One of the most vital characteristics – or blessing, I must say – which distinguishes humans from other species on this planet is the process of learning.
You know, the process of learning – or gaining knowledge – takes place via different methods, such as, reading or studying, observing, doing, hearing and many other physical and even spiritual means.
For the scope of this article, I would like you to concentrate on the first – and most commonly followed – method of learning i.e. “Studying”.
Studying needs a lot of attention, concentration and focus; also, this method of learning needs – or demands – a place where one sits with a calm, composed and open mind – a place where the grasping power of mind is increased; a place which increases retention power of brain; a place where one is comfortable and can study undisturbed;
This place is what you call a “Study Room”.
Here, I assume that you are already aware of vastu shastra. If you are not, then I suggest you to read the article which reveals to you the working knowledge – science – of vastu shastra.
You have a dedicated place – or room – for each and every activity that your perform in your home, in the same manner you must have a study room where you – or your children – can concentrate on gaining knowledge.
To put icing on the cake, make sure that the study room in your home is vastu compliant so that while studying, the concentration and focus are sharpened and the process of gaining – and even retaining – the knowledge becomes easy.
How Can You Achieve a Vastu Compliant Study Room?
The process to make a study room a vastu compliant one is a two step – but very easy – process. The first step to make your study room vastu compliant is to locate it as per rules and guidelines of vastu shastra.
To help you on this – first step – I have created an image which reveals to you the best location to make a study room.
Have a look at it.
Having seen the image, I assume that you now understand that the best location to make a study room is the west portion of your home. However – due to any reason – if the west portion of the home is unavailable then you can make the study room in north-east corner or east part of home.
The second – and the final – step that you need to take to make your study room a vastu compliant one is to read and apply vastu tips and guidelines.
I have compiled a list of all study room vastu tips for you. Go through them, one by one.
