Bastardizing XieZi...

"The manner XieZi changes,
What is construe as Yin is no longer Yin.
What is construe as Yang is no longer Yang.
Yin becomes Yang,
Yang bcomes Yin.
Mountain is not construe as Mountain,
Water is not construe as Water.
Mountain can be taken as Water,
Water can be taken as Mountain.
The formlessness of XieZi,
Yet it takes form and otherwise - Translated from a passage of Zeng ZiNan's Book"

Perhaps these cryptic verses contains the secret of XieZi, yet no one would know its secret other then the estate of the late Grandmaster Zeng ZiNan. For decades the notion of XieZi and the so called, MingShi PanXiang has been adored almost as a crown jewel among the Chinese Metaphysics community but yet, its meanings are kept out of reach from the outsider. The best is we would all be guessing.

The late Zeng himself has written for the facts that he was the first one who uses the term XieZi. When he applied his SanYuan DiLi method and sees results within a short stipulated period, he managed to acquired a huge retinue of clientele in Taiwan and what seen to be a term XieZi becomes a brand by itself. Not long after, many claims knowledge about XieZi. This phenomenal popularity of XieZi has moved him to acclaim that he has NEVER taught XieZi to anyone outside his family. Then as the epic unfolds, we also witnessed his rival from HongKong to be as good as the late Zeng's XieZi, of whom young guns liked Mr. Joy and Mr. Sole paid hefty sums to be his indoor disciples.

Recently, there has been a hype about XieZi again. The "Bang-Cock" Fighting SanSha School has an expose on the late Zeng's grave linking to the fact that Fighting SanSha is part and parcel of XieZi in a classroom environment. Another soon to be master who practices FengShui with black magic, brought a retinue of students to the land of FengShui cult, to measure millionaire tombs and concluded that he professed the knowledge of XieZi which he is not willing to depart. Next, someone emailed me and suggested that all these masters who claimed to profess XieZi actually were taught by the lineage holder who actually taught the late Zeng ZiNan in the first instance! Wow! there is actually a lineage holder for XieZi Fa? Want to know who?

This informer is by the name of Mr. L. He also has a website that is linked to Google Adsense. So, don't bother to ask me. You may bump into it when you google.

As informed, there is at least one more guy, Mr. X who knew about this XieZi. According to Mr L, the late Master Zeng learn his XieZi from Prof Lee and due to his selfishness Prof Lee decided to pass down to another Master in seclusion as a temple keeper, this temple keeper then pass to another of his student whom happened to learn from the late Chen BeiSheng. Mr. X is not publicly taking in students, so we cannot do a reverse engineering. The "Bang-Cock" Master was Mr. L's coursemates. So, indirectly speaking, Mr L is the grand-student of the secluded temple keeper. Wow, very exhausting merry go round!

According to Mr L also, The "Bang-Cock" Master, soon to be master and FL knew very little about XieZi. They can con the English community but not Mr L. As for the "Bang-Cock" Master, he learnt his DaGua from "Peter Pan" whom actually used Wang Xiang Ann book to teach his students. "Bang-Cock" Master fall out with him due to some conflict of interest. The so called DaGua method they are using is incorrect. 

Mr. L curious as how much the late Zeng used XieZi in his practice for Yin house judging from his own grave. According to Mr L again as he had witnessed in many of Mr. X's cases in Taiwan involving XieZi.  I also remember reading from my favourite blog about Qian Mountain, Qian Facing, Water flows Qian. This method is called ChowYao HuanXiang. My question is how to ChowYao HuanXiang when you don't know MingShi PanXiang? So according to Mr. L, ChowYao Huanxiang is not practical for Yang houses, but from one of the graves done by the late Zeng, he used the knowledge of ChowYao HuanXiang as explained by his master. He shown Mr L the correct method of ChowYao HuanXiang. He used this method in his office, and the results is more than satisfactory, again the caveat is that the forms must be right. That again, no details were given.

As for the Kiasu-land, it was a strange country. There are too many practioners with too many wishes to fulfill. We heard customers of XieZi, who is not satisfy by the results of XieZi go for a second opinion. What had gone so freaking wrong with this method? Isn't it supposed to be "super-strings" efficiency on par with the 11th dimensions of the theoritical physics?

In summary, we can say all the masters out there knew XieZi! What sort of XieZi, I really don't know. Perhaps you can tell. The term or the brand XieZi has been bastardized beyond recognition. We had not heard them using this term before. First, they are so proud of their BaZhai and Flying Star. Then they denounce it for LiuFa and DaGua. Now, they chant XieZi as their forte, ZhenShan ZiBao? You want to believe it????
