In Hinduism
Vastushastra (architecture)
: Brill: Śaivism and the Tantric Traditions (architecture)ٱ (द्वारफ�) refers to the “consequences of doorways� (at each of the peripheral padas of the 9 by 9 deity map), according to the Devyāmata (chapter 105).—Accordingly, [while describing the consequences of a doorway]—“Thus, in due sequence, the consequences (屹�dvārāṇāṃ phalam) of doorways are given. [...] After learning the features of doorways (屹ṣaṇa) as described, specifically, the wise man should carefully establish a doorway with ample good qualities�.
Note: While these are the consequences for doorway positions in a residence for ascetics, the consequences do not fall on the ascetic residents themselves, but on the patron who commissions and funds the building of the residence, and who gains the benefit from it. So, the consequences are not in any way to be connected to the lives of the residents. None-the-less, it is worth noting that these are the same consequences that we see repeated over and again for domestic buildings of all sorts. The model that is being used is that for normal housing.

Vastushastra (वास्तुशास्त्�, vāstuśāstra) refers to the ancient Indian science (shastra) of architecture (vastu), dealing with topics such architecture, sculpture, town-building, fort building and various other constructions. Vastu also deals with the philosophy of the architectural relation with the cosmic universe.
