Home decor is an abstract concept in India. It transcends beyond aesthetic pleasures and vibes, it is more inclined towards overall prosperity and progress of the family residing in a given place. The ancient home decor science states that “ Grahe Na Ramayan bhatatha hawan chitram kurupanahvmindra jalikam. Shilocha yaarnyamayam sadhasuram bheeshmam kurutha kridhanaram thvanambaram. Varah Shaardhul shiva prudhkavo grudhabi golukapothavayasaa. Sashye nagothadhi vakadhi patrino vichitratha no sharane subhavaha.”
It means that an ideal home decor should never display inauspicious views like war scenes from Ramayan and fight scenes from Mahabharata depicting use of swords and magic. Also, the pictures of weeping woman and statues of terrifying giants and demons are not allowed in a good household. One must be meticulous and tasteful while selecting pictures, wall decor, statues, lighting, chandeliers and wall hangings for his or her home. This summarizes the need for a rational approach for special occasions like Diwali.
You are not allowed to spare any expenses while turning your adobe into a welcoming pad for Goddess Lakshmi. Every single element needs to be placed in an articulated manner to create a serene, scintillating, pious ambience.
