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 Ranchi
Ranchi's households come from several traditions at once — Nagpuri, Bengali, Bhojpuri, Odia and Maithili — and a gathering usually holds more than one. Families here are used to saying which custom they keep when they book, because the assumption the pandit would otherwise make is a coin toss.
The city is compact and travel is rarely the problem. What is scarce is open space for a havan in the newer apartment blocks, so fire rites are commonly moved to a temple or to a relative's ground-floor house.
