Vastu etymologically means "the place where people dwell" and Vastu Sastra is broadly understood as the science dealing with dwelling places. This definition of Vastu has led to people linking it with architecture and engineering which, though not incorrect, vastly restricts and mutilates the real import of the science. Vastu, in its principal conceptualization, means the ‘site’ or the ‘land’ and how it is placed and only then with what man dies with it.
