Is the backer map a picture or a painting?
The philosophical principle of "relying on mountains" comes from Fan Zhen, a philosopher in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, who expounded on "the possession of form and spirit" in his book "On the Extinction of God".
Modern physics has confirmed that there is a certain relationship and interaction between matter and matter in this natural world where we human beings live. Human beings live in this interactive material space and will naturally be influenced by it. In the course of historical development, some discourses in the western world on the relationship between human beings and nature, such as: "If we lose the mid-levels as a support, 8% of the rich areas in the world will disappear", also provide another evidence for "relying on mountains". This statement coincides with our concept of Feng Shui. The naturally formed human living environment, whether it is oriental or western, naturally conforms to the standard of "looking forward to the future and relying on it"
according to the traditional sinology, everything can belong to the concept of five elements. From this, we can know that the natural landscape is also divided according to the five elements. In the five elements theory, the north belongs to water, the east belongs to wood, the south belongs to fire, the west belongs to gold, and the center belongs to earth. The shape and basic trend of mountains in all directions also exist according to the five elements and their shapes. The north belongs to water, and the mountains are water-shaped mountains; The east is wood, and the mountain is wood-shaped; The south belongs to fire, and the mountain is flame-shaped; The west belongs to gold, and the mountains are gold-shaped and steamed bread-shaped; The center belongs to the soil, and the mountains are like mounds.
Yang Junsong, a geomantic master of the North School, described the five elements of mountains in the most detailed way:
The water-shaped mountains seem to come and go in a series of surprises, and the shape and spirit are like raw eels. Soft words are its true meaning. Another example is the goose neck spring as its main vein, such as silk miscellaneous lines. The limbs are like dragonflies, and the mountains are flying in 3355, like butterflies. The bones of this mountain are few stars and few peaks, and the stars and peaks rise slightly, which naturally connect the left and right. It is affectionate. If there is no peak, it is just like an eel, which is sloppy and ruthless.
a fire-shaped mountain peak moves like a flame, and the peak of the mountain is steep. If the umbrella breaks like a plow, it will crack and break. Although the flame is red and high, black smoke will be thick. The three peaks of the flame must stand tall like a character, and the two peaks on both shoulders are divided into two guards, among which the low fat one is the female peak and the high barren one is the male peak, which is the real fire-shaped mountain.
the wood-shaped mountain is like a bamboo shoot with a peak, with a round and straight tip, which is the original temperament of the wood-shaped mountain. If it is a low peak, it is as small as a pen inserted into a tower, and as flat as a silkworm lying on the top. The rock on the inclined side of the wooden mountain falls into the air, and it must not be big and small, and it must not collapse in the air. Although the air is exquisite, it belongs to rotten wood after all.
the golden mountain is like a drum, like a kettle. The foot of the mountain is like a melon. There is a small peak in front of the melon, as big as a crab and as small as a spider. The foot of the golden mountain is like a sword awn, and the small peaks are like continuous knots. The toes are like halberds, and the cloth is returned around to determine its authority.
Tuxing Mountain is mainly dignified and steady. Not pointed and not round is the foundation. If it is a mountain in the shape of a mountain, it looks like a tooth, and there are not many branches and leaves, and there are few Guan Xia. There are one or two guards on both sides of the low peak at the foot, such as driving sheep. Or support for the continuous festival, and the peak of the continuous festival is mostly double peaks. If there is a continuous knot, there must be a sword escort after the continuous knot, and then there will be a round hill after the sword is sent, stretching like a shuttle, and if there are traces of spider silk.
Wang Yongjie has been engaged in the research of traditional natural landscape geomantic science for nearly forty years, and his footprints have spread all over the north and south of the river. What he has seen and heard confirms that his views on the five elements of natural landscape are in line with the geomantic theory. Through cracking and refining, Mr. Wang combined the five elements of nature with landscape painting and calligraphy, forming a prominent feature of the combination of five elements and several elements. This is the theoretical basis of the geomantic theory of "Relying on the Mountain".
People in real life have different personalities, different occupations, different social status and different forms of presentation due to different fates, so everyone's needs for the external humanistic environment are also different. Mr. Wang Yongjie explored the experience of studying the numerology of the Five Elements for decades. According to the needs of different people, according to the theory he learned and a lot of practical experience, he conceived different absolutely targeted practical landscape paintings and calligraphy works-"Backing Mountain Map".
all the five elements of the mountain in the "mountain map" are too broken. Don't hold on to yourself, be ruthless with yourself. Besides the main vein, the side branches in the "Backing Mountain Map" are four animals that fall short. The four beasts should review each other before they can meet in Long Mai. The gathering is to review the amorous feelings, so as to have the function of gathering gas. The veins are undulating, the hills are suddenly big, and the peaks are bound to be small. Continuous places are endless, like thousands of children and grandchildren. The ups and downs of the mountains are peeling and changing, and they are touching and affectionate. Natural mountains and mountains all display their attributes of five elements with their unique shapes, so as to show the real functional attributes of landscape painting abroad.
In recent years, some people who don't understand the principle of "relying on mountains" and operate some ordinary landscape paintings as "relying on mountains" have done great harm. The "Backing Mountain Map" invented by Mr. Wang Yongjie has rich principles. Integrating the principles of Kanyu, Yi-ology, Philosophy and Numerology, etc., it is difficult to become a "backing map" without the in-depth discussion of many theories. "Backing Mountain Map" has been registered in the State Administration for Industry and Commerce. All the works that don't have the big seal of "Mountain Map" and "Mountain Son" and "Xuanhui" in the market belong to landscape painting, not "Mountain Map".
