About feng shui
Feng Shui and superstition are two completely different things. Geomantic omen, like mathematics, has certain formula calculation and deduction methods. Anyone who is familiar with and master deductive method can translate and use it. The depth of deduction depends entirely on the height of Feng Shui research and the skill and proficiency of deduction. No mystery; There is no need to "shout" with superstition. The introduction of superstition in Feng Shui, especially the superstition of "fooling around", has its historical reasons and limitations in Feng Shui research. It is a superstition mixed in Feng Shui, but it limits the development of Feng Shui.
What is Feng Shui? Use scientific thinking.
The essence of geomantic omen is expressed in modern Chinese: creation and choice have superior living conditions and advantages; Rational use of natural objective conditions and laws; Meet the key points such as necessity, rationality, comfort, practicality, convenience, superiority, safety, aesthetics and hygiene; Conforming to the principles of mechanics and science; Common sense and logic are both good feng shui. There is no mysterious feng shui that is puzzling!
Use necessary, reasonable, comfortable, practical, convenient, beneficial, safe, beautiful and hygienic standards to evaluate and consider various things respectively. Good feng shui is necessary, reasonable, comfortable, practical, convenient, beneficial, safe, beautiful and hygienic. On the contrary, it will be bad, that is, feng shui is not good. No matter how good feng shui is, it can't be said that it is necessary, reasonable, comfortable, practical, convenient, favorable, safe, beautiful and hygienic, but it can only be regarded as strange talk. No matter how good feng shui is, the core must be suitable for human living and living activities.
Must: It means that these structures and settings are necessary, indispensable and not necessary, but they have little substantive significance and have no influence on normal life. These structures and settings are necessary for human beings to serve human beings. It is not appropriate to change these settings, which means it must be.
Practicality: For example, where windows can only be found, good lighting effect means good feng shui. In other places, the lighting effect is not good or there is no lighting at all, which is actually bad feng shui. For another example, it is best to choose the location of drilling wells by means of feng shui and qi management, but if there is no water, it will be futile and meaningless at all. Therefore, it is more practical to choose the position that can ensure drainage first when drilling wells. Another example is: How about hanging copper coins from copper gourd and Emperor Wu near the bedside window? ———— No practical value. If there is no anti-theft safety net or window, the bedside cannot be close to the window, which is unsafe. Finding all the emperors' money, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, will not solve the problem. On this issue, installing anti-theft safety windows can offset the feng shui money of hanging 10 thousand emperors.
Convenience: For example, the door should be smooth and convenient. If it is inconvenient, it will only increase the burden of going in and out, which is actually bad feng shui.
Safety: Although the pool around the house is good, there are not a few children who fall into it. As long as a child is in distress, the geomantic omen of the whole house will be denied for several years-discrediting, not repairing fish ponds to live a good life, and repairing fish is troublesome, and you will not be rewarded. For another example, no matter what theoretical evaluation is used, as long as the place where bonsai is placed is unstable and unsafe, it is not convenient for viewing and management, and it hinders normal activities, it will only lead to disasters and difficulties. Another example: Taishan stone, the side where the gate does not hinder the passage is the best. What does not hinder the passage is Taishan stone, and what hinders the passage is a stumbling block.
About "Creation and selection have superior living conditions and survival advantages" In ancient times, correct and reasonable selection and utilization of superior natural conditions were the main factors. With the progress of science and technology in modern society, it has become possible to create a better living space. The intensity of modern transformation has laid a good foundation for human living conditions, thus providing the possibility for creating superior geomantic omen. Artificial feng shui is better than natural feng shui because it contains a lot of scientific and technological factors and is more suitable for human beings. It is certainly beneficial to think in the direction of science and common sense.
The core of traditional geomantic conception is axisymmetrical theory. That is, a straight line is extended from a certain point, that is, sitting on a mountain, along this straight line, spreading left and right, spreading back and forth, forming a symmetrical figure (symmetrical figure means: a figure is folded in half, and the shapes on both sides can completely overlap along this line), which is considered to be the most standardized Feng Shui scheme. In the natural state of the site, the terrain is complex, but the basic idea is to find the balance point of relative and symmetry and evaluate the concept of symmetry of the central axis. Such as: Zuo Qinglong, right white tiger; Vestibular case, leaning against the mountain; Tianxin uses ten things. All activities are based on the thinking concept of axis symmetry. Why emphasize the symmetry of the central axis? The core meaning is still based on the conclusion inspired by the aesthetic characteristics of harmony between man and nature and human development. From the perspective of circle, square and right, the shape of human body is irregular, but one of the basic characteristics of human development is the most beautiful, that is, left-right symmetry. Ancient people's understanding of geomantic omen is not excluded from being inspired by the beauty of human body. Since the natural arrangement of heaven and earth is symmetrical and man is the spirit of all things, as a matter of geomantic omen, it is also considered that left and right are the best.
The geomantic concept of modern residence is: function, practicality, convenience, safety, beauty and hygiene. Make the best use of everything, and heaven will follow. Waste of resources, widespread indignation and resentment. Feminine, bring disgrace to oneself. I want to walk into the rain and feel uneasy. Gild the lily, superfluous action. The quality of feng shui ultimately depends on the mentality of the parties, such as good mentality, good feng shui, poor mentality and bad feng shui. Feng shui can predict certain events. Optimists and pessimists, in the same event, because of different perspectives, make different voices, and the consequences of guidance are very different. Feng shui can't determine some characteristics of things' changes, but it can detect some characteristics of things' changes. For example, the two doors at home are facing each other. Why don't they match each other, but they fight with each other? Why do doors and windows look after each other, but they are dumbfounded? Here, everything is still things, there is no magic. The magic is the mind of the client, and the mind is the window of the human soul. What kind of mentality the parties have, what kind of ideas they will have, and psychological orientation will lead them into the field of imagination and behavior. Another example: the house is feng shui, and the hut is like a kitchen knife. A kitchen knife is not necessarily for evil. It is normal thinking to cut meat and eat meat with a kitchen knife. A kitchen knife is abnormal thinking. Why don't you think of a kitchen knife when you don't cut meat? Psychological reasons, this is feng shui. Can a modern family live without a kitchen knife? Different psychological values often have different consequences. Another example: the temple, you think it will protect you, it really protects you, you think fear is terrible, it is really terrible. Why is it terrible? I have something in my head. It's all in your head. Another example: Couples paste cartoon girls' pictures, which like to look good and don't like to be upset. Psychology leads to two different emotions. Another example is the merit archway, which can be a positive teaching material to awaken people's hearts. It can also be considered as unnecessary waste, and it can also be considered as a building with bad feng shui. Different mentality, different voice.
Regardless of public stairs and elevators, only private houses are considered to be lacking, which is considered to be a serious shortage. Feng Shui believes that ladders are not lacking, not only lacking, but also lacking in the whole building, which is the life and soul of the whole building. A very simple truth is that without a ladder, the whole building is just a dead building. Only one ladder can make the whole building practical and intelligent. Adding stairs to the house is the whole of the house. If you can't take away the common part, it is not the whole of the house. Such a concept and theory of Feng Shui is a narrow personal psychological theory, and the consequences induced by such a theory can only be one-sided selfish humanity, and the further derivation gap is even greater, which is also the reason why Feng Shui has magical effects.
How to measure the convexity and concavity of a complete set of houses in a city: Modern buildings do have convexity and concavity. Why? I don't know, it's always flat. Isn't it possible to increase the construction area and reduce the construction cost by building flat coffins and boxes? Why are builders and designers so stupid that they lose money to vacant rooms? I have lived in such a house for more than ten years and experienced it for more than ten years. Some of them have figured it out, while others haven't. It turns out that some vacancies are necessary for lighting and ventilation, some are necessary for the overall aesthetic effect, and some are inevitable for structural mechanics. This contains profound principles of geomantic omen, which is worth pondering.
The structural room type of the community depends on the whole house, so what kind of room type is considered. I want to believe that developers and designers will not be stupid enough to throw ready-made money into the gap. Strange shapes must have strange meanings. It is necessary to have a deeper understanding from the perspectives of aesthetics, mechanics, science and common sense in order to correctly grasp these house shapes. Don't let the simple illusion of the handle house hinder fresh thinking.
Because of the design and some needs, the apartment units in the city are convex and concave, which can't be compared with the concave and convex houses built today and tomorrow in the countryside, nor can we measure the apartment units with design schemes in the city by the convex and concave view of that house. A complete house in a city should at least consider the overall mechanical balance of the house from the angles of mechanics, science and common sense. Without these convexities and concavities, it does not conform to the scientific design essentials such as mechanical principles, and directly conflicts with the essence of Feng Shui concept.
The combination of traditional geomantic conception and modern geomantic conception should be regular, symmetrical, functional, practical, convenient, safe, hygienic and beautiful. The construction and selection of dormitory, indoor layout and office furniture should also be conceived from these aspects. It is worth noting that: from an aesthetic point of view, modern urban residential buildings have high feng shui advantages and effects.
It should be noted that dormitory, house decoration and furniture should be light and soft, not too old-fashioned. Light and tender, it looks bright and sunny in rooms and houses; Old, indoors and indoors look gloomy and gloomy. Wearing clothes of old colors makes people look calm, sophisticated and experienced.
If the terrain permits, the orientation of the house should respect the laws of nature, and the north-south direction is the best. Warm in winter and cool in summer, naturally choose the best feng shui. The location of the gate is the most convenient to enter. If it does not conform to the principle of convenient access, it is some principles that are most in line with the norms of Feng Shui, and it is just an empty door. What do you mean by failure? The reality is that it has no practical value and significance.
The kitchen and bathroom should be located in the north of the house or in the hot mountainous terrain in spring and summer. Especially in the kitchen, the best and most suitable scheme should be set in the north direction of the house or the air outlet of the hot mountain terrain in spring and summer. This is incompatible with the traditional concept of geomantic omen, but it conforms to the setting of natural wind direction. The general trend of air flow in China is (observable): it is hot in spring and summer, and the general trend of air is from south to north, that is, the south wind dominates. After the cold weather in autumn and winter, the overall airflow direction is from north to south, that is, the north wind dominates. This airflow characteristic, the kitchen is located in the north direction, which is beneficial to take the hot air generated by the kitchen out of the room when the hot south wind dominates in spring and summer; When it is cold in autumn and winter and the north wind dominates, the hot air generated by the kitchen is brought indoors. Relatively speaking, the room looks warm in winter and cool in summer. Similarly, the toilet is hot in spring and summer, dominated by the south wind, and the smell of the toilet can be taken out of the room. It is cold in autumn and winter, and the north wind dominates, that is, the smell of the toilet is brought indoors, and the probability of bacteria and viruses breeding is much lower, which is beneficial to people's physical and mental health. Benefit from the laws of nature correctly and think more from a scientific perspective.
There are treasures everywhere, and science is even more magical.
Outstanding people, things are different, beautiful mountains and rivers. In the inaccessible places in the world, human beings have used their lives to screen several places suitable for human feng shui from the beginning, leaving a large number of continuous populations, such as cities. Geomantic treasures that are not suitable for human habitation need to be developed and utilized in a more scientific way.
Go to those backcountry places, don't think that no one has been there. In fact, there are many sites there, which prove that someone has been there and that those who have been there have passed the test of life and death. Because of the gap between Feng Shui and Feng Shui, it was naturally eliminated completely. When you go to a big city, why do you leave so many people there? The answer is: there is a wider advantage of geomantic omen, and natural selection enables the population there to continue and expand.
Rural areas are basically microclimate terrain, forming an independent pond bureau, which is not conducive to survival. Natural selection and natural elimination in rural areas are extremely obvious. In these small environments, the choice of terrain location is unreasonable, and it is meaningless to use a compass, which is called Feng Shui and Qi management. Without the rationality of the terrain, the use of the compass becomes a child's play. Therefore, in these small environments, terrain selection is the first and the foundation; The use of the compass is secondary.
Example 1: If houses are built in rural areas with gas barriers, the probability of deaf-mute disabled families is at least 90%. What are the obstacles and how to observe and evaluate them on the spot? The simplest view is: the so-called gas barrier is an area where dew does not show after 9 or 10 am on a hot day.
Example 2: A mountainous terrain, on the North-South River, is about five miles long. In the past, all the families lived in the east coast, which is the sunny area in the west. Now all the residents live in the west coast, which is the sunny area in the east. Where did the original East Coast families go? According to rumors and surveys, about 30% of the population moved to the West Bank, and 70% of the population lived there for less than one or two generations and died naturally. Only one family lived there for four generations and died of natural causes.
Ex. 3: In another place, the rivers in the mountainous area run from north to south, and now they are repeating the characteristics of the above terrain. The east coast faces the advantage of population decrease and the west coast faces the advantage of population increase. The strangest thing is that among dozens of families on both sides of the strait, only three or four families live on the west coast, one family has two children who have finished college education, and the rest basically go to society in the state of primary school. Why did primitive people choose the East Coast to live in these two places? The reason is that the topography of the east coast is wider than that of the west coast, which is convenient for farming and various activities. Why do people now choose to settle in the West Bank? The reason is that the sunshine on the west coast is better than that on the east coast, and the accumulated temperature and temperature difference are relatively obviously higher than that on the east coast. Like this, due to sunlight, there is a temperature difference between the east and west coasts. We can't use a simple "superstition" to sum up the problem, let alone blame the improper use of the compass, and let alone blame the inappropriate reason of "genus". Those places are completing natural selection and natural elimination.
Case 4: The investigation conclusion shows that there are many settlements and surnames in the microclimate environment in mountainous areas, some of which are hearsay and some are not. It is said that the population died naturally after one or two generations of survival. In many areas, the traces of sites left by residents in the past are now uninhabited, which should be considered from the perspective of scientific thinking. This is an obvious example of natural selection and natural elimination in terrain selection. It can also be inferred that the general environmental and climatic conditions have formed such a pattern after tens of thousands and thousands of years of natural elimination.
When you come out of those hundreds of sites, you will fully understand what is true Feng Shui: the superior conditions and space conducive to human survival are the true Feng Shui. There, no matter what the layout of geomantic omen is, no matter what viewpoint is used to regulate it, there is only one conclusion, one vote veto, and the specific conditions that are not suitable for human survival reject all the arguments of geomantic omen schools. When you come out from those hundreds of sites, you will be taught what Feng Shui is: convenience, practicality, safety, beauty and comfort are the last words of Feng Shui. There won't tell you: the door is upside down, the doors and windows are right, the bed is misplaced, the stove is in the wrong direction, or many other doubts. But I will tell you that it is inconvenient, impractical, unsafe and uncomfortable. It is really bad feng shui.
Decades ago, an old man once said: a small family, moving to a new place, can't lay the foundation for population continuation unless it meets good terrain and good geomantic omen. Looking back now, although this sentence is simple and to the point, it is rich in philosophy of life.
The ratio between rural and urban areas is different: 1. Compared with the urban terrain, the countryside is inferior terrain left by thousands of years of natural elimination and screening. 2. The countryside can only use the terrain correctly, and there is no adjustment ability for large-scale transformation.
There is nothing wrong with urban feng shui, only better. Cities and towns are different. Cities and towns have great climate and environment. It is the essence left by human life choices for tens of thousands of years: 1, which generally has the advantage of living space in a large range. Most places that can form the scale of cities and towns have gone through tens of thousands and thousands of years of natural history before they are finally settled. Typically, in the northwest, in addition to leaving ruins, there are still many places that cannot become towns and cities. There are no historical rumors now. What is the reason? Habitat, natural elimination and natural extinction, the population is completely extinct. 2. Modern towns, the strengthening of transformation has expanded the scale of towns. Without modernization, it can be said that all towns have only a dead end and no living eyes. If there is no modernization in cities and towns, the population carrying capacity will be at most one-third of what it is now. Therefore, the formation of the current urban pattern is the result of historical natural selection and modernization.
Since the emergence of human beings, human beings have chosen physical geography and habitable areas at the cost of their lives, and formed residential communities, such as cities. Cities are the wealth that human beings have bought with their lives. Where people can't live, the population has become extinct. If there is no special human transformation, living there again may still repeat the past stories. The experience of town formation is first of all natural selection, and then political, economic and humanistic intervention. With the participation of these factors, political geography, economic geography and human geography have been formed. The interaction of these geographical factors and the combination with natural geography are the fundamental reasons why modern towns have more advantages in geomantic omen.
Whether it is the most accurate and effective to reply to the big hexagrams in the mysterious sky, the golden section of the twenty-eight nights and the flying stars in the mysterious sky;
Kong Xuan hexagrams is a practical method to fix 64 hexagrams and 384 hexagrams on the compass according to a certain method. According to this practical method, there are 384 different positions of yin and yang rooms, that is, there are 384 different theoretical and practical methods. If combined with the specific environment and terrain, it is of course ever-changing, and the theoretical system should be huge and complete. Divide the amount of money in the 28-night line by 360 degrees, that is, there are 360 ways to use things, which is as flexible as the specific environment. But the question is:
1, all compasses are different (my experiment is: I choose ten disks for each experiment. After several comparisons, the maximum difference is ten degrees, generally two or three degrees). In the past, people generally used disks, and it was impossible to notice this difference. Now we have invented a square disk, which is more convenient and easier to use than a disk. Square disks can be used to test the difference of compasses. After inspection, compasses made in general are all poor (modern 100,000 precision azimuth meters have poor characteristics, not to mention ordinary manufacturing). I don't know what compass the ancients used, how to confirm, test and fix 384,360 degrees on the compass. Is the compass made in ancient times really superior to that made in modern times? If you can't read the compass correctly, how can you confirm its purpose?
2. Feng Shui is an empirical discipline. If there is no empirical case as the basis, it can only be considered as a science from theory to theory and from formula to formula, rather than a tested science. This kind of empirical discipline, according to an authoritative person in China, is that each practical method must find 500 cases and demonstrate them on the basis of realistic practical cases, which is considered as scientific logical reasoning. According to this argument, there are 384 theoretical methods of using divination in Kong Xuan and 360 methods of using divination in Elbasu. The author of divination must complete about 200,000 social investigation cases, while the author of Erbasu divination must complete 6.5438+0.8 million social investigation cases in order to be considered as scientific proof. In fact, it needs further thinking and argumentation by later scholars.
3. Jiang Dahong founded the method of flying stars in the sky, which is 2 16 games forward and 432 games * * *. According to this theory, Chiang Kai-shek will complete the textual research of 220,000 cases based on 500 domestic authoritative cases. Let's talk about Chiang Kai-shek himself, let alone whether there are any cases. What about Jiang Dahong, the founder of Kong Xuan Xing Fei? Does Chiang Kai-shek really have no Feng Shui? When Chiang Kai-shek was young, he was admitted to Jinshi and served as a county magistrate. If you can create your own school, won't it be used for feng shui layout adjustment! Chiang Kai-shek died childless and penniless, and others paid for the burial of his body.
The conclusions are as follows: Zhang's method of divination in the dark sky, Jiang Dahong's method of flying stars in the dark sky, and the method of dividing gold between mountains and Tibetan lines. These are all relatively complicated theoretical systems in the theory of feng shui regulating qi, and most people dare not set foot in them. Some people have been doing feng shui all their lives, and these methods of feng shui regulating qi can't be named, let alone applied in practice. Although the systems and methods of these theories are complex and profound, the integrity of the system itself is more complete than other systems. However, from the attitude of empirical science, we can only draw the conclusion that this theoretical system of feng shui and qi management has completed the formula and system in theory, and it is necessary to do further scientific research on the facts. If someone is willing to make efforts in this regard, find examples from reality and complete empirical consideration, it should be regarded as a worldwide initiative.
