Shri Chandrasekharan,

In your OP there is nothing indicating any foreigner's praise for whatever has been written there. The name Dr.Anthony Shieh hangs loosely, imo.

Coming to East being the most auspicious direction, it was because the sun rises there and gives the daylight and it is commonsense to face the source of light when doing anything, including yagas, yajnas, writing, etc. Thus, East became the most auspicious of directions. But the concept of the eight diks seems to be based on the notion of a Flat rectangular or square earth, imo. Will it put our ancient concepts in a good light?
