🧭 Vastu Tips for Placing Your Home Temple
Create a Space of Spiritual Harmony and Positive Energy
A well-placed Pooja Mandir doesn’t just add beauty to your home — it attracts positivity, peace, and prosperity. According to Vastu Shastra, the ancient Indian science of architecture, the right placement of your temple significantly enhances the spiritual and energetic balance of your space.
At Shubharambh, we blend traditional wisdom with elegant craftsmanship to help you build not just a Devghar, but a sanctuary.
Here’s your guide to aligning your home temple as per Vastu — and how a Shubharambh teakwood temple fits perfectly into it.
🧿 1. Ideal Direction: Northeast (Ishanya) is Divine
According to Vastu:
- The northeast corner is the most auspicious location for a pooja room or temple.
- If northeast isn’t possible, consider east or north as secondary options.
- Avoid placing your mandir in the south or under staircases.
💡 Shubharambh Tip: Our customizable teakwood temples come in compact, corner, and wall-mounted designs to help you optimize space in the northeast.
🛕 2. Height Matters: Place the Temple at Chest Level
- Your temple should be at a comfortable height, ideally above ground level and below eye level.
- Idols should be positioned so you’re not looking down on them — a mark of respect.
💡 Shubharambh Temples come with base cabinets and elevation options to naturally align with ideal Vastu height.
🙏 3. Positioning Deities: Facing and Placement Rules
- Deities should face west, so the devotee prays facing east.
- Avoid placing idols directly against the wall — always leave a small gap.
- Never place damaged or broken idols.
💡 Our designs include dedicated deity niches and recessed backgrounds, giving every idol the space and respect it deserves.
🌿 4. Design Considerations That Vastu Loves
- Choose temples made from natural wood like teak, as it’s considered pure and sattvic.
- Opt for light, serene colors — avoid black or dark greys in temple decor.
- Include a shikhar (dome) or kalash design for traditional Vastu alignment.
💡 Every Shubharambh temple follows these sacred principles with options in warm wood finishes and ornamental domes.
🧘♀️ 5. Avoid These Vastu Don’ts
To maintain the sanctity of your pooja space:
- Don’t place the temple in bedrooms, bathrooms, or near toilets.
- Don’t store unnecessary or impure items in the temple drawers.
- Don’t place photos of the deceased in the pooja mandir.
💡 With dedicated soft-close drawers and elegant storage, Shubharambh temples ensure your space stays clean, organized, and spiritually aligned.
🕯️ 6. Enhance the Aura with Light and Sound
- Always keep the mandir well-lit — natural or artificial lighting is essential.
- Use bell chimes, incense, or chants to cleanse the energy.
- Place a diya stand or tray for daily rituals.
💡 Our temples include roof-mounted LED lighting, pull-out aarti trays, and ambient spaces that support rituals beautifully.
🏡 7. Vastu-Friendly Locations Beyond the Home
Your Shubharambh teakwood temple can align with Vastu even outside your house:
- Offices (Northeast zone)
- Hotels/Resorts (Near entrance or lobby’s northeast)
- Studios & Yoga Centers (Meditation corners)
- Hospitals & Clinics (Prayer or reflection areas)
Wherever placed, Vastu-aligned mandirs bring peace, success, and spiritual connection.
