Chinese tombs have been fastidious about Feng Shui since ancient times, so what is Feng Shui?
The essence of Feng Shui is Yin and Yang. The original intention of Guo Pu's creation of Feng Shui is to refer to the dragon's movement and stop, and to talk about the opposition and copulation of Yin and Yang. Long Xing is bound to roar and wind, and the wind is active; When the dragon stops, there will be sand around the water for the sign, and the water will be quiet. The meaning of geomantic omen is to choose a place where the dragon can stop, and make use of it by means of architecture, so as to absorb the vitality of Lapras and the exuberant hall spirit.
second, how many feng shui schools are there?
The geomantic omen in China originated very early, but it has always been "the skill of emperors". It is hidden in the royal palace and rarely circulated among the people. Yang Junsong, the master of the Tang Dynasty, brought him to Gannan, Jiangxi Province, where he was taught by disciples and spread among the people. Therefore, Yang Gong was honored as the founder of Feng Shui. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the time of peace and prosperity was correspondingly long, and the demand for Feng Shui talents increased sharply. The geomantic talents trained by Yang Gong in the form of apprenticeships are far from meeting the needs of society, resulting in a large number of down-and-out literati, monks, Taoist priests and intelligent people from other branches of the Yi-ology field devoting themselves to geomantic research. Because these people have no teachers, they can't decipher the scriptures written by Yang Gonglingo, and they can only understand Yang Gong's classic works according to their own experience, thus creating many schools of Feng Shui. The increase of Feng Shui schools, on the one hand, promotes the development of Feng Shui research, and plays a great role in popularizing Feng Shui, but it also has a huge negative effect. Because at that time, they respected the past and did not write their own names, but printed books under the name of Yang Gong. All schools said that their own theories were the true biography of Yang Gong, which created many eternal mysteries. There are many schools in the field of geomantic omen, and the voices of chickens and dogs are familiar with each other, and the old and the dead are not in contact with each other. The factions have been arguing for nearly a thousand years!
historically, there was a major misunderstanding in the division of geomantic schools: it is wrong and unrealistic to divide geomantic schools into two categories: situation school and rational style. It doesn't make any practical sense. And it is easy to lead people astray.
In fact, no matter which school, as long as it is not deceptive pseudo-geomantic omen, it insists that the situation is the body of geomantic omen, and regulating qi is the basic principle of geomantic omen.
the division of feng shui schools is actually formed by the differences in the methods of regulating qi.
in the method of regulating qi, it can be roughly divided into two major schools, with many branches under it.
The school that directly adopts eight diagrams to manage qi is the school of eight diagrams to manage qi. Including Bazhai School, Xuankong Feixing School (there are six big schools and more than 1 small schools), Qimen Feng Shui, Heluo Feng Shui, Dasanyuan Yi Li School, Jinsuo Yuguan and so on.
The school that adopts the principles of Yin-Yang and Five Elements in Hetu, Luoshu and the Eight Diagrams in Successive Days is the Five Elements School. Including Yang Gong geomantic omen, Neo-Trinity School, numerology geomantic omen, Zhengwuxing geomantic omen, etc.
We can't completely deny the schools of Feng Shui, nor can we combine the theories and operational skills of each school of Feng Shui. We should adhere to the principle that practice is the only criterion for testing truth, discard the false and retain the true, discard the rough and extract the fine, and the field of geomantic omen needs to be thoroughly cleaned up, so we should not leave the ancient geomantic mystery to future generations!
third, why does feng shui affect people's fate?
people live in society, some are rich and expensive, some are mediocre, some are ups and downs, some are safe, some live longer than Nanshan, and some die young. Between people, there is indeed a difference between rich and poor and premature death.
what determines a person's wealth, poverty and premature death? In the words that everyone can accept, in the final analysis, it is caused by the differences in one's physical strength, intelligence, personality, interpersonal relationship, social environment, personal efforts and so on.
why are there all kinds of differences between people? Western science believes that it is caused by genetic differences. However, according to this theory, the genes of a family are similar, because heredity has relatively stable characteristics. This can't explain the basic fact that there are great achievers in ancient and modern China and abroad, and few descendants can inherit their achievements. It can't explain the phenomenon that some people in a family can create brilliant achievements, others have achieved nothing, some are strong, some are sick and painful, and some people's lives are like a flash in the pan. Humans come from a common ancestor. Why are human individuals so different? Genetic theory can never explain or answer this question.
geomantic omen can reasonably explain these imaginations that cannot be explained by western science by the theory of human-nature induction and the fact that different time and space have different effects on people. It turns out that the differences between human individuals are due to their different time and space ranges and different time and space points when they are fertilized and ovulated, which leads to the differences in gene combinations, physical strength, intelligence, personality and so on.
in the final analysis, geomantic omen is a science of finding the time and space that is most suitable for human physiological and psychological activities!
People spend at least half their time living in a villa, and the influence of villa on people is understandable to most people. A slightly sensitive person will feel comfortable when he walks into a house with good feng shui, and will feel uncomfortable immediately when he walks into a house with bad feng shui.
