2. Basic Principles of Vaastu

Since the whole universe is a composition of five basic elements: Fire, Air, Space, Earth and Water. Through these, our body receives Internal Energies in the form of Proteins, Carbohydrates, Fats etc. and External Energies in the form of Heat, Light, Sound, Wind and so on .

The five elements have close rela-tionship with man and his environment. Nature has given them their proper place according to merit.
