Dear Reader, I am an Engineering professional and have been at leadership positions in the corporate world in various functions covering Manufacturing Engineering, Project Management, Operations Management, Strategic Planning and more for almost 25 years now. While the corporate world has its own challenges, I was personally intrigued and failed to understand why there are so many Projects we undertook which resulted in either failures or the business would just not grow at the desired pace, especially so in a manufacturing setup ( that is where I have spent my career on). One of the reasons (while in discussion with one of the consultants) was that the orientation of the plant was not as per Vastu. This is when I took onto understanding the science further. This one major factor that prompted me to take up studying Vastu in detail was that the same is termed as “Vastu Shastra”. Vastu, an ancient Science that dwells on the principles of energies of directions and their impact on the functioning of an individual, group or an organization. Note that it brings in results only if the basics of manufacturing, service or any other business function is in order.
So where does Vastu play any role?
In order to understand this better, the impact of Vastu in a manufacturing setup is visible when certain guidelines are adopted as recommended by the Shastra in the setup and operations of the plant & machinery and other functions of the business process for having a smoother process of growth and comfort. This however does not in any case undermine the efforts and steps taken by the organization in its overall growth strategy. When everything is in order and results are not visible for causes unknown, time to reflect on the Vastu position of the setup. Minor changes in the Layout of the manufacturing setup as per Shastra guidelines begin to give better results. Again the concepts of Lean, TPM, TQM, TOC all apply in their own parlance and organizations definitely yield results. Are these results yielding as per plan? If no, await for more intriguing insights on Vastu that apply to your businesses or homes next week ………………..
Do take out time posting your comments on experiences related to the Shastra if any or otherwise.
