Introduction
Sthapatya Ved is an ancient architecture from India. It is
part of a system of knowledge called Veda. Sthapatya
means establishing, and Ved means knowledge. Sthapatya
Ved means establishing a relationship between the dweller,
dwelling and cosmos. This relationship maintains a cosmic
order between the dweller, dwelling and cosmos. This is
the same knowledge that was used in the past to design
temples, houses and cities.

Origin
Shri Vishvakarma is the source of Sthapatya
Ved knowledge. He is the origin of the entire
knowledge. The universe is created with the
very same principles that he passed to
Rishis and Maharishis thousands of years
ago to utilize in designing homes, cities and
countries. This very universe is in precise
order, moving with precise time throughout
many billions of years.

How space influences us

All people are influenced by the building in which


they reside, work and worship. According to the
design of a structure, one feels either comfort or
discomfort. Building designed in accordance with
laws of nature will produce a sense of bliss,
calmness and fulfillment. In incorrectly designed
structures one feels anxious, stressful and
dispondent. Poorly designed structures produce
sickness and depression.
