Vedic architecture – the power of life-giving principles

"People who have subtle perceptions of these sorts of things have very clear experiences when they come into these houses of a certain kind of coherence," says Lipman. "Using the laws of nature … we can create predicted influences on the lives of the people who live in and use our buildings. And this is real, and it is measurable, and this is palpable and once you’ve tasted it yourself, if you have enough compassion you want everyone in the world to have it."

As far as advice to people who are interested in applying Vedic principles to their current environments, Lipman recommends three things: 1) acknowledge that the environments we spend time in have a very real influence on us and be aware of that. 2) Gather information about what will be most beneficial, and act on the information. "If you’re going to spend 90% of your time in buildings, which we do, be sure it's an East or North facing building. And if you live in a house and it's not east or north facing, see what you can do to close up the south or west doors and use east or north doors. Sleep with your head to the east or the south. Do these two things and don't take my word for it, see what your experience is."
