The primitive man lived in trees and caves. When he became civilized he set up a "home" to protect himself from the wrath of nature. He eventually learned to make the house “favorable” for himself. The "Vastu Shastra", that is, the experience of man, is not "Vastu Shastra".
Empirical Vastu Shastra was created before the advent of astronomy. But they were known to the outside world only at a later time. Astronomy, such as pneumatology, appeared only in the 20th century.
Life is an opportunity. It would be better to say that it is more than just a chance. Our life depends on how we use that wonderful opportunity, says one scholar.
The Shastras lead such a good life.
