The Value Of Fengshui

When you must say fengshui is a science subject, all you will come up are troubles. In particular, the theories of fengshui regarding the graves are so problematic.

Nobody can prove to you about the direct relationship between the family members and the predecessors. Of course, the major premise lies in the interaction between the dead and the survivor.

The Classic Of Burying says, "After one-hundred year's development, the body vanishes but the spirit still exists. The ashes of dead get the good vigor(qi) and reflect back to himselves or children." The author's observation may not be justifiable; Besides, the Book Of Burying writes, "burying, the gist of utilizing the vigor (qi), which orginates from the earth and hence moisten everything."

This theory is not reasonable either. But it would be a mistake to conclude that fengshui burying amounts to nothing. Fengshui, to be exact, teaches us to observe the language of nature.

For good or for bad, the children's life path may not have direct relations with the fengshui. Even if I observe many examples myself, I can't jump to the conclusion that fengshui helps people through all difficulties. I will say, all mountaineers can tell you the mighty of nature and the tiny of mankind. Learning fengshui enables us to get the big picture, and the benefit to children is just a pure bonus

The famous Japanese detective fiction " Devil's felt " describes the humpback killed numerous people by his handsome appearance, in which the modus operandi are panic-stricken. Although the story per se is fabricated, the truths in this world are sometimes more strange.

When I arrived at Province X of Guangzhou 4 years ago, all I wanted to do was mountaineering. However, I only overheard, " feng-shui master? They are only liars! " . Imagine how upset I was to learn about this when I was just a passer-by!

I made up my mind to find out the causes of the problem. It was all because of a family, which the members were kind-hearted but, unluckily, rickety at the same time. They appealed to the help of modern medicine but their hopes were gone with their wealth. What's worse, when their grandson was born, he still suffered from that malady.

The grandfather opined that they might be required to compensate for their ancestors' mistakes instead. As long as they performed more alms deed, the offspring would no longer met the same thing. His son was quite a good man; and he adhered to the metaphysics so seriously that he "invested" each penny on it! Needless to say, all these ended up nothing.

On observing his son's infirmity, he was on the verge of collapse......The most worrying factor was the little boy -- Putting aside the possible deprival of survivorship by his father, to what extent his upspring would be affected by the paranoiac father? And the words from villagers were eldritch, "are they all punished by the god?"

I went for their house and informed them of my feng-shui inspection. The collocation of the house could be boiled down to three words: darkness, hopelessness and strangeness. There was a man in it, who was dressing up unconsciously with a twitched smile on his face. Obviously, he was losing his mind. The situation was so weird that I would not forget for the rest of my life.

"Please leave. We have no more money left. We can't afford to pay a feng-shui master." The grandfather ordered me to leave, but I did not move a step.

"All I want is the truth; you need not pay me anything."

"Are you telling me that you will solve my problem in a day while we were helpless in the face of it for 40 years?" The old man's comment just came right to the point.

I stood in front of the house a half day, watching the scenes and mountains for a long time. I couldn't reach any conclusion at all ......

Following the logical arrangement, it is time that the feng-shui master used a brilliant way to solve the problem, and boosted himself by tackling the 40-year mystery. Nonetheless, it cannot be observed here.

I was trying my luck and I needed give up my knowledge to adopt a new one. It indeed pained me.. "Master, have you seen enough?" Seeing me standing helpless outside, the old man asked me.

"Ah, I am no master at all." I felt extremely embarrassed in the face of this environment.

"Many masters opine the water and mountains of my house are perfect. So, they advise me to take a look at my predecessors' tomb for making any mistake. But I really don't know where the tomb is....." The bitter in these words can still be keenly felt in and out of the land.....

I roughly drew a map and went back to hotel for a sleepless night. The second day also wasn't easy for me. With the heaviest footsteps, all I had was the apologetic expression.

"Sorry, old folk. Frankly speaking, I got nothing to help you. But could you please listen to my speculations?"

"I have already worshipped all our gods......"

"Negative. As it has been said, it should be the water instead of mountains to kill people. In the light of the situation, the thorn should be out of water. I suggest shifting the bearing of the main door to avoid present bearing."

"But how?"

"The coordinate now is 315 degree, and you may make it at 300 degree. Although the good mountains are no longer under your control, I believe it is worth a trial." "What can I do if it doesn't work?"

"Then try another ways....." I left at once when I dropped these words. I really can't estimate whether it is a solution. Is it the limitation of me or the knowledge? I just don't know. I cast doubt on everything.

Considering that all I have done was a gamble, the old man and I won the game. Eventually, after the change, the whole family has now become better off. Most importantly, the man resume his confidence and brave the life again. Even though many stuff has been gone down in history, people concerned feel much warmer.

I also come to realize one thing: no matter how classical the theory is, it may only end in a dream. Since then, I never believe what I learnt completely. In addition, practicing feng-shui is just like conducting oneself in society ˘w˘w There is no such thing as sufficiency in these aspects.
