We were in a vegetarian restaurant in view of the courtesy of hosting one of our masters who is a lifelong vegetarian. While having a conversation about life, destiny and the art of BaZi reading, we were joined by another group of vegetarian. Well, as the place was really full, we wouldn’t mind sharing the same table with them. From the look of their attire, we knew this group of people is from a Buddhist Temple establishment. Our conversation was so interesting that it lends an ear to these group of people that they begin to query the topic of our discussion.
One lady could not help but to chirp in to ask, “… May I ask if all of you are Vegetarian?”
We replied, “Not really, only our master is.”
“Huh!...”, she responded. “… You know, we vegetarian should not practice the art of Destiny reading. This is against the will of Heaven. Heaven’s Will should not be disclosed. It is a Sin. How could your venerable master advocate the art of Destiny reading?”, she continued.
We start to look at each other and our master responded, “Well said. May I ask how big Heaven is?”
She replied, “Very big, immeasurable…”
The master continues, “If such is the greatness of Heaven, would you think the Will of Heaven would so easily to be leaked?”
“Absolutely not”, she affirmed.
“So, how could such an Art of Destiny reading be viewed as disclosing the Will of Heaven?”, the master stressed.
“Errr…”, she voiced with dilemma.
“Madam, this is an art of our ancestry. It is a tool in which Heaven wish to speak to us. In itself, it is the Heaven’s will. Only the noble are able to unlock its massages to inform others of its messages. So, that the people are informed of the next cause of action. Not the contrary of superstitions.”, the master explained.
“Do you think not that if Heaven do not want you to know, you could see what is contained within the Destiny chart?”, the master continued.
“Similarly so as when we eat as a vegetarian, do we eat with the mouth or with our Heart?”,the master asked?
Silent…..
“Thank you master, we noted your advice”, she replied as though she has just waked up from her dream and all of us just have a good laugh.
So, to all my friends out there who are still struggling of reading the BaZi chart, asked yourself, how much had you toiled in understanding of what Heaven wants from us, as mortal, rather then what do you want to know from Heaven's Will. If such fundamental understanding are not clear, what use is YiJing, Mountain and Facing, PiYao, water dragon and a whole lots more?
It is just a waste of time...
