Vastu for the Pooja Room: A Space for Stillness
The pooja room is the spiritual heart of a home, and Vastu Shastra gives careful thought to where and how it is placed so that it remains a space of stillness.
The ideal direction
The north-east (Ishan) corner is considered most auspicious for worship, associated with clarity and the divine. While praying, facing east or north is traditionally preferred.
Keeping it sacred
Keep the space clean, quiet and a little apart from bedrooms and bathrooms. Idols are best slightly raised and not facing one another, with the area uncluttered and gently lit.
A calm corner for the spirit steadies the whole household.
