The true content of Feng Shui

The true content of Feng Shui

Many people have heard of Feng Shui more or less, but more people's understanding of Feng Shui still lies in the relatively superficial understanding of house watching and fortune-telling. In fact, the real content of Feng Shui has ten aspects:

1. View the sky. The effect of stars in the universe on people

The ancients paid great attention to the influence of the sun, moon, and stars on humans. Fengshui was mainly manifested in lighting, standing, and day selection.

The four seasons of the year, month, day and time of the Yuan Dynasty are all formed by the celestial cycle, so the influence of the movement of celestial bodies on people is beyond doubt. The so-called contempt, contempt for heaven, and condescension. Only when there is genius, there is land, and when there is land, there is water and everything. Observing the sky, understanding the sky, the sky is coming up, the earth's virtues are downloaded, the image is formed in the sky, and the earth is formed. Choosing feng shui land according to the sky has become the most primitive and basic knowledge in feng shui.

2. Identify quality. The quality of wind (air), water, and ground (soil), and its effects on people

This is the basis of Feng Shui. The wind referred to here is the air that people breathe, the water is the water that people eat, the source water, and the soil is the soil for planting crops and the soil in the acupuncture points. Because air, water, and soil are the most basic substances that humans rely on for survival. If the wind (air) quality is not good, the water quality is not good, and the soil quality is not good, it will cause bad living things, cause illnesses, and cause disasters. I think no one would deny this.

Ancient Fengshui masters mainly used methods such as looking at the air and smelling the air to determine the air quality, methods such as water and fish breeding to determine the quality of water, and methods such as kneading and tasting the soil to determine the quality of the soil.

Xuexin Fuyun: The grass is luxuriant, the water is deep and the soil is thick, which is one of the methods to determine the quality of wind, water and soil by eye.

3. Observe the shape. The effect of geomantic shape and affection on people

The wind referred to here is both air and space. Water is the ditches, streams, rivers, lakes and seas formed by the accumulation of water. Land is a plain of hills and ridges formed by the accumulation of soil. Later, feng shui experts called the mountains directly connected behind the location (acupoints) of the yin and yang house as "dragon", and other hills as "sand".

In the process of multiplying, administering the country and keeping the people in peace, and marching and fighting , mankind discovered that it is very important to observe the astronomical phenomenon, survey the landform, understand the topography, and distinguish the geology. It is related to the survival of mankind, the long-term stability of the country, and the success and failure of wars, thus forming Feng Shui. The original theory of learning-geography.

Fengshui experts have discovered that the shape and appearance of landscapes can affect human behavior and good fortune.

Fengshui also personalizes the mountain and river space, and understands the expression of affection according to the three forms of the mountain and river space. Those who are passionate in the yin and yang house are auspicious, those who are ruthless in the yin and yang house are not lucky, and those who are unkind to the yin and yang house are evil. This is the higher-level theory of Feng Shui.

Feng Shui of these contents is called "Physique". More detailed explanations can be found in Feng Shui classics such as "Qingwu Jing", "Burial Sutra", "Xuexin Fu", "Shaking Dragon Sutra", "Suspicious Dragon Sutra", "Fawei Fu", "Guide to the Son of Man" and other books.

4. Take breath. The effect of feng shui on people

Feng Shui believes that there is an invisible and intangible qi among the three elements of wind, water, and earth. This qi is not the qi of the air, but a kind of qi that is circulated, converged, nurtured, and embodied in the space of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers. Things that can, cannot be expressed, and cannot be measured with a compass. "Qi" can be divided into "good luck", "bad" and "zhongqi". Only by being able to get this kind of qi, receiving anger, and abandoning fierce qi, can you reach the highest level of Feng Shui. Therefore, Cheng Qi is the top technique of Feng Shui.

The burial book states that "qi produces harmony, qi comes from form, qi stops with power, qi travels with earth, qi meets with dragons", "shape stops qi accumulates, transforms all things", "burial person, hides also, and multiplies vitality." Husband's yin and yang energy is the wind, rising as clouds, falling as rain, and going to the earth, it is anger." Yes.

The three articles of "Yifutang", "Ten Methods of Inner Demonstration of Invigoration", "Ten Methods of Extrinsic Proof of Invigoration", and "Feng Shui Auspicious Qi and Fierce Qi", have the introduction of knowledge methods.

5. Test side. The effect of geomantic field's magnetic field on people

This is a very important content in Feng Shui. The main measuring tool is the compass. According to the experience of the ancients, it was discovered that the location of the landscape around the Yin-Yang House, interacting with the direction and position of the Yin-Yang House, will have a direct and indirect impact on mankind, and will affect the survival of human beings, the rise and fall of mankind. As a result, a large number of doctrines have been produced to deduct and infer. Fengshui experts call it "liqi".

6. Positioning. Choice of location and direction of Yinyang House

After mastering the above principles, you can choose to determine the location of the Yin-Yang House. It is called "pointing" in Feng Shui.

Acupuncture is the core of Feng Shui, because all the efforts of Feng Shui masters are based on the site selection of Yin and Yang houses. All feng shui environments are aimed at yin and yang houses. Because only the real acupuncture point is the place where the vitality of feng shui converges and the auspicious qi of feng shui is obtained.

First choose the location of the yin and yang house, and then choose the most suitable direction for the construction to receive the vitality of the surrounding landscape and space. This is called "Li Xiang", and Li Xiang has become the key to Feng Shui.

You can see that many outstanding buildings now face the north and the south and the midday direction of the mountain. It can be seen that Feng Shui pays much attention to the choice of direction.

7. Choose a time. The role of geomantic omen and time on people

The ancients discovered that the construction of yin and yang houses in different directions at different years, months and days will also have a great effect on the prosperity and decline of people. Even some major national, social, and life events can also be determined by the choice of time. Increase blessing or success, thus creating a doctrine of choosing time. It is called "day class" in Fengshui. Day classes mainly include life creation, Tianxing, Heluo, Doushou, Qimen, Liuren, Yanqi, Zibai, etc.

Fengshui experts also found that the different time periods of the Three Yuan and Nine Luck will also affect the quality of the Yin and Yang House to varying degrees. Therefore, a variety of schools such as the Sanyuan Xuankong and Six Methods have been formed.

Because time is something that is produced by the movement of the sky and the earth and is perceivable by human beings, since man and the sky and the earth are one body, the effect of time on man is logical.

According to the above analysis, Feng Shui doctrine not only includes heaven, earth, wind, water and other substances, but also includes time. It is a coordinated combination of time, space and land, and is the most comprehensive and systematic macro analysis and optimization.

8. Construction. Design and Construction of Yin Yang House and Improvement of Feng Shui Land

Chinese Fengshui considers the design and construction in the construction of yin and yang houses as one of the methods that must be mastered to follow the whole process of building yin and yang houses. For example, the interior selection and arrangement of the construction direction, lighting, size, height, color, room, stove, bed, door, furniture, etc. of the sun house, as well as the exterior of wells, gates, roads, bridges, toilets, water outlets, etc. Design and arrangement, etc.

No place can be perfect, and some disadvantages can be changed manually. The so-called cleverness of vision and skill of workmanship.

From the Houlong Mountain and Shuikou Mountain in the ancient villages, a large number of trees were planted and strictly protected, we can know that the ancients paid great attention to the construction of the ecological environment. There are also many methods such as changing river courses, building bridges, building roads, digging ponds, enclosing walls, and building towers to change the geomantic land to obtain a good living environment. This is the merit of Feng Shui.

Feng Shui calls these practices of work skills, which are also compulsory courses and skills for Feng Shui masters. Therefore, the ancient Fengshui masters were also architects.

9. Follow etiquette. The customs and etiquette of respecting the ancestors and respecting the ancestors, and being cautious in chasing far away, is an important way to reflect filial piety

To bury their ancestors is the best way for Chinese people to chase far away and respect their ancestors. The so-called "going into the soil" means peace. People live from the ground and return to the ground. Choose a place surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, concentrated spiritual energy, and full of vitality. The bones of the ancestors, erect a stele, build a tomb, and engrave the name of the ancestors, so that future generations can pay tribute to the ancestors, remember the ancestors' virtues, inherit the past and the future, and carry forward the past. This is of great significance to the ethical construction and social progress of the Chinese people. Underestimated.

Fengshui stipulates that in the process of burying the ancestors, a certain ceremony must be carried out to entrust the grief of future generations and show the filial piety of future generations.

In the construction of the sun house, certain rituals and procedures must also be followed when dealing with major social or life events. Although the regulations of these rituals are different from place to place, they are also a practical content and a non-negligible part of Feng Shui. It is precisely with these rituals that the implementation of Feng Shui can be completed step by step and courteously. This invisibly forms a kind of folklore heritage.

10. Jade. Encourage people to do their filial piety, persuade people to be kind, urge people to make progress, make people happy, and tell people to conform to the laws of nature and optimize the natural environment to improve the value of life and the meaning of social life. This is the basic idea and highest goal of Feng Shui.

The ancients believed that the heaven, the earth and the man are one, and the human heart is connected with the spiritual energy of the heaven and the earth. A beautiful mind can have a sense of good feng shui auspicious qi, and only those with a good mind can get a beautiful yin and yang house, and can be treated with good feng shui auspiciousness. On the contrary, people with ugly hearts cannot get a beautiful yin and yang house, they can only get an ugly yin and yang house, and they will only be punished by the fierce feng shui. Therefore, Fengshui attaches great importance to the spiritual shaping and purification of Fengshui users and geographers, and attaches great importance to the cultivation and accumulation of morals. This is also the so-called "Blessing is born from the heart, and the earth is created by the heart".

Feng Shui can change the fate of heaven and gain magical powers. This is the high affirmation of the ancients to Feng Shui. Feng Shui tells people to be able to conform to the laws of nature, achieve harmony between man and nature, and optimize the natural environment. In this way, a good yin and yang house will be created. With the auspicious sense and shelter of a good feng shui place, oneself and future generations will be able to do so. Safe and prosperous, so Ding Caiguixiu and Baifu are here. If everyone can get good feng shui and all auspiciousness, society will become harmonious because of everyone’s peace and happiness, and the nation-state will also become harmonious because of everyone’s achievements. Every family is developed and the society is harmonious and prosperous. This is the greatest contribution of Feng Shui to mankind.
