Vaastu by Design, Ronald Quinn

"There are two spaces - the inner space and the outer space. They are energetic spaces. That which happens within also happens outside. They are experimental as well as experiential.

The inner space, the primal creative center, is the akasam. It experiences, vibrates and transforms itself into the objects of its own experience.

The outer space is paramakasam. It too experiences, vibrates and transforms itself into the objects of the universe.

Vibration of space is realised as kalam, which means time. Time is imminent in the primal space which is its manifest form. Time is indeed the force of energy, co-emerging with consciousness. Its presence is recognised only when conscious space attempts to give expression to its experience. So time, emerging as vibration, is quantified numerically. This is analogous to the quantifying of the vibrations emanating from a musical instrument (say Veena [a stringed instrument]) and turning them into 'sapta swaras' the vowels of music. The human body is likened to a Veena called 'Sareera Veena'. It also produces sapta swaras (a, e, u, ae, o, ai, au). The frequency of vibration is a quantified measure of sound. Hence it is a number. The numbers turn into spatial (material) forms again by the effort of time. So, time becomes the creator, the created and also the material for creation. Further, time is not only the causal element of all material forms, but cause of their growth and dissolution as well. Time is absolute, not relative or physical. The all pervasive Eternal Time is Kala Brahman or Kala Moolam. In the technological domain the kalam is brought into role by a unit of time-measure called talam.

To the artist, talam is the rhythmic definition and ordering of time. It is kalamatra. The rhythm (talam) is the inherent quality of micro and macro spaces.

Time and space are equal, since it is time that changes into space. Talam as time-measure is used in poetry, music, and dance, and talam as space-measure, is applied in architecture and sculpture.

Rhythm bound musical forms and rhythm bound architectural forms are inviting, alluring and spiritually elevating.

Through the grammar of the Talam, the Shilpi creates and his feelings take forms. Through the grammar of the Talam, the Divine Shilpi creates His own objects of the universe. Indeed their scale is one and the same!"
