What is the basis of Feng Shui?

Geomantic omen, originally a technique for observing geography on the spot, is called geomantic omen, which was called geomantic omen theory in ancient China. Its purpose is to choose the methods and principles of palace, village location and cemetery construction. The original intention is a knowledge of choosing the right place. Feng shui has a long history. In ancient times, geomantic omen prevailed in the cultural circle of China, and it was a very important factor in food, clothing, housing and transportation. Many documents related to Feng Shui have been preserved. According to documents, ancient geomantic omen was mostly used in the site selection of towns and villages, as well as the construction of palaces, and later developed to find funeral terrain.

If Feng Shui does not add environmental philosophy, environmental economics, architectural environmental landscape methods, ecological restoration technology and environmental ecological science, it will be a liar's paradise. Astronomy, geography and humanities are the three scientific pillars of Feng Shui in China. The unity of heaven and earth is the highest principle of China's geomantic omen. Ancient scientists in China looked up at astronomy and down at geography, and everything was near and everything was far away. After five thousand years of practice, research, induction and understanding, they formed the world-famous oriental science-China Feng Shui.

According to China's ancient scientific and technological theory, everything in the universe consists of three parts: qi, number and image. According to the viewpoint of modern science, they are: energy, information and situation or form. The three are inseparable and clearly defined. Qi, as an objective existence, can be assumed as energy according to modern scientific viewpoint. Number is the program or logic of everything in the universe, which can be assumed as information according to the viewpoint of modern science. Like the shape or changing trend of qi according to the number. In modern science, it can be summarized as follows: image is the situation that energy exists according to information program.

Everything in the universe has information, energy and their existence; Similarly, if there is energy, there must be information and situation, and if there is situation, there must be information as the instruction and energy as the basis. The existence of everything in the universe is the inseparability of qi, number and image, and it is real and concrete. Information "number" directs energy "Qi" to exist according to a certain situation, and energy "Qi" forms a certain existing situation "image" according to the instruction of "number", which is guided by information "number" and based on energy "Qi".

Number, qi and image are information, energy and posture, that is, the god of harmony between man and nature. Western philosophy is called the "noumenon" of all things in the universe, and it is also a function. Copula, the Book of Changes, said, "God is easy to die without Tao.". The ancient prose of "Fang", also called "Fang", is in this direction. Without square, there is no place, no place and no place. Essence, Qi and Spirit in the Book of Changes and Buddhist Scriptures. Confucius said: "essence is a thing, wandering souls are changing." A wandering soul is a god, a form.

In essence, the ancient sages in China were also called Xuan, Tao, Yuan, Yi and Shui. It is called sperm because human information comes from father's sperm and mother's egg. It is called Xuan because information is difficult to observe (Huai Xuan, Xuan is unpredictable, Xuan is indescribable); Praise is because information determines the only way for the biochemistry of all things in the universe; It is called yuan because information is at the beginning of the tangible universe; One is called one because one is the beginning of natural numbers, "Tao gives birth to one, two, three and everything" (embrace one, keep one, return to one, be true one and be too one); It is called water because life on earth originated from water.

According to China's ancient scientific and technological theory, "Li" is the principle of studying the change, change and invariability of numbers, qi and images. The principle is the form of energy existence recognized by human beings, referred to as conformation or energy field for short. Tangible and metaphysical. There are two research methods: one is deductive reasoning, which western science relies on; First, China and Oriental science and technology come from analogy and induction. Deductive reasoning is suitable for a limited mathematical range, while analogical induction is suitable for an infinite mathematical range. People know qi and number through images, which are different from "nothing" and "being". There is an objective existence, which can be perceived through human senses or with the help of instruments; On the other hand, it is useless. However, it is impossible to express its image in words. The objective existence is unchangeable or unchangeable. The Book of Changes says, "Meaning is endless, words are endless, and books are endless." The objective existence that can express its image in words is called specialization. Laozi said: "Tao can be Tao, not surprising;" The name can be named. It's very famous. "All specific Tao, name, qi and number are specialized.

Therefore, China's sages believed that matter was a relatively stable and specialized form of energy (qi). Modern high-energy physics proves that matter and energy are mutually transformed. At first, the universe only had energy, that is, gas, and no matter. The universe, including the solar system, is made of gas. The "Qi" that generated the universe is considered by modern science to originate from black holes, and China's ancient scientific and technological theory called it infinite inaction. "Qi can be called" ether "here, because matter is completely flowing at first, without hardness, discontinuity and termination, and cannot be divided into two. This is the thinnest object that people have ever imagined. "

The "ether" in natural science can only exist as an imaginary medium to transmit the interaction between matter and matter. It seems that "ether" and physical object are isolated, but Zhang Zai and Wang Fuzhi believe that "qi" and "shape" are mutually transformed. So their "Qi" is closer to the field in modern science than the ether.

Westerners exclaim, "My God!" , is "my god". China people shouted "My God!" . China's ancient ancestors did not artificially create a "god" like westerners. They think that the things that dominate heaven, earth, man and everything are heaven, air and field, the spirit of the universe or the weather, that is, the laws of the universe. From this, everything in the sky and underground is "earthly". There is the Jade Emperor in the sky and the Yan Emperor in the ground. Heaven and earth are integrated, holographic. That is, there is something in the sky, there must be something on the ground, and it is the same underground. The whole universe consists of energy (gas), information (numbers) and situation (images). Based on this understanding, it is not difficult to understand that Feng Shui in China originated from ancient astronomy, geography and humanities. China's geomantic omen, which integrates heaven, earth and people into a big system, has long been vilified and criticized. It is only in today's rapid development of science and technology that it is re-recognized and discovered.

In the long-term study of ancient astronomy, geography and anthropology, that is, the laws of the development and change of heaven, earth and man, China Feng Shui gradually formed a complete set of theories about the laws of the universe, and on the basis of this theory, it summarized the characteristics of the universe into three aspects: the holographic nature of the universe; Helix of the universe; Yin and Yang of the universe.

China's three principles of geomantic omen: the principle of integration of heaven and earth; Principle of balance between yin and yang; The principle of mutual generation and mutual resistance of the five elements.
