tailored for specific individuals in accordance with their birth stars. Many other books about Vastu do not include an explanation of the technical knowledge of Vastu science, and if they do, they often present only a partial, or an altogether incorrect account thereof. This is not the case with 'Vastu Architecture', as its technically rich, yet layman-accessible knowledge base provides the reader with all of the basic requirements to create a Vastu structure, including a very clear chapter on how to use the Ayadi Calculations to get the Sacred Dimensions of a building. This is not, however, a coffee table book, it is rather a manual for the construction of special havens for the soul. Also see the supplemental book in this series: Vastu Architecture: Project Plans and Illustrations, Vol. 1, by the same author.

Feng shui, the ancient Chinese art and science of finding harmony with nature, has become widely adopted in the West. Like Buddhism, which migrated from India eastward, feng shui is recognized by Eastern scholars as having originated not in China but in India, where it is referred to as Vastu Shastra, or the science of architecture. In Vastu Living, Kathleen Cox introduces readers to the art, science, and practice of vastu. Cox explains vastu's origins in the Vedas, its relationship to the Hindu gods, its principles and guidelines, and its traditional uses. Vastu Living shows readers how to practice vastu at home and in the workplace--from understanding its teachings on room layout and furniture placement to bringing the divine into every dimension of one's environment.

Vastu Shastra is basically one of the important traditional sciences that proposes principles of proper architecture. The book, "Amazing Principles of Vastu Shastra" is based on the study of the authors dealing with construction of traditional dwellings, especially the Indo-Aryan houses. In this research it was observed that structure of the houses mainly follow a similar module regardless of the wealth of the owner; a module which is very close to the principles proposed in Vastu Shastra science of architecture. The universal principles of Feng Shui as another example of the sciences dealing with proper architecture can also be traced in the construction of such traditional houses. However, during this study, a number of differences between the practices introduced in Vastu Shastra and Feng Shui were noticed which are believed to be due to the differences in environmental configurations and cultural behaviors, especially regarding the knowledge of directions, slopes, etc. Therefore to have a thorough knowledge of the best energetic formation for architectural spaces, it is highly recommended to also study the book "Fabulous Principles of Feng-Shui."
