Lack of space is a big problem in urban life. From the dining room to the bedroom—everywhere is crowded. In such a situation, many choose the balcony of the house as the temple of God. But if you open your mind and worship, what benefits will you get? Vastu experts say that it is not enough to build a Tagore house on the balcony. If you don’t follow the right rules, the results are bound to be reversed. Instead of positive energy, negative complications can build up in the world.

According to Vastu Shastra, the best place to do temple in verandah is ‘Ishan Kon’ or North East. It is believed that the gods live in this corner. Therefore, if a temple is placed on this holy side, Lakshmi Shri is maintained in the house. If for some reason there is no space in this corner, you can choose north or east as an alternative. But do not forget to place the idol in south or south-west direction. In this, the shadow of evil may approach.

Your sitting posture during puja is also very important. During worship, the face should be towards north or east. The deities will be positioned in such a way that their faces are towards the west. Remember, never place the statue directly on the floor. The Thakurghara should preferably be on a wooden or marble stand. If possible make the top of the temple pyramidal or triangular in shape. This type of design helps to concentrate auspicious energy.

Maintaining cleanliness is the first condition of a healthy household. There should be no shoes on the temple premises. You can keep a tulsi tree right next to the temple. It removes the negativity of air. Another important thing to keep in mind is that there should not be a toilet near or above or below the wall of the toilet. Even if there is a temple in the bedroom, it is mandatory to keep a curtain in front.

Get up early every morning and pick flowers. Offer that flower to the deity in the temple. Do not keep any broken idols or old useless things in the temple. If you follow these little rules, that little temple in the balcony can become the main source of happiness and peace in your life. Right direction and purity will bring prosperity.
