Which colour should be used in websites to enhance the business? In what direction should the images on a webpage be placed so as to have the maximum number of enquiries? We are living in the era of accelerated scientific and technological progress for which the computer and Internet are playing the major roles. Keeping the essence of growth and necessity of ancient knowledge, this book lays down the principles of designing websites using our ancient Vedic concepts of Vastu Shastra to enhance our growth on the net. This book deals with a very new subject -- Web Vastu, which is a fusion of the modern computer science with the Indian ancient science of directions (ie: Vastu Shastra). The world comprises five basic elements (Earth, Water, Air, Fire and Space), also known as the Paanchbhootas.

Hindu Gods in an American Landscape
In India, Hindu images have been cast for millennia through the lost wax process and brought to life by priests--becoming not merely venerated icons but actual embodiments of gods. Second and third generation Hindu Americans have increasingly adopted a more worldly perspective toward religious objects, viewing them as symbolic rather than actual presences of the deity. The author traces the origins of this important shift, and examines Western attitudes regarding sacred objects, as well as the complex layering of traditional and modern Hindu attitudes in a globalized world.
