Education is the foundation of a child’s future, it opens the door to endless opportunities and equips them with the skills and knowledge to navigate the world. As a parent, our greatest wish is to see our children succeed and reach their full potential. The importance of providing our children with the best possible education cannot be overstated.
When it comes to ensuring our child’s academic success, we often focus on their school work and grades, but there is another crucial aspect to consider – the environment in which they study. Vastu Shastra, an ancient Indian science of architecture, provides guidelines on how to create a positive and conducive environment for learning.
By following the guidelines of Vastu for the study table, parents can create a space that promotes concentration, memory retention, and overall academic success. A well-aligned study table can help children to study longer, stay motivated, and excel in their studies. On the other hand, ignoring the Vastu rules can hinder their ability to perform well and achieve their full potential.
As parents, it’s our responsibility to provide our children with every opportunity to succeed, and following Vastu guidelines for their study table is one simple yet powerful way to do just that. It’s not only about providing them with the best resources, but also creating an environment that nurtures their growth and development.
In order to achieve academic success, it is important for children to have good concentration and the ability to build and retain memories.
According to Vastu Shastra, the West of South West direction, specifically between 230 and 260 degrees when measured from the center of the house, is considered to be the best location for a study table as it is believed to be associated with education and savings. However, certain elements in the room can negatively impact the energy flow in this direction and hinder a child’s academic performance.
For example, toys or a TV in this area can distract children from studying, causing them to be more inclined to play or watch TV instead of focusing on their studies. The presence of a toilet seat in this direction can disturb the energy flow and negatively impact the child’s ability to retain and recall what they have studied, making it difficult for them to perform well in their academics. To remedy this, it is recommended to treat the toilet seat with yellow or white tape by pasting it around the three sides of the toilet seat, in order to neutralize the negative energy and create a positive and conducive environment for studying.
The placement of a gas burner in the West of South-West direction can disturb the energy flow and negatively impact the child’s education. The West of South West direction is associated with the natural element of space, and the gas burner, which is associated with fire, is considered an enemy to space. This can create an imbalance and disturb the attributes of the direction, i.e education, and savings. The remedy to this is to place a Yellow Jaisalmer Stone below the gas burner, this will balance the fire in this direction.
The colour green, which represents the air element, should be avoided in the West of South-West direction, as it can create an imbalance and disturb the attributes of the direction. To remedy this, it is recommended to paint the direction with colours like white, grey, and cream.
After balancing the West of South-West direction, it is important to place your child’s books and a pen stand in this area. This will help create a habit of studying in your child and encourage them to spend more time in this area. It is also important to ensure that the study table is well-organized and lit, as this will make it easier for your child to focus and retain information. Remember that creating a conducive environment for studying is just one aspect of helping your child excel academically, it is also important to support them with positive reinforcement and guidance.
If the WSW direction is not available, the North-East zone of the house can be considered as the second best option.
If neither of the above is available, the South-West (SW) zone can also be considered as a suitable alternative for all students.
In addition to these, there are other zones that can also be auspicious for Vastu for study table but only for certain students. For example:
The East zone can be considered for placing the study table, but only if the student is engaged in political science.
The South of South-East (SSE) zone has been found more suitable for students who are very active in yoga, sports, and physical education subjects.
The South-East (SE) zone will be more beneficial for those who are pursuing a career in the fields of law and police.
The West of South-West (WSW) zone is highly beneficial for school students.
The West zone is auspicious for students who pursue studies related to accountancy.
The North-West (NW) zone is likely to bring good results for home science, and retail investment-related disciplines.
The North zone will be more beneficial for students who are preparing for competitive exams.
It is recommended to avoid placing a study table in the West of North-West (WNW) – The direction of Depression, South of South-West (SSW) The direction of Disposal, East of South-East (ESE) the direction of Anxiety, East of North-East (ENE) Direction of Fun, and North of North West (NNW) – The direction of Sex and Attraction.
These areas are considered inauspicious for studying and can negatively impact the student’s academic performance.
If your child is having difficulties focusing on their studies, it is important to consult with a qualified educational professional or medical practitioner to identify and address the underlying issues. However, if you believe in Vastu and want to consult with an expert for advice on the placement of the study table, you can contact Acharya Rajhkumar Singh for guidance.
