Vastu for Home Prosperity: Mother Tulsi is considered to be the incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi. Tulsi has special significance in the Hindu spiritual tradition. It is also said in the Puranas that the Tulsi plant is very dear to Lord Vishnu, hence it is believed that peace, happiness and prosperity reside in the house where Tulsi is present. According to the scriptures, Tulsi is an important source of positive energy. However, its full benefits are achieved only when it is applied in the right direction and at the right place.
In many houses, Tulsi is unknowingly planted in the wrong direction, hence there is a possibility of negative impact in the house, so let us know where to plant Tulsi according to Vastu and where not to plant it…
Do not plant basil in the south direction
According to Vastu Shastra, the south direction is considered to be the direction of ancestors and lord of gods. Planting a Tulsi plant in this direction is inauspicious. It is believed that this can cause family discord, financial loss and health problems.
Do not plant basil in south-west direction
According to religious beliefs, Rahu is considered to have the greatest influence on the south-west direction. It is said that planting a Tulsi plant in this area reduces the positive energy of the house and creates obstacles in work.
Do not plant basil plant in a dark place
Tulsi plants need sunlight and fresh air to grow healthily, hence Tulsi should not be kept in dark rooms, basements or places where sunlight does not reach. It is said that by keeping it like this, not only will the plant wither, but the environment of the house will also become unfavourable.
Do not keep Tulsi near the idol of Lord Ganesha.
According to mythology, the use of Tulsi is prohibited in the worship of Lord Ganesha, hence the Tulsi plant should not be kept in front of or very close to the idol of Lord Ganesha. It is believed that doing this reduces the prosperity of the house.
Cleanliness is very important for Tulsi
According to Vastu Shastra, Tulsi is a sacred plant, hence it should be kept free from garbage and dust. Also, things like shoes, slippers, broom should not be kept near it. Thorny plants (like cactus) should also not be planted near Tulsi.
Best direction to plant basil
According to Vastu Shastra, planting a Tulsi plant in the north-east (northeast corner) or center (Brahma Sthan) of the house is considered very auspicious. It is believed that this removes financial problems and paves the way for wealth. It is also said that planting a green Tulsi plant in the courtyard of the house removes Vaastu defects and increases love and happiness in the family.
