Broken mirrors have always been considered unlucky. Perhaps this superstition may have to do something with the fact that they emanate negative energy. Keeping broken articles (mirrors, utensils etc.) leads to mental stress too. They also act as an obstacle in your child’s studies, delay work and cause health-related problems. Expert SK Mehta gives you simple tips that will help negate these effects.
1. If you have a vehicle with a cracked windshield/window, replace it immediately because it may lead to accidents and high maintenance cost.
2. Never look at yourself in a cracked mirror; this act symbolizes an upcoming problem.
3. A mirror should be sized such that it reflects your entire face or head, otherwise you may face mental stress.
4. Replace mirrors that do not show exact and proper reflections. For example, if your face looks thin/fat/distorted or the level of the floor does not appear to be flat, it is time to change the mirror.
5. If a windowpane breaks or cracks suddenly, it may indicate a problem created by your relative. Similarly breaking of utensils signifies mental stress.
6. Broken glass at a workplace signifies delay in government work, loss in business and problems in customer relationships. Replace this glass immediately. In case you are unable to do so, fix it temporarily with the help of a white tape.

2017-03-19 01:09:50The monsoon wind broke my medium sized mirror in two halves and i took one part of it and made design so that it look like a complete mirror with half mirror and half decoration. Will it be ok to see myself on that mirror?
Hi Karishma, Thanks for the query. The expert (SK Mehta) informed when you look at the mirror if you don't get a feeling that the mirror is cracked, then it is fine to look into this mirror, but if you feel that the mirror still has cracks on it, then avoid using the mirror. Team Home Tips

2017-05-01 15:40:52Sir, we recently reconstructed our compound wall. While doing so we places broken glass pieces on the north and north west wall for security purposes. Is this advisable?. Pls suggest as we have been going thru a lot since the reconstruction. Regards Sreeroopa
Hi Sreeroopa, Thanks for writing in. The vastu expert (S K Mehta) informs that it is not at all advisable to place broken glass pieces on the wall. Also the North and East wall should not be heavy. It should be light and constructed in such a way that lot of light and air could come in from these directions. It should not be constructed at a very big height blocking natural light or air. This may lead to a lot of issues. Team Home Tips

Hi Pradyut, Vastu expert (SK Mehta) gives the following remedies for the issue Property matters are connected with South zone.Make the South zone heavy and increase its height. East zone is connect to family. Ensure that if there are doors and windows in this direction, open them, make it light and airy. Also, NorthEast direction should be light. If there is any unnecessary stuff lying in this zone, remove them and keep it clutter-free. Thanks for writing in. Team Home Tips

Hi Pradyut Saha, Vastu expert (SK Mehta) has the following suggestions Place your garment stock in the Northwest direction for profits in your business When the customer enters the shop, it would be good if you can interact with the customer inside the SouthWest area of your shop. This ensures customer will purchase from the shop. Keep the Northeast zone light. If you have a glass door in the shop, try to keep it open if possible. Place wooden lamp in the SouthEast direction.

2017-08-06 18:49:53Dear Team, From yesterday onwards, my Left eye is blinking and today too.. Just now few hours before, unfortunately i broke a drinking glass.. What should i do now? I suspect something bad is going to happen.. please advise me Team.
Hi Siva Surya Prasand Arivalagan, Vastu expert (SK Mehta) says for a male, left eye flickering is not considered good but for a female it is considered good. . This is a sign of some bad news. There is certainly some negative energy influence around. Create a spiritual atmosphere around and engage in some charity work. Feed grains to birds. You can also feed a cow. Visit the temple.
