What are the requirements for learning Feng Shui?

First of all, we should be soberly aware that Feng Shui is a knowledge invented by our ancestors in order to choose a suitable residence for us and improve the quality of our pursuit of living. It can be said that it is another great invention besides the four great inventions. It covers geography, landscape, astronomy, architecture, environmental science, natural ecology and so on. Guo Pu, recognized by later generations as the originator of geomantic omen, said in the first sentence of his book "Burial Book" that "the burrier hides and takes advantage of anger". It can be seen that Feng Shui takes "taking anger" as its main purpose. "Burial Book" went on to say: "The husband's yin and yang are the wind, rising to the clouds, falling to the rain and walking on the ground, which is called anger." What is said here is the qi of yin and yang, so what is yin and yang? "Burial Book" also said: "Eight winds are hidden outside, five elements are hidden inside, the sky is going down, the earth is going up, Yin and Yang are in harmony, and five soils are prepared, which is to change the fate with the magical power of a gentleman." He also said, "The earth is expensive to measure its position, and the jade is far and near." And so on, can only be summed up from these words: 1, you must have a certain culture, especially the understanding of classical Chinese. 2. Zhouyi has a foundation. The minimum requirement is to be familiar with China's basic theories, such as Yin-Yang and Five Elements, Tian Bagua and Gan Zhi. 3. I have hobbies and understanding in this field; 4. Under the guidance of masters, pay attention to "teachers who understand the truth" instead of "famous teachers"; 5. Believe in cause and effect and do more good deeds. Feng Shui is a dialectical materialist knowledge in ancient times. In addition to the objective environment, personal behavior can also cause good or bad luck. 6. It is necessary to respect the teacher, but also to boldly practice and verify, and comprehensively apply what you have learned in combination with the actual situation. You can list a few more, but with the above six main conditions, you can learn Feng Shui well. Secondly, is the longer you study, the higher your level will be? This can't be generalized. As the saying goes, "The Fake Fax in thousands of books", there are many books about Feng Shui in the book market, such as ancient biography, family biography, innovation, etc., and there are many books published by ancient and modern celebrities, which are difficult to distinguish between true and false. Even if you have the ability, time and money to read all the books, the level is not necessarily high, because if you can't tell the truth from the false, there will definitely be many contradictions and loopholes in the use. I have a classmate who has done three generations of geomantic omen, but by his generation, none of the whole family 100 people had made a fortune. He was very confused, so he took part in training and studied everywhere and read many books on geomantic omen. Up to now, he is not sure whether his feng shui is effective. Another fellow disciple has been helping people watch Feng Shui for more than 20 years. At the earliest time, the eight-courtyard method was used, and later the three-in-one water method was used, claiming to be Yang's. Later, he heard that Sanyuan Kong Xuan was very popular and spent a lot of money to learn Sanyuan Kong Xuan Feng Shui. It was not until the year before last that I came into contact with Yang Zhengzong's ancient water method that I sighed: "I used to do so much geomantic omen, some of which were well done and some were not well done, but I couldn't find the reason." Now I finally understand! " . I give two examples of other disciples, not to belittle a certain school of Feng Shui, but to illustrate a problem: the longer you learn Feng Shui, the higher your level will be! What's the use of learning Feng Shui for a long time when it can't be used in practice or has no effect? ! Thirdly, many people think that the more schools that study Feng Shui, the better, so that more schools can use it. As we all know, there are many factions that are contradictory or even antagonistic in application. I have no objection to everyone knowing the contents of various schools and factions. The problem is that you don't know what to study in depth and what to do in general until you have the ability to distinguish. Indiscriminate, rote learning, can you write down more than 100 Feng Shui schools? ! Even if it is written down, can it be used? ! Learning Feng Shui is the same as practicing other methods. At the beginning of learning, "seeing mountains is mountains and seeing water is water". In-depth study and more contact with several sects will become "seeing mountains is not mountains, and seeing water is not water." After a long period of self-restraint, self-enlightenment, or expert guidance, we finally "see mountains or mountains, water or water." And if you haven't learned anything about Feng Shui, do you save a lot of time by getting advice at the beginning of your study and getting constant guidance during your practice? Feng Shui is a science, definitely not superstitious, but it is definitely not mysterious, so mysterious that everyone thinks that no matter how hard they try, they can't learn it. As long as you have the conditions I mentioned above, you can master the basic theory and connotation of Feng Shui and learn it well.
