Understanding the IHAS Certificate
Certain VastuKosha products may be supplied with an IHAS Certificate, where applicable.
IHAS refers to the Institute of Healings & Alternate Sciences. Publicly available material associated with Acharya Anuj Jain identifies IHAS in connection with Vastu Shastra assessments and related alternate-science practices.
Where applicable, an IHAS Certificate forms part of the documentation associated with the particular product supplied by VastuKosha.
The certificate should be considered product-specific documentation. It should not be represented as a government certificate, medical certification, laboratory test report, ISO certification or guarantee of a particular outcome unless the specific document expressly establishes such status.
What Is an IHAS Certificate?
An IHAS Certificate is documentation associated with a product for which IHAS certification or documentation is applicable.
Depending on the product and certificate format, the document may contain information such as:
-
Product name
-
Product description
-
Certificate or identification number
-
Date or issue information
-
Product-specific details
-
Applicable certification or preparation information
-
Other identifying information
The exact information may vary according to the product.
Customers should rely on the actual certificate supplied with their product for the specific details applicable to that purchase.
Why Is the Certificate Provided?
The purpose of product documentation is to give the customer an additional reference for identifying the item supplied.
Where applicable, the certificate can assist with:
Product Identification
The certificate provides identifying information associated with the particular product.
Documentation
The customer receives a physical or digital record that can be retained with the product and purchase information.
Traceability
Certificate details can be compared with the relevant product and order information.
Verification
Where a verification facility or confirmation process is available, the certificate information can be used to request confirmation of the applicable documentation.
IHAS and VastuKosha
VastuKosha offers products associated with Vastu, astrology and traditional spiritual practices.
IHAS-related documentation may apply to selected products and is therefore not automatically applicable to every product sold by VastuKosha.
Where IHAS certification is applicable, the product listing or accompanying documentation should indicate the relevant information.
Customers should not assume that the presence of an IHAS Certificate with one product means that every VastuKosha product is IHAS certified.
What the Certificate Does Not Establish
An IHAS Certificate should not, by itself, be interpreted as establishing:
-
Government approval of the product
-
Medical efficacy
-
Therapeutic efficacy
-
Scientific proof of Vastu or astrological effects
-
A guarantee of financial success
-
A guarantee of health benefits
-
A guarantee of relationship or career outcomes
-
A guarantee of any particular personal result
The certificate relates to the applicable product documentation and certification process.
Traditional beliefs, practices and interpretations should be distinguished from objectively measurable product characteristics and independently established scientific claims.
How to Read Your Certificate
When you receive an IHAS Certificate, check the information carefully.
Look for the:
Product Name
Confirm that it corresponds with the product you purchased.
Certificate / Identification Number
Record this number. It may be required when requesting verification.
Date
Check any date or issue information stated on the certificate.
Product Details
Compare the description on the certificate with the product supplied.
Other Identifying Information
Check any additional information appearing on the certificate.
If you identify a material discrepancy, contact VastuKosha before assuming that the certificate is incorrect or that the product is not the one ordered.
How to Verify an IHAS Certificate
Verification should involve more than simply looking at the certificate's appearance.
We recommend the following process:
1. Locate the Certificate
Find the IHAS Certificate supplied with your VastuKosha product.
2. Note the Certificate Number
Identify the certificate or identification number printed on the document.
3. Match the Product
Compare the product name and relevant details on the certificate with the item you received.
4. Match Your Order
Compare the certificate and product information with your VastuKosha order details or invoice.
5. Request Confirmation Where Necessary
If you require confirmation of the certificate, provide VastuKosha with:
-
Order number
-
Certificate number
-
Photograph or scan of the certificate
-
Photograph of the product, where relevant
VastuKosha can review the available product documentation and advise on the applicable verification process.
For the detailed procedure, see:
How to Verify an IHAS Certificate
Protect Your Certificate
We recommend retaining the certificate after purchase.
Keep it together with:
-
Your invoice
-
Order information
-
Product documentation
-
Any applicable care instructions
Do not alter, overwrite or modify the certificate.
If you need assistance in the future, the certificate number and original documentation may help identify the product and its associated records.
Certification Is Product-Specific
Not all VastuKosha products necessarily carry IHAS certification.
Certification or documentation may depend on the specific product, its category and the applicable process.
Therefore, customers should always refer to the individual product listing and the documentation supplied with their purchase.
Transparency in Certification
VastuKosha believes certification claims should be communicated accurately.
We therefore distinguish between:
Product Information
The physical characteristics and specifications of the item.
Traditional Association
The Vastu, astrological or spiritual context traditionally associated with the product.
Certification / Documentation
The applicable certificate or supporting document.
Expected Outcome
An individual's personal experience or result.
These are separate concepts and should not be treated as interchangeable.
Important Note
IHAS certification is applicable only where specifically stated for the relevant product.
The presence of a certificate does not constitute a guarantee of a particular physical, medical, financial, astrological or spiritual outcome.
Customers should evaluate products based on the information provided, their own requirements and applicable professional advice where necessary.
For questions concerning a certificate or product documentation, contact VastuKosha with your order and certificate details.
