"
What makes a Vastu Expert great?",
"How should one identify a great Vastu Expert to analyze his house,
office, factory, or shop?"
I was meditating on these questions for a
long time and this article is a summation of my thoughts after observing my
guru, Dr. Khushdeep Bansal during my several interactions with him.
The result of this churning is presented here
as the 7 traits of a great Vastu Expert:
Listening
"When people talk, listen
completely. Most people never listen." - Ernest Hemingway
The Vastu expert must listen with full
attention to his client, the words he uses when describing his problems, and
the sequencing of sentences speak a lot about the associated areas of his house
which are imbalanced. Unless the Vastu Expert is able to get to the root cause
to the problems faced by the client he will not be able to cure them.
Transparency
"There is no
persuasiveness more effectual than the transparency of a single heart, of a
sincere life." - Joseph Barber
A
Vastu expert must be transparent with his client; in sharing his observations,
reasons for his problems (Vastu defects), solutions to his problems, time frame
when results can be expected, and what results can be expected.
He
should also explain the basic principles and rationale of Vastu to his client
in a clear and easy to understand language.
Willingness
to Share
"A
thousand candles can be lit by a single flame, without shortening the life of
the candle...Happiness never decreases by being shared..." - Lord Buddha
The inherent willingness to share his knowledge
and benefit the society at large is what makes a Vastu expert great.
Passion
"A commitment to excellence in all your
work is the by-product of a long-term perspective and passion.' - Unknown
The single most factor which distinguishes a
great Vastu Expert from others is the passion towards this science. It is this
passion which drives the Vastu expert to come up with solutions which benefit
the client, makes him result-oriented
Authentic
"The aim of every authentic artist is
not to conform to the history of art, but to release himself from it in order
to replace it with his own history." - Harold Rosenberg
The not so great Vastu experts resort to
create and spread myths, misconceptions and superstitions related to Vastu. An
authentic Vastu practitioner does not speak anything which is not rationale. He
will focus on logic and intuition and even when he is speaking with an
intuition he will explain the rationale for it to his client.
Intuition
"Intuition is the supra-logic that cuts
out all the routine processes of thought and leaps straight from the problem to
the answer." - Robert Graves
In a sense intuition is the ability to see
beyond the obvious. When a vastu expert can see the vastu defects hidden behind
the closed door of almirahs or when he can state the imbalances present in the
zone without visiting your office, you know he is doing it out of intuition. It
is this ability to visualize which makes a Vastu expert great.
Experience:
"An intelligent person armed with a
checklist is no substitute for experience." - Joy Gumz
There is no better yardstick for greatness
than the number of successful case studies which the Vastu expert has documented.
As the number of success stories increases so does the word of mouth publicity.
Ask your Vastu expert to give you a glimpse of his case studies.
