Talk Cock And Sing XKDG Song

There is a new hype in town, where most XKDG masters are speaking in code, the DaVinci's style! They throw you a chart or a mind boggling diagram and asked you to guess. Next, they invite you for their courses, costs at USD10,000.00, as I was informed from an academy in town.

In a nutshell there seems to be  many unfounded interpretations namely: -

1. The door tilting school
2. The hole searching school
3. The star gazer school
4. The YiJing type school
5. The Golden Shoe Line school
6. The All in one school
7. The Fighting SanSha school

Seriously, none of these schools actually documented their case studies and consistently validate their results based on these approaches. Sometimes work, sometimes don't, is just another way of saying, I guess it may works.

Perhaps, one may seriously need to ask, what is the basis of XKDG? YiJing or IChing? ZhongTian? or the extinct GuiChang?

If the GuaXiang is good enough, why made it obsolete with JiaZi, GuaQi, GuaYun and so forth? 

Perhaps, it is just another hoax?

Another Tilted Door of XuanKong DaGua

Someone actually introduced us to the owner of this shop who has engaged a XuanKong DaGua door tilting method grandmaster to hasten auspiciousness. Close to a year, nothing happens. Maybe the BaZi has an issue overriding XKDG. We don't know.

A close inspection revealed that the door is tilted the other way round in respect of the incoming Qi mouth. Strange? Supposed XKDG is part of SanYuan, why wouldn't the fundamental of SanYuan principles be applied? Similarly so, the shop is located facing the higher land with its back towards the lower land. Something liked, backward riding the dragon, some may called.

This is not something new and it will not be the last one. Wonder what is wrong with XKDG or rather in its application.

The common understanding of XKDG in an nutshell theory is: -

To achieve what is known as singular pure Hexagram or YiGua ChunQing. To do this, one has to match the Heaven, Earth and Human DaGua. So, considering such 2 approaches can be achieved: -

1.    Dragon matching water
2.    Sitting matching facing

Here is the interesting part. Dragon and water is presumably fixed, because the environment cannot be changed to suit the building. In the host and guest principles, the environment becomes the host, the building is the guest. So, the building has to suit the environment. We believed this is where the applications has gone so wrong as Dragon matching Water is referring to the main source of Qi in a greater TaiQi. These set the first principle whereas the other sets the application. Here, the question is where is the greater TaiQi, the greater BaGua? How do we measure it?

So, what is left is sitting matching facing. One peculiar school of thought suggested that sitting and facing refers to the location (sitting) and facing of the main door. The main entrance door becomes the point of reference. Why not the sitting and facing of the building instead? What governs the smaller TaiQi instead? What is meant by the Threshold of Yin and Yang? 

Again, the understanding becomes crucial. If we were to take the building as a containment and say the main door is where the Qi comes in matching heaven, earth and man, we have again make a wrong assumption, as Qi comes in all directions and not one direction. So, why do we tilt the door instead of some other things liked, the roof, the window, the stove, the bed and so forth?

What if XKDG is just another hoax? 

Egg Sucking Jade Belt

Strange, wonder what is the different between a Sickle and a Jade Belt formation? That is why there are some suck-eggs practitioners who claimed that all cul-de-sacs are just bad FengShui and yet some claimed island site with roads wrapping around are liked the jade belt around the officer's waist. Very novel indeed.

These brought to mind 2 distinctive developments, namely the KL Sentral at the upper stream and Mid Valley at the lower stream. What makes Mid Valley stands apart from KL Sentral although in terms of logistic, KL Sentral stood to be superior then Mid Valley?

Perhaps the answer is in the Jade Belt Formations or otherwise, egg sucking formation?

The Typical Wealthy Chinaman's House

Lately was invited to audit a typical wealthy China man's House. It was designed with the San Fen San He principles in mind. It has an internal court opens up to the sky. Where would the center of the house be? The internal courts will open up to another 3 sided entrances with three different doors. How would a Flying Star chart be? The more challenging piece is the water flow which are so diverse and subtle. So, is the location of the water via its aquarium in relation to the house proper. 

The external pose some physically challenging Sha with the green dragon holdings sword, as above the telecommunication structure with water falls features at the bottom, located at the GenYin double mountain. House sitting Fire Structure with incoming at Yin and water exiting at Wu. That is significantly enough to tell the story as to why this wealthy China man has unresolved issues, the moment he shifted to this very new house, inclusive of the demised of his beloved mother, in the month of Xu.

On a XuanKong level, although it is still considered a new house, there are apparently structural cracks at the skylights directly at the main door at the Qian sector. What does it means? If divination is done at the month of Chen, what does it portends?

We will reserve more for the Private Blog, meanwhile as pointer, all of the sudden, we were told that XuanKong FlyingStar, of which the method expounded by Shen JuReng is a flawed methodology based on the following conclusions: -

1. Master Sheng JuReng pedigree is questionable as he is not from an authentic XuanKong Lineage.
2. It is only based on Master Sheng's own interpretations.
3. Sheng's method only based on the sitting and facing, thus 2 dimensional.
4. In order for such to work, it must conforms to the land form.
5. Sheng's hypothesis only works within the 4 structures.

Even with these above hypothesis, it is cumbersome to even superimposed the FlyingStar chart into the house plan of a huge mansion with multiple rooms and doors. Thus, it is a shame to learn that in the West, such methodology is still taught as a valid FengShui methodology as one dilemma is when we apply FlyingStar as an application, we forgot that, as with all valid system of FengShui, it has a body as principle to start with, but where is the body for FlyingStar?

Dragon Illusive Veins Of The Mountain

Walking the mountain with both eyes open, yet we still see nothing. Could this be the phenomenon of the Third Class master running around the mountain and yet see nothing?

How does a dragon vein looks like when one is near to it? How would a tomb be located closer to the vein or away from the vein? How close is close and how far is far? Which level of the vein would one be tapping into? Why is it such that there are sometimes trees arraying or cluster near the veins? Should the tomb be avoiding these cluster of trees?

A mouthful of considerations. We just leave this picture of a theoretical vein versus the real vein on site. Can you still not see the VEIN? 

Punching Chest Bright Hall

Another good things about doing assignment during the QingMing especially Yin FengShui is the opportunity to visit different cemetery with different landforms. Even within the same cemetery, the landforms differ from side to side. Again, we must look beyond some FengShui misconception liked does a TangLang mountain has to look liked a cucumber from all sides? 

Again, that also boils down to what aspect of formula one wants to use given a certain land formations as landforms don't lie, but calculation may not tell you the truth. A little bit tricky, thus one's understanding of the underlying principles of Shu, Qi and Xiang becomes paramount important.

It is also very difficult to match some fancy diagram of, let say, a punching chest Sha  ( shown as a diagram as above ) with a real life observation ( shown in this picture ). Does it means to say, every locations of graves facing such a Sha will be of the same fate? What is the use of a Sha (embrace)? How would a Sha (embrace) emits Killing Forces (Sha Qi)? Why is some graves prosper given such a scenario and location, contrary to the perceived expectations? Has it got to do with Figthing SanSha of the XuanKong DaGua land formation? 

Some times it is a little fancy following some commercial master for sight seeing, basking under the hot tropical sun, with both eyes open but yet see nothing. It is also this very hot sun that the veins are revealed at different time as contrary to the text book, it doesn't look like a line dropping from its apex, but slight sentimental humps that is very easily to be camouflaged by trees. 

Sometimes, we also wonders, why Yin FengShui master are all males. Yet we see female taking group photographs by sitting on top of the grave, where the Chinese is most fear of as such a taboo for even the living, less said about the dead. Think about it, would you allow yourself to be crossed over by a female? Where is the Chinese most revered notion of morality (Li), when her master allowed such to be carried out under his guidance? Very strange and unless such is from a Whore FengShui master's perspective.

Yin FengShui is a very interesting and intricate subject on its own accord. It is also a very good platform to lay one's foundation in FengShui minus the bells and jingles, off course.

So, liked the saying, where is my cheese, this would be where is my bright hall? Want to know more, click HERE.

QingMing Fables

清明時節雨紛紛

路上行人欲斷魂

借問酒家何處有 

牧童遙指杏花村

Translation (source:Wikipedia):

A drizzling rain falls like tears on Bright And Clear,

The mourner's heart is breaking on his way.

Where can a winehouse be found to drown his sadness?

A cowherd points to Almond Flower (Xing Hua) Village in the distance.   

A notable poem about QingMing by a poet who is half drunken by his own sorrow. Similarly so, QingMing has been quite a hactic weeks for us, we too are drunken by what we had witnessed . from visiting of one cemetery site to another, among others for Yin FengShui assignment.  Again, such a visit is extremely enlightening, when one sees many do and don't(s). We also sympathized with those people whose ancestor's graveyards had been mutilated by the greed of commercialized FengShui master who, we termed them as Whore FengShui masters. FengShui master with no principles and going for the sake of money to please their masters are whore FengShui masters. Similarly so are their clientele. 

Along the way we also pity the innocence people who carried out major repaired work on their ancestor's graves without knowing when to do it, while just the right moment, the 5 yellow is arriving at the sitting and at the center. West Malaysia consists of 13 states, inclusive of the Federal Territory. By virtue of the annual star, there will always be a state or location, where the annual 5 will reside. Will the annual 5 has any impact to the grave when the earth is moved or dig?
