About Vastu Shanti
Vastu Shanti is addressed to the site and the structure rather than to the family, and it is kept on a newly built house before anyone lives in it. The Vastu Purusha — the figure the tradition holds to be lying within the plot — is worshipped, and a havan is made for the directions and the nine planets.
It is a separate rite from griha pravesh and comes before it, usually on the same day or the day before. A house that is bought or rented rather than built does not take one; a renovation that moves walls or a kitchen often does. Two to three hours, and it needs the house empty.
Keeping a rite in Gaya
Gaya's ritual year is organised around the ancestral rites, and everything else is arranged in the spaces around them. Through Pitru Paksha the town's pandits are committed for the fortnight and a domestic booking is hard to place; the months either side are open.
The town is also where families arrive rather than live, so a rite here is often kept at a lodging or on the Falgu rather than at a home. Samagri is easy to buy close to Vishnupad and the ghats, which is where most of it is sold.
