Where the correct direction brings benefits. At the same time, the wrong direction can cause harm. According to Vaastu principles, the conch should never be placed in the south direction of the house or temple.

Pay Special Attention to Cleanliness

People often place the conch in the temple, but neglect to clean it. According to Vaastu Shastra, periodic cleaning is essential to maintain the conch's purity. The conch should be cleaned with Ganga water at least once a week. If Ganga water is not available, clean, fresh water can also be used.

Benefits of Keeping and Blowing the Conch
The mere presence of a conch in the house automatically eliminates many Vaastu defects. Whenever the conch is blown, the sound waves emitted by it remove negativity from the environment and provide peace to the mind. By blowing the conch regularly, Goddess Lakshmi resides permanently in the house and brings happiness, prosperity, and well-being to the family.
