House Warming

HOUSE WARMING FUNCTION

There are discrepancies in the waking hours of "Vasthu Purusha" (Deity of the plot).  These timings are differently indicated in different versions of the Hindu Almanac.  Many almanacs indicate that the "Vasthu" keeps awake for 21 Nazhigai(Indian hour of 24 minutes) or 8 hours and 24 minutes.

The waking time of "Vaasthu" is as indicated in the table below:

If the house warming ceremony is performed at the feet of the "Vasthu Purusha", the children will suffer and the wife will become critical.  If the house warming ceremony is performed at the head of the Vasthu Purusha, the head of the family will be afflicted.

If the house warming ceremony is performed at the back of the "Vasthu Purusha", the servants will be in danger and the house will be burgled. Therefore it is best to perform the house warming ceremony at the line of sight of 'Vasthu Purusha'.
