Statement
Raise the floor uniformly on all sides; an unavoidable fault belongs in the east or north, where it is least serious. Raised-floor effects: east — conflict with friends; south — fear of death; west — loss of wealth; north — mental affliction. A house raised in the east or north loses wealth and children; a foul-smelling house kills a son; a crooked one kills kinsmen; one facing no definite direction is childless.
Internal Tension Note
53.115 (raised E/N: loss of wealth and children) sits uneasily beside 53.116–117 (E/N the least serious fault directions); Bhat reconciles by severity — the E/N faults are real but mildest [MODERN — M.R. Bhat (1981)]. Logged as Q27.
