Hi,
Normally the correct direction to sit and chant the mantras is facing the east or the north, But in cases your are inside the temple and the deity is facing east, you will end up facing west, Is it correct to do JAPA?
Same way for sleeping, you keep your head on the east or in the south, But if your house or the mandapam is located just opposite the temple, one may end up keeping the legs towards the temple? In such cases what is the correct direction to sleep?
thanks
