1. Introduction to going to sleeping with feet facing West

In this article on how to sleep well we will study the effect of sleeping with our feet facing the West direction. This study about how to sleep well is entirely from the spiritual perspective. It will help us take an educated decision about how to sleep well from the perspective of the direction of our feet when we sleep.
1.1 Spiritual research into how to sleep well – effect of sleeping with our feet facing the West

Seekers of SSRF having advanced sixth sense or extrasensory perception (ESP) did spiritual research into how to sleep well. This was from the perspective of finding out the effect of sleeping with our feet facing the West and the best direction to sleep in. The divine knowledge that they received about the effect of sleeping with our feet facing the West and the best direction to sleep in was verified by His Holiness Dr. Athavale.
2. Spiritual effect of sleeping with the feet facing West
2.1 Benefit of frequencies of Action of God

The frequencies of Action (kriyaalahari) of God are aligned in the East-West direction. Their movement is in the space between these two directions. By sleeping with our feet facing West, we get higher benefit of these frequencies of Action of God. They give us strength to perform our actions.
2.2 Activation of the five vital energies (panchapraana) in the body

Due to the transfer of the frequencies of Action in the body, the five vital energies situated at the level of the navel are activated. These five vital energies throw out the subtle excretory gases from the body through the medium of the sub-vital energies. This helps in the purification of the vital energy body and the sheath of the vital energy body. This makes the person invigorated.
2.3 Benefit of the saattvik frequencies

At dawn saattvik frequencies (apart from the above) are transmitted from the East direction. These saattvik frequencies from the atmosphere enter our body easily from the brahmarandhra of the Kundalini system when we are sleeping with our feet facing the West. This is because then our head faces the East. Brahmarandra is the opening above the 7th Kundalini chakra, i.e. the Sahasraar chakra. By imbibing these saattvik frequencies we too become saattvik. Thus we begin the day with higher saattviktaa. Hence to begin the day on the highest positive note, we should sleep with our feet facing the West.
2.4 Clockwise motion of body cycle

Apart from frequencies of Action (kriyaalahari) of God and the saattvik frequencies at dawn, the pleasant saptatarang (lit. seven-ripple) frequencies come from the East direction. When we sleep with our head in the Eastward direction, we derive maximum benefit from these saptatarang frequencies. Due to their influence our body cycle moves in the clockwise, i.e. desired direction. As a result all body functions are optimised. Body cycle is the subtle intangible system of all gross and subtle body functions.
2.5 Relief from sleep associated raja-tama particles

When we sleep with our feet facing the West, as our head is in the Eastward direction, 10% more saptatarang frequencies are imbibed by the seven Kundalini chakras. As the chakras influenced by the saptatarang frequencies move in the clockwise direction, the person gets benefit at a spiritual level. Hence he does not experience distress from the subtle basic raja-tama particles generated in the body due to the sleeping state. Thus he sleeps well.
3. In summary

From the above explanation we can see that from the perspective of how to sleep well, the East-West direction with the feet facing the West is the best direction to sleep in.
