About the nature of Feng Shui: Is Feng Shui a science? The answer to this question should be no. Many current Feng Shui arguments cannot withstand scientific testing. Is it just superstition? The answer should also be no. It is true that there are elements of superstition mixed in Feng Shui, but superstition is not the core of the overall useful content of Feng Shui. What is superstition? Superstition is ignorance and ignorance about some things, but blind obedience; or blind affirmation or blind denial of illusory things. So what kind of knowledge is Feng Shui? The answer is: Feng Shui is neither science nor superstition. It is empirical science or empirical science, which is some immature empirical talk. Feng Shui is a method that uses certain characteristics or characteristics of life and terrain that have been experienced, and uses specific Feng Shui methods through terrain and time to deduce the use, changes, trends, and trends of other terrains. This knowledge needs to be further strengthened, deepened, scientifically systematized, and further studied.
Feng Shui and superstition are two completely different things. Feng Shui, like mathematics, has certain formula calculations and deduction methods. Anyone who is familiar with and masters the deduction methods can interpret and apply them. Whether the deduction is right or wrong, deep or shallow depends entirely on the level of Feng Shui research and the skills and proficiency of the deduction person. There is no mystery; there is no need to "call it out" with superstition. The introduction of superstition into Feng Shui, especially the introduction of the superstition "Hu Nong", has its historical reasons and the limitations of Feng Shui research. To the extent that superstition is mixed into Feng Shui, it limits the development of Feng Shui.
What is Feng Shui? It’s more beneficial to think more scientifically.
The essence of Feng Shui expressed in modern Chinese is: creating and choosing better living conditions and survival advantages; rational use of natural objective conditions and laws; meeting necessity, reasonable, comfortable, practical, convenient, beneficial, The key points of safety, beauty, and hygiene; conforming to mechanics and scientific principles; conforming to common sense and logic are good Feng Shui. There is no such thing as a mysterious and puzzling Feng Shui!
The essence of ancient Feng Shui is to correctly choose superior natural conditions to adapt to human survival. Places that are not suitable for humans. My conclusion from the hundreds of ruins I have seen is that humans have been completely eliminated there and the population has not continued to this day. Feng Shui emphasizes benefits, convenience, practicality, and is better suited for human survival and life. Using traditional Feng Shui theory to enter the field of modern architectural design may be like a blind man trying to figure out the elephant, but using modern high-tech design theory to enter the field of Feng Shui should be easy.
Use the standards of necessity, reasonableness, comfort, practicality, convenience, benefit, safety, beauty, and hygiene to evaluate and consider various things respectively. What is necessary, reasonable, comfortable, practical, convenient, beneficial, safe, beautiful, and hygienic is good Feng Shui. On the contrary, bad things will happen, which is bad feng shui. No matter how good Feng Shui is, if it cannot be said to be necessary, reasonable, comfortable, practical, convenient, beneficial, safe, beautiful, hygienic and other conditions, it can only be regarded as a weird theory. No matter how good the Feng Shui is, the core must be suitable for human habitation and life activities.
Must: means that these structures and settings must be necessary, indispensable, not optional, yes, of little substantive significance, and nothing that has no impact on normal life. These structures and settings are necessary for human beings and serve human beings. It would also not be appropriate to change the position of these settings, which is to say, it must be this way. Practical: For example, windows can only be placed wherever they are, and if the lighting effect is good, it means good Feng Shui. If the lighting effect is poor in other locations, or there is no lighting at all, it is actually bad Feng Shui. Convenience: For example, door entry and exit should be smooth and convenient. If it is inconvenient, even if it complies with the requirements of the Feng Shui direction and Qi regulations, it will only increase the burden of entry and exit activities, which is actually bad Feng Shui. Safety: Although it is good to build a pool around the house, there are many cases where children fall into it. As long as a child falls in and is in danger, the Feng Shui of the entire house will be negative and discredited for several years.
About "creating and choosing better living conditions and survival advantages". In ancient times, the focus was on making correct and reasonable choices and utilizing superior natural conditions. With the advancement of science and technology in modern society, it has become possible to create a better living space. The efforts of modern transformation have laid a good foundation for human living conditions, thus possessing the ability to create Superior Feng Shui possible. Man-made Feng Shui is better than natural Feng Shui because man-made Feng Shui contains a lot of technological factors, making it more suitable for humans. It will definitely be beneficial to think more from the direction of science and common sense.
