Q: What has bathrooms got to do with Vastu ? How and why would it impact the people ?
Latest Answer: @Mahi Garg: Vastu is important in each and every vertical of the house. Let me explain it in the layman's language. In early days, bathroom would be a place just to take a shower and we would have toilets separate which would be away from the sleeping rooms. But these days we have one combined place to take shower as well as flush out the body waste. Now imagine if the bathroom is constructed above the kitchen?? that flush may not be entering the kitchen but the sewerage pipe somehow is near the place where we plan to cook the deliecious food. In such a case; the inmates of the house would usually be sick or have stomach disorders. Now consider an even simpler case; try sleeping with the bathroom door open in the house; your energies start hampering. Even in some cases we have seen the people with an attached bathroom in the master bedroom. if they sleep dirctly facing the bathroom door. 855 people would have some or the other health problem.
