Why is the basil plant so sacred?
Tulsi is called ‘Vishnu Priya’, that is, very dear to Lord Vishnu. Its use is considered auspicious in every puja recitation. Scientifically, this plant purifies the environment and has many medicinal properties. Therefore, it is planted with reverence in every Indian house. But to maintain its sanctity, it is important to follow certain rules.
Do not forget to keep basil in these 3 places:
1. Never keep basil in the south direction of the house:
-
Why forbidden: According to Vastu Shastra, the south direction of the house is considered the direction of Yama. This direction is considered related to fathers or death. If the basil plant is kept in this direction, then there is inauspiciousness in the house, the communication of positive energy stops and wealth starts. Goddess Lakshmi can be angry rather than being pleased, because this direction is not favorable to her.
-
Where to keep: Tulsi plant always home North or northeast It is considered the most auspicious to keep in the direction. These directions are considered to be the directions of the gods and this is where positive energy enters the house.
2. Do not keep basil at all near the toilet or bathroom:
-
Why forbidden: This is a matter of understanding! Toilets and bathrooms are considered to be a place of ‘negative energy’ and ‘impure’ according to Vastu. Tulsi plant is very sacred. Keeping it near the toilet disturbes its purity and Goddess Lakshmi is angry with it. By doing this, poverty and diseases can be inhabited in the house.

3. Do not keep basil in the southeast direction (fire angle) of the house:
-
Why forbidden: The south-east direction is also called fire angle, and it is associated with the fire element. While the basil plant is connected to water element and peace. This contradiction of fire and water elements reduces the auspicious effects of Tulsi and can generate negative energy. Keeping basil in this direction can cause lack of money in the house and stop barkat.
-
Select the right direction: North or Northeast are the most ideal directions. If very important, you can also keep it in the north-west direction (aerial angle), but abstain hard from the southern or south-eastern direction.
What if Tulsi is kept in the wrong place?
If your basil is kept in any of these wrong places, then immediately shift it in an auspicious and holy direction. After this, pray for forgiveness for the mistake made inadvertently to Maa Lakshmi. It is believed that doing so reduces bad effects.
