We witnessed the passing of Grand Master Zheng Zi Nan of the San Yuan School at a ripe age of 100 years as he has so predicted. A certain amount of his famous ‘Xie Zi Fa’ would probably be lost with him. We also mourned the loss of well known Miao Pai Grand Master Chen Pei Sheng recently. We would also expect his most respected experiences in Xuan Kong Da Gua to be lost in transition. While GM Zheng has the procedures of his burial clearly stated in writings to his followers, not much can be said of GM Chen. We hope for their returns to guide the Feng Shui world in mind and spirit. We salute their greatness.
I will be writing more articles and hope this will help enrich your knowledge. Should you have any specific questions and topics that you would like me to shed some light, please forward them to me. I will research them further to see if I can paint a clearer picture for all to understand. Feng Shui is so commercialised now that every practitioner carries the title of Master. Only if these Masters understand a little more of the Luo Pan other than the 24 mountains ring.
I have done away with the forum as it is being invaded by non students. Students can still forward their homework and questions to me for verifications. Bazi is a never ending learning process and please keep on working on it.
I want to do away with many of the Feng Shui theories that sound good only in books. All theories must be practical. I will express them in my website. When you embark on a Feng Shui journey, make sure what you learn can be applied immediately especially when they are stand alone theories. There is no point in doing an audit without any results. Results are part of the applications. I will be also in search of a lineage to share with all, minus the politics. Lineage has such closely guarded traditions and vows. It is one uphill task.
Geshe Zopa, the anointed spiritual leader of LDC in KL has gone into retreat after tendering his resignation. It was said in the chat box of Geshe Zopa blog that the demand of his resignation came from the current Executive Committee. Did the ExCo first seek the permission of the office of the Dalai Lama for the demand? If not, this is the insult and non respect for the Holy Authority who anointed him. The finger pointing, banging of tables and shouting are so unlike the nature of worshippers. Mixing feng shui with politics and worship reveals the hidden intention of the pretentious.
Like the recent sagas of NKF, Youth Challenge and Ren Ci, it is sad that places of worship and charitable organisations with the best of intentions can never be freed from the clutches of politics, power and money.
I register my support for his return and vision.

Vin, Good to see you’re back in action again!
Let me be the first to pen down my comments on your maiden post here :)
I’m in absolute agreement with you that one should not use places of worship or charitable organizations for one’s own power, personal agenda or material gains.
Human have different characters and abilities. Use these characters and abilities wisely and bloom beautiful flowers individually, not by putting one down to look good.
I remembered many years ago, as a little girl accompanying mum for her Buddhism studies; to attain Buddhahood in oneself is never an easy and smooth journey. When one think it’s almost there, greed and power are knocking at the front door… like Maslow hierarcy of Needs, one will fall down to the ego path again, and the circle continues again, again and again…
Buddha's real Dharma is for all people to attain Buddha Wisdom.
Thus I voice my support for GTZ to return to LDC to continue his mission and vision on sharing his wisdom, knowledge and teachings.
The ‘road blockers /gate keepers’ are just obstacles, obstacles in the path to your attainment of Buddhahood.
In reflection of your article and the current event of LDC, I had penned my blog on the same subject and sentiments. Feel free to visit yifengshui.blogspot.com for the support of Geshela's return.
Hi Candice and David,
Thank you for the support. I hope there will be less politics in places of worship. To make use of people of God in the Name of God reflects the low integrity of these other people. I wonder if they have any in the first place.
