Bhoomi pooja is a ritual performed in honour of Goddess Bhoomi and Vastu Purush (deity of directions). Bhoomi means Mother Earth. The Purpose: This pooja is believed to eradicate the ill effects and Vastu doshas in the land and pave the way for a smooth construction.
Bhoomi Pooja is always performed in the north-east corner of the construction site which is considered the sacred corner. The Reason: The digging of site should begin in the North-East corner to ensure that the North-East level is always lower than the rest of the site, thus allowing morning and constant light into the whole site.
This Bhoomi pooja ritual is dedicated to Vastu Purusha, Goddess Bhoomi, Pancha boothas (the five elements of nature). This pooja takes place in accordance with Vastu Shastra guidelines. Also, the deity of directions is honoured so as to eradicate the ill effects and Vaastu doshas in the land.
