Vastu Tips: Vastu expert Saanvi Gupta took to Instagram to share with her network an important piece of knowledge regarding one such misconception related to Vastu: the use of pyramids in bathrooms. According to Gupta, since people believe that pyramids balance and hence should nullify the ill effects of inauspicious energy, this does not work when it comes to toilets.
Amplifiers of Energy, Both Positive and Negative
Gupta says that actually, a pyramid is an energy amplifier of any area—positive or negative. She said it would only magnify the problem if placed in areas that already have negative energy, such as a toilet. She uses an analogy to drive the point across: in a glass of dirty water, adding clean water will only bring in an increased volume of dirty water, rather than clean. You shouldn’t put a pyramid in a toilet because all it does is intensify the negative energy.
What this advice is trying to drive home is that Vastu should be applied in an accurate way so that more energy is added to your place. As opposed to pyramids, Gupta suggests other Vastu remedies and practices to maintain balance in areas that tend to draw or produce negative energy. This can include ensuring proper ventilation and cleanliness and placing positive energy elements at strategic places around the house.
The Risks of Using Pyramids in Toilets
Avoid using pyramids in the toilets, and with better Vastu solutions, one learns to manage the energy of the living space to maintain overall well-being. His guidance on Vastu remains quite practical in approach, in the sense that he emphasizes that there has to be a thinking application of traditional principles in modern living.
