Introduction
The interaction between man and the five elements or Panchabhootas creates positive as well as negative energies and the focus of Vastu Shastra is to enhance the positive effects and protect man from the negative effects. The Science of Vastu Shastra is applicable even today although India has evolved from a largely agricultural society to urban cities because the Earth, the five elements and its various effects like magnetic, gravitational fields, directions etc have remained the same and continue to affect man in the same way.
There are a number of products or instruments for correction of negative energies and enhancement of positive forces.
- Pyramids
The word ‘Pyramid’ is a combination of two words ‘Pyra’ and ‘Mid’. ‘Pyra’ originated from the Greek word ‘Piros’ meaning fire and ‘mid’ implies the centre point. In other words the term Pyramid refers to any mass or object that has a concentration of energy (fire) at its centre. Many societies around the world have thus made use of the concept of Pyramids in the construction of temples, pagodas and other structures. The pyramids of Egypt are world famous structures and the pyramids of the Mayan and Egyptian cultures have always been an integral part of their civilisation. Every structure has a centre and the geometrical pattern of the pyramid enables the attraction of all energy particles from the surroundings creating a force field.
The beneficial use of pyramids dates back to the Vedic period. The ‘Rangoli’ in front of houses also originated in a pyramid shape to create a flow of positive energy into the house. The inauspicious energy ‘Yin’ is said to be balanced by using nine or sets of nine pyramids. The slanting or sloping sides of the pyramid meet at the top and there are different types of pyramids made use of in Vastu Shastra. Vastu pyramid like instruments are used which are energized and have powers to consolidate positive energies and obstruct negative ones. They are available in various types like Promax Pyramids, Supermax Pyramids, Flatmax Pyramids, Agro Pyramid, Multi Tier Pyramid etc. In India there are many examples of pyramid temples like Brihadeeshwara temple at Thanjavur, Srirangam temple etc.

Many places have ‘doshas’ or problems which cannot be physically changed and in such cases the correct placement of the Vastu Yantra, is the only solution to the problem. With appropriate rituals and worship the Yantra is placed under the earth or installed in the pooja room or a sacred place in the house. There are different kinds of Vastu Yantras.
