Dr. Mrutyunjaya Dash, the Director of The Sthapatya Kala, has a remarkable journey marked by a transition from technology to ancient wisdom. Coming from a Brahmin family, Dr. Dash completed his academic studies in Software Engineering and initially worked as a software developer in an MNC. Despite his success in the tech field, he felt a deeper calling towards divine studies, greatly inspired by his grandfather, a retired government teacher with profound knowledge in ancient mythology.

Driven by this inspiration, Dr. Dash decided to leave his software profession and immerse himself fully in the study of Vastu Shastra, astrology, numerology, and graphology. To solidify his expertise, he pursued and successfully completed a PhD in Astrology and Vastu Shastra. Furthering his knowledge, he also earned an academic degree in Interior Design from a reputed university.

With a vision to educate and spread awareness about Vastu Shastra, Dr. Dash founded The Sthapatya Kala. Under his leadership, the institute has trained over 900 students, bridging the gap between traditional wisdom and modern education. His dedication aims to enlighten both educated and uneducated people about the significance and benefits of Vastu Shastra.
