Vastu and Feng Shui

Vastu is the source of Feng Shui. Whilst China has a very original and self-styled culture, it is a fact that much of the core of its knowledge and customs have evolved and been adapted from Indian antiquity. This is evident within the modern day practices of Feng Shui, which although maintaining many of the principles of Vastu, have also become somewhat distanced from certain key aspects. While Feng Shui concentrates on life energies and strives for a correction of energetic blockages, Vastu goes much further, incorporating many more principles thus firmly establishing the relationship between the house and its inhabitants.
Are Feng shui and Vastu related?
Feng shui evolved out of vastu after Chinese scholars travelled to the Subcontinent and studied Vedic traditions and disciplines. But vastu is uniquely and specifically about increasing one's wellness - an invaluable goal in our age of stress. Vastu is thoroughly connected to all the principles associated with holism.
What are some of the differences between Vastu and Feng shui?
Vastu is not an all-or-nothing science. But we should try to adhere to its healthy guidelines. Vastu is not a one-size-fits-all science. Everyone is unique, so our Vastu Living environments need to reflect our special needs. Vastu is not a quick fix. As with yoga and ayurveda, we should be mindful in our practice of Vastu Living to reap its full benefits.
