A pooja room is a sacred place in your home for serenity, calm, and worship. According to Vastu principles, your pooja room or mandir is most auspicious when it’s placed in the northeast of your home with your idols facing east, west, or south. In this article, we’ll explain exactly where and how to set up your pooja room for prosperity and peace (whether you have a house or just an apartment) and how to decorate and clean it for continued blessings.
Things You Should Know
- Place your pooja room or mandir in the northeast corner of your home on the ground floor, with your idols facing toward the west, east, or south.
- Arrange your idols so they’re several inches away from the wall and at least 6 in (15 cm) off the ground to allow air and incense to circulate around them.
- Decorate your pooja room with light, neutral colors and decor that matches the rest of your home. Tidy up the pooja room regularly.
