The launch of the new website—www.vediccityplanning.com—brings out a wealth of information and knowledge about how ancient principles of Vedic architecture—Vastu Vidya*—are being applied to create sustainable cities built in complete harmony with Natural Law.

Please see Part I of this article.

The latest issue of At Home in Maharishi Vastu^® e-newsletter describes some of the many aspects of Vedic city planning that are discussed on the new website, including:

Vedic green and sustainable design
Maharishi Vedic architecture and sustainable building design enjoy a very intimate relationship and a shared central aspiration—to build in harmony with Natural Law. Vedic or Vastu architecture is 100% Natural Law-based architecture.

While there is much that is valuable and important in the sustainable architecture movement, it needs an additional approach to help fulfill its goal of designing a building in complete harmony with Natural Law.

That approach is Maharishi Vedic architecture and city planning. This ancient, fully developed system, recently revived to its purity and completeness by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, is based on a complete connection to Natural Law. Both systems are extremely supportive of each other.

Reconstruction of existing cities
We are all familiar with older city and town centers (be they congested or vacant) that would benefit from and be revitalized by re-structuring, modernization and opening up to more green space. At the same time more and more satellite towns on the outskirts of cities desire to implement green and sustainable technologies and become self-sufficient and vital on their own, while maintaining a compatible relationship with the inner-city area.

Maharishi Vedic City Planning has a fully developed concept that will take this trend to its fulfillment. An existing city or town can, in a systematic and practical manner, be reconstructed in stages. The revitalized ideal Garden City will be anciently designed and modernly equipped to bring greatest benefit to its inhabitants as well as the environment. The satellite suburbs will grow in self-sufficiency and maintain their healthy environment and at the same time support the inner city/town area.

Global Good News will feature more about the launch of the new VedicCityPlanning.com website and sustainable Vedic city planning.
