As Navratri approaches, followers of Vastu shastra are being advised to remove five items from their homes to create an auspicious environment and seek the blessings of Goddess Durga during the festival.
According to Vastu principles, dried tulsi plants, broken brooms, shattered glass, and other inauspicious objects should be promptly discarded from residences. Practitioners believe that the presence of these items can obstruct positive energy flow within homes and displease the deity.
Vastu experts suggest that removing such objects before Navratri helps cleanse the household of negative influences and prepares spaces for spiritual observance. The practice is rooted in the belief that a clean, well-ordered home attracts divine blessings and prosperity.
The removal of these five items is considered a preliminary ritual in many Indian households during Navratri celebrations. Devotees view the practice as an essential step in creating a harmonious atmosphere conducive to worship and family well-being during the festive season.
Followers of Vastu shastra contend that these preparatory measures, combined with traditional worship practices, help ensure that households remain blessed with happiness and abundance throughout the year.
