Basic Fengshui

"Fengshui" is always an arguable topic, which not everybody can agree to it.

"Fengshui" is actually all about energy.
It is the science of harnessing energy.
It is all base on philosophical, astrological, cosmological, mathematical, geographical and physics concepts.
Fengshui is about how we balance the energy of the surrounding so that it became the supporting energy to us.
It is how we create a harmony surrounding so that we can balance our energy with the nature.
Fengshui has nothing to do with religion.
It is not magic either.

Fengshui is like the story of boiling a frog slowly, it takes at least 7 years to show the effects.
Please do not have myth that if you are staying in a not so suitable fengshui place, means you will fall sick instantly...
Or disaster have to fall on you... or your family will be broken in the very next moment ...

not so dramatic la.

It takes time to ripe.


Chinese has a saying: 一命二运

Meaning,
There are three elements influence our life: Birthdate, merits (luck), fengshui

The first one is our birthdate.
Well, we cannot choose when to be born.
So, we cannot do anything for the first element to change our fate to a better.

The second element is our merits, or luck.
It depends on how much prayer and charity we did.
This is within our control, but depends on how much effort you can put in.

The third element is fengshui.
This is the easiest element to change, to help our life to be better.
Why not we modify the "fengshui" arround us, and create a smoother path for us in whatever we are doing?


That is why we need to know fengshui.
So that we can change the unsupportive energy to become the supportive energy.
So that we can balance the unbalance energy in our home or work place.


In the example that I gave previously,
regarding the condominium carpark ...
Many developers nowadays try to squeeze every inch of the land, make full use of it, to earn the maximum money.
That is why they build the carpark underneath the staying unit.
There are still many condominium with carpark just surrounding the staying unit, instead of underneath.


Human is very tolerant.
They will just accept what came to them.
Like the modern world is changing such that the condominium have carpark underneath, human will just accept it as it is alright to be like that.


Well, if the carpark is underneath the condominium, and if it is not good, will it affect the thousand units of people who are staying there?

Definitely it will...
But if a person has strong merits, then he will not get affected so much.


Or,


If a person's work suppose to have lesser obstacles, he may have more headache after staying in this type of condominium.


That's all, nothing dramatic will happen.


Again, you choose the suitable energy for yourself.
So that your sailing is smooth.




Just like everybody is taking the same amount of food, some will get fat, some will fall sick, some will just be normal.
It depends on a person's immunity system, right?


So if everybody stay in the same condominium, some will get affected a lot, some little, some is fine, it depends on their good karma too...


But if you have a choice, why not eat healthily, so that you won't fall sick?
Same thing, if you have a choice, stay in a better condominium, instead of risk your luck.



But for business, they need to have moving energy, and not static energy.
Thus, it is fine for shopping complex or office building to have carpark underneath.


For places to stay and sleep, we need static energy, not so much of movement, so that we can tap into the good energy from the ground.


There are many aspects that we have to consider in calculating the energy.
What I share here is just a general guideline.




I personally saw many cases, where fengshui really affected their career, or family, or health, or wealth.
Like the example of the grave of my friend's parents, that affect him to have backache...

All are real cases.


Ok, Today share one more tip with you all.

Never have an island stove in your kitchen like this:

Why?
I will explain in my next post.
Meanwhile, you can argue or give your opinion, that's how we learn, right?
:)


Fengshui ...
Believe it or not?
It is up to you...

I choose to believe, because I can see it myself. I can prove it with science.

You are most right. Fengshui is also the art of logical placement as it is believed that every single entity, every single atom has its special function and works best when it is placed in the most suitable locations.

When I had my Feng Shui done for our office, the master took into account my name and birthdate in order to adjust how much my desk should be moved away from the wall and all that. I too believe everything counts.

I think you are right in saying that everyone will be affected by feng shui to a different degree based on their personal bazi, their merit and karma.

I agree in using feng shui to balance the energy to our benefit.
