10 Things that you Should NEVER Keep in Your Home

Priyanka Verma | August 21, 2018

Things not to keep at Home: Apart from being beautiful, a house must also be peaceful and have a positive aura so that the family members can stay together in harmony. Since ancient times, Vastu shastra has been used as a guiding principle in building homes. Feng Shui is also becoming very popular these days. In both these sciences, some objects have been mentioned, which, when kept in the house, emit a negative aura and adversely affect the health and well-being of the people living in the house.

 

10 Things You Should Not Keep in Your Home

1) A Sinking Boat/Ship

It is believed that having a picture of a sinking ship in your house can act as an obstacle to people’s progress. Just like a sinking ship is moving towards its end, in the same manner, the family’s future also goes for a toss. Such images should not be kept in the house.

2) Image of a Crying Child

The image of a crying or a sad child brings negativity into the house. Keeping such images in the house explicitly affects the women’s health in the family. A gloominess also tends to exist in the house. Instead of this, one should keep an image of Lord Krishna as a baby eating white butter. This is very auspicious as well as optimistic.

 

3) Any War Scene or any Scene from the ‘Mahabharata.’

It is not a good idea to decorate the walls of your house with a war scene or any scene from the Mahabharata, as this facilitates a war-like situation in the house as well. Keeping such images can increase fights and tiffs in the family.

 

4) Broken Idols

Broken Idols

It would be best if you never kept broken idols in your house. If you have broken idols of any gods or goddesses, they should either be put into flowing water or kept at the root of a green tree. Keeping broken idols increases negativity in the house and brings many problems into the lives of the people of the house.

 

5) A Photo or Idol of Nataraja

It is very common to find the idol of a Dancing Nataraja, especially in dancers’ homes, but this idol is actually very inauspicious. The idol shows the dancing Shiva, but it depicts destruction and affects the health of the family members.

 

6) Broken Mirror or Glass

Broken Mirror or Glass

Any broken mirrors or glass pieces should be thrown away as they bring negative energies into the house. Many people do not replace broken glass and continue to keep it. This gives rise to a ‘Vastu dosh’ and leads to a loss of family resources. Never keep a broken mirror in your house and never see your face in a broken mirror.

 

7) Dried, Wilted Plants or Plants with Thorns

It is good to keep some plants in the balcony/garden, but according to Vastu, you should never keep plants with thorns or dried and wilted. Such plants pose an obstacle to the flow of energy in the house, prevent prosperity and the inflow of money into the home. Always remove any dried and wilted leaves from your plants.

8) Running Taps

If there are any taps in your house which do not stop running, get them repaired at the earliest. Constant running water is not just the wastage of water, but it also leads to the wastage of money. Containers full of water are the epitome of wealth and prosperity.

 

9) Disorganized and Dirty Main Door

Disorganized and Dirty Main Door

Always keep the main door of your house clean and organized. Hang a nice nameplate on the door along with a bandhanwar,  as this brings positivity into the house. Never keep garbage in front of or around the main door as this invites negativity inside the house.

 

10) Stopped Watches

Stopped Watches

A watch or a clock is valuable only when it is working. According to Vastu, a watch affects the flow of energy. A working clock attracts positive energy, while a stopped one gives rise to negative energy. Remove all stopped clocks and watches from the house or change their battery to avoid loss of money and prosperity.

  1. This just show how mentally weak people are. A stopped clock is vasthu? Who knew clocks existed during vedic times?

    Vasthu is pure superstition and stupidity as are all the reasons mentioned in this article.
