Basically Jyotisha (Astrology) is the study of astronomy. It is a subject in which we study the SOLAR SYSTEM from the viewpoint of the earth. Here, we also study the effects of constellations. It is a pure science in which we study the position of planets with respect to the earth and their effects on all living beings. As the earth is a member of solar system, the magnetic field and electrical field it shares with other planets, affects the earth and also the life on the earth.

It is not only science, it is a divine science as all the planets and constellations are not mere objects but, as they are influencing the life on the earth, they are deities. Therefore, in India the planets are worshipped. The Sun is called as the divine father, Surya Narayana and the earth is called as divine mother,Bhoo Devi,the wife of Narayana. The other planets being members of solar system and having similar capacity of influencing the life on the earth are also worshipped as deities.This subject is therefore, rightly called as Astrology as it relates the stars and planets with the life on the earth. The planets are not the givers of good and bad instead, they are indicators of our karmaphal.

Astrology guides us how our life is? but doesn't change our lives according to our needs and desires. It helps us to accept our life and to live in peace and, to a certain extent, it helps us to neutralize our negative karma of past life, by making us realize of their consequence, and make us indulge in good karma in the present life. Even though astrology predicts the most part of our lives, freewill also plays its own role in our life decisions. - Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Vasthu Shastra

Vastu is just one of the many sciences. Vastushastra is definitely a science in itself. This science was conceived and developed in the ancient ages, and it is a part of the Vedas. But as of today, it is not available or accessible to us completely.

Some basics of Vastu are quite self-explanatory. For example, since the Sun rises in the East, so one should keep the main entrance of the house facing the East so that the rays of the rising sun enter the house. So, one can have the main entrance door of the house in the East or in the West. Reach out to us to know more about this precious science.
