Are there any dragons involved?
Is it really about wind and water?
How do you know that the information
that you have learned are correct?
Why is the study of Feng Shui such a secretive
subject?
It is very easy to test the knowledge
of Bazi or any astrology theories. Through case studies
we would be able to tell ourselves if we really know what we are talking about.
Even though there are many who would go around in circles to justify their own
knowledge. One of the main reasons for that is the amount of time and money
spend on the search for this illusive knowledge. The older and more establish
they are, the worst they will be in accepting the real
knowledge.
When dealing with Feng
Shui, it is even worst. It is very difficult to test
the workability. As a result, in my opinion there are really very few who knows
what they are talking about. If we look at what is available in the market, what
are the theories being taught; I wonder why would people
still be looking for Feng Shui
Masters to audit their houses or offices.
It is very interesting to note that
it is actually written in the classics regarding this matter and why the real Feng Shui knowledge are not to be
passed down to just any one.
