'Sree Vaasthu Bhagwan' - by K.J.S.Chatrath

I had heard of 'vaastu', 'vaastu shastra', 'vaastu dosh' etc. However I confess, with regret, that I did not know that there is a 'Sree Vaasthu Bhagwan' also. I seek forgiveness for my ignorance.

While travelling through Tamil Nadu last month, I came across this poster of 'Sree Vaasthu Bhagwan' which I am sharing for benefit of my readers.

Disclaimer: I personally do not believe in 'Vaastu' but I have great respect for all shades of faiths and various  fields of knowledge.

 Sages of the two statues display different hair styles and different styles of beards and moustaches. One wonders what do these indicate.
