Sonia to the right of PM
K. Ranganathan.
WHILE CONSTITUTIONAL experts are debating over seating arrangement of Congress President Sonia Gandhi and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in the Lok Sabha, Vaastu expert K. Ranganathan advises that Sonia should sit to the right of the Prime Minister. "Some constitutional experts have advocated that Sonia should be seated first in the treasury benches but I feel in that case misunderstanding will soon crop up between the two," predicts Ranganathan, who recently come up with Vaastu Times, a booklet on Vaastu for commoners.
As for the dress sense, Manmohan is going the Vaastu way. "He wears light colours and mostly wears a sky blue turban. People in responsible positions should wear plain or stripped light- coloured clothes and should not wear checks."
According to Ranganathan, the green interiors and wooden furniture augur well for the Lok Sabha but the Speaker's semi circular pedestal is a matter of some concern. "Green is the colour of prosperity and wood's presence means nature's presence in the House of people. Also wood is a good absorber of sound. However, the Speaker's podium should be rectangular. That way he would be able to conduct the House in a better way. In fact, wherever there is a matter of deliberations the shape of the table should be absolute."
And if the newly appointed ministers are doing up their cabins, Ranganathan advises they should sit in the southwest position, not facing a wall. "Everybody should avoid northwest corner because it is the wind corner, that is one would be swept away like wind. However, it is good for businessmen to keep their goods in this direction, as they would be sold out easily."
For the commoners, who can't afford to rebuild their homes according to the right directions, Ranganathan offers some solutions: "North and East should be light weight while South and West should be heavy weight. So, one can balance the home accordingly. Most troublesome corner is the toilet. The toilet seat should not face east or the entrance of the home. In case, it is like this either one should put a red piece of paper on the ceiling right on top of the seat or put a bottle full of salt in the toilet.
