Home Mandir is an integral part of Indian homes and most of the homeowner takes this precaution of following Vastu while placing it. Vastu lays down specific rules and norms regarding home temple.

It is a personal choice how big or small the Mandir or the Puja Unit is to be designed, some prefer to have a big and separate Mandir while some prefer to accommodate it somewhere in the house along with other space if there is a restriction of space or in case of a limited area. Here are some Vastu tips for home temple are:

•Temple should be placed higher so that God feet must come to the level of devotee’s chest while sitting.

•Always keep some insulation while praying or sitting in the temple such as mat or carpet.

•Wooden temples should always have dome at the top.

•Do not keep temple on the floor directly because this means disrespect of Gods. Always lay some foundation before keeping the temple on it.

•Dia in the temple should be lit in South-East.

•Home temple should be ideally placed in North-east corner which is also known as Ishaan corner and alternative is East which means placing in East facing West.

•Storage should always point towards the south east with no storage above the idol.

•Create a meditative atmosphere using light colors like white, light blue or light yellow.
