Kanyu was as famous as Confucian , Taoist , Legalist , etc., and played an important role in the historical development of our country. Kanyu (commonly known as Feng Shui) was originally a comprehensive knowledge for humans to seek a comfortable living environment, and it has a certain scientific nature. However, after thousands of years of vicissitudes, in the rolling torrent of history, it is inevitable that gold and sand will be mixed, and the essence and dross will coexist. The research and application of Feng Shui has been suppressed and banned several times. In the feudal era, there was first "burning books and entrapping Confucianism", and then "deposing hundreds of schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone". In addition, in the last century, "breaking the four old and establishing the four" During the "New" movement, many Feng Shui classics were burned to the ground, and reading Feng Shui was once considered an illegal activity. To this day, many people still think that Feng Shui practitioners are engaged in feudal superstitious activities and defraud people of money. Kanyu's academic path has always been bumpy and bumpy. Almost all of it has been marginalized, mystified, and magical. It is difficult to reach the elegant hall. There is no way to study the right and wrong, true and false of Feng Shui. Scholars and users resign themselves to fate and go with the flow.
In recent years, the culture of Chinese studies has been continuously promoted and praised, and Kanyu academics have made a comeback and become popular. When the Feng Shui industry is booming, the phenomenon of fake Feng Shui is very prominent. Feng Shui practitioners are mixed, good and bad, good and bad. There has never been an authoritative department to assess and verify, and there is no unified standard. As long as you can read a few pages of a book, those who can't read will be the same. Spend money to learn one and a half moves from the master, and then hold a compass . Boast, flatter yourself, brag randomly, you can become Feng Shui master , and you can start classes and teach apprentices... In ancient times, some masters sued the Feng Shui master to the yamen, and now some students are suing the Feng Shui trainer to the court... …Controversies continue, and all these strange phenomena are caused by false learning that distorts and misinterprets scriptures.
In the past, the educational level of rural Feng Shui masters was generally not high, and they had few access to Feng Shui books. Nowadays, some highly educated people join the Feng Shui industry, which is a good thing. However, they use the modern commercial model to manage Feng Shui, commercialize, market, and market the Feng Shui industry. They are eager for quick success and instant benefits, with the purpose of making money and the pursuit of interests. Maximization, unscrupulous means, and all kinds of tricks. The more fake the academic is, the more miraculous it is. What's more, some people integrate magic and witchcraft into Feng Shui, and a very few people set up Feng Shui scams... They were brought to justice and punished by law.
Kanyu should be separated from the academic category and used as a means of making a living. In ancient times, it was called "seeking food in the rivers and lakes" and "seeking food and clothing", which often aggravated the occurrence of Feng Shui chaos. These are completely contrary to Kan Yu's original intention, which not only accelerated the academic chaos of Feng Shui, but also ultimately led to the collapse of Feng Shui's image.
Kanyu scholarship is a precious treasure left to us by ancient sages. After generations of experience summarization, many Kanyu classics have been handed down. These works have an immeasurable role and are extremely important in improving our living environment. However, throughout the ages, the classics have been distorted, deleted, and deconstructed intentionally or unintentionally by people seeking fame and reputation, as well as ulterior motives. The classics have been completely changed beyond recognition, leaving future generations at a loss. What's even more outrageous is that some people know only a little about Kanyu, and in order to be new and famous, they combine their original wrong views and misunderstandings with several Feng Shui books to piece together and make random mistakes. "Books and theories" were fabricated and published in the form of internal materials. These books confuse the present, poison future generations, and cause endless harm.
Therefore, it can only be called "metaphysics", and some people even call it "pseudoscience". Indeed, there is great controversy in all aspects of Feng Shui scholarship, from theory to application, and it is still debated after thousands of years. Some misinterpret the scriptures, some are mystifying, some are sensationalizing... there are all kinds of things.
How did the Feng Shui community distort and misinterpret Kanyu scriptures? Let's take Li Boxao's "Poetry of Dividing Gold" as an example to explain.
Speaking of Song Dynasty Imperial Master Li Boxao, people naturally think of his most widely circulated "Poetry on Dividing Gold".
"First set Ziwu on the hill,
and then compete with the middle needle;
Even more three-seven and twenty-eight,
don't argue with Shi Shi."
(Note: "The middle needle will then compete with each other" in the poem. , there are also versions as "the first time the needle is small, the needle is small", "the needle is small", etc.)
How should we understand this poem? Keywords in the poem: "Ziwu, Zhongzhen, Sanqi, Erba". Not only are ordinary people who have never been exposed to Feng Shui knowledge confused and at a loss as to what to do, but many masters who specialize in Feng Shui are also confused and at a loss as to what to do.
According to rumors, a certain master in a certain hall has won the "secret interpretation" of the handbook "Interpretation of Li Boxao's Secret Poems":
First set Ziwu to the mountain hill,
Hugh will get it. Needle to contest.
more use Sanqi and 28,
points gold Dingxue prosperous Fangliang.
Note: First use the straight needle of the land (i.e. the meridian needle) to check the mountains and waters. Don’t pay attention to the middle needle. "Use more thirty-seven and twenty-eight", that is, the number of Lailong, sitting direction and water mouth should be combined with the three-seven and twenty-eight of Hetu Luoshu , the sum of five, the sum of ten and the sum of fifteen is the true yin and yang coitus. The true geographical secret of the combination of the dragon and the water is not the addition and subtraction of the three combinations of gold, the combined human disk of 28 and the sky disk of 37 gold. The ancient masters did not pass down secrets in their writings, but kept their secrets in their hearts and dictated them to wise men and women from generation to generation. This poem is proof of this.
Li Boxao, a disciple of Yang Jie Poverty. Another "Geography, Heaven and Opportunity Yuan" records:
First set the hillock of Ziwu,
Then use the needle to compete,
More three-seven and two-eight,
Don't talk nonsense with Shi Shi.
The most controversial phrase in history is the phrase "more thirty-seven and twenty-eight". This is the mystery of geography and qi. It has been forged the most by later generations. Great-grandfather and Master Li were both disciples of Yang Gong. This phrase cannot be solved without unique knowledge.
According to a teacher's explanation of the public version: The most controversial sentence in history is "more three-seven and two-eight". This is the mystery of geography and qi. It is the most forged by later generations and cannot be cracked without unique skills.
emphasized again that Li Boxao was a disciple of Duke Yang.
To sum up, the secret book has an explanation, but the public version cannot explain it. Why? Only God knows, maybe it has been passed down from generation to generation and has not been mentioned.
As for repeatedly emphasizing that "Li Boxao was a disciple of Yang Jie Poverty" and "great-grandfather and Master Li were both disciples of Duke Yang". It should be emphasized that the Kanyu technical knowledge that one has learned is inherited and genuine, not fake knowledge. I don't know why, but it always makes people feel like "there is no three hundred taels of silver here".
According to common sense, it can be inferred that Zhongzhen was created by Lai Gong of the Song Dynasty. Li Boxao mentioned the use of Zhongzhen in his poems, and Li Gong should have been born after Lai Gong. When Yang Gong died, Lai Gong was not yet born, let alone Li Gong later, so why did Li Gong become Yang Gong's personal disciple?
