Toilet Vastu – Placement of Toilets in a House
As per Vastu Shastra, a wrong placement of toilet inside the house is responsible for creating the biggest Vastu Doshas. Therefore, it is very important to keep the right placement of toilets inside. For certain directions, there is no remedy that exists, in case of wrong positions of toilet. However, Internet is full of scattered and irrelevant information and people are offering solutions, although as per Vastu Shastra, there is no solution possible.
I will use the same 16 directions diagram to ensure that the understanding of the learners remains.
