vastuunjakson

Vastuunjakson is a term used in the field of architecture and urban planning, particularly in the context of traditional Indian architecture and Vastu Shastra, the ancient Indian science of architecture. The term translates to "directional sequence" or "directional progression," referring to the sequential arrangement of spaces and elements within a building or urban layout based on the principles of Vastu Shastra.

The primary goal of Vastuunjakson is to create a harmonious and balanced environment that promotes well-being, prosperity, and positive energy flow. This is achieved by aligning the building's layout and elements with the natural forces and directions, such as the sun, wind, and celestial bodies. The sequence of spaces is designed to facilitate the smooth flow of energy, known as prana, throughout the building.

The Vastuunjakson is typically determined by the building's orientation, with the main entrance facing a specific direction based on the owner's astrological chart or the building's purpose. The sequence of spaces is then arranged in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, starting from the main entrance and moving towards the rear of the building. Each space is assigned a specific function and orientation, such as the living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom, to ensure the optimal flow of energy and the fulfillment of the building's purpose.

In addition to the sequence of spaces, the Vastuunjakson also considers the placement of elements such as doors, windows, and furniture within each space. These elements are positioned to enhance the flow of energy and create a harmonious and balanced environment. The Vastuunjakson is an essential aspect of traditional Indian architecture and continues to be an important consideration in modern-day building design.
