Vastu Shastra and the Environment: Auspicious Plants to Grow Around Your Home
Introduction
According to Vastu Shastra, the positive energy of any building depends on the balance of its surrounding environment. Trees and plants play a crucial role in maintaining nature’s balance while also bringing prosperity and well-being to human life. They absorb harmful toxins from the air, purify the atmosphere, and create a peaceful environment.
In this article, we will explore the plants that are considered auspicious for homes, their benefits, and how they can help correct Vastu defects.
1. Ashoka Tree

- This tree eliminates negative influences and enhances prosperity and happiness.
2. Banana Tree

- Studying under a banana tree prevents financial losses.
3. Shwetark (Milkweed) Plant

4. Papaya Tree
