Panchatattva
Our universe is made up of five elements.These five elements are water, air, fire, earth and sky. The entire universe, be it constellations, planets, sun, moon or any form of life - is realized by these five elements. Buildings are also made of these five elements, however, the proportion of five elements may be more or less in different buildings,that's because each direction belongs to a particular element which governs and influences the life of the occupants of the building. Its balance in the building, increases in life and gives benefits. Any imbalance in these five elements can cause problems and troubles in one’s life. In Ayurveda these five elements are known as Tridosha (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and Triguna (Sattva, Rajas, Tamas) respectively. The concept of five elements has been used in Vastu and Chinese medicine system, Because the embodied form of the five elements is clearly visible in the world.
