Different Types Of Yoga Schools Involving Feng Shui

July 7, 2010   Filed under Weight Loss

Feng Shui has been around for thousands of years. Since that time, various trends of Feng Shui have developed. Although the basic principles remain the same, each one has a somewhat distinct approach for the subject:

Form School

* Centers predominantly with the curves of physical landscapes, their form, size and watercourse, as well as the connection between the actual physical formations as well as a dwelling.

* The four Directions regarding the compass are represented by the 4 celestial creatures; the Green Dragon (East), the Red Phoenix (South), the White Tiger (West) and also the Black Turtle (North).

Conventional Chinese Compass School

* Originated in China over 3000 years ago, with the first textual reference mentioned in 256BCE (Before Christian Era)

* Founded upon a methodical, formulaic way of Feng Shui that is thousands of years old.

* Career sector of the Eight Trigrams is always oriented to the magnetic North. .

The above methods are used by The Geomancer.

Black Hat Sect (BHS) Tantric Buddhist

An even more current school of thought, which is extensively practiced in the U.S.A. Created many years back by Thomas Lin Yun, it’s a hybrid of Tibetan Buddhism, Taoism as well as Feng Shui made easier for Western preferences. It has a large cult following.

With this school of Feng Shui, instead of making use of the traditional magnetic compass (Lo Pan) to determine directions, each home or room is evaluated by the placement of its doorway. BHS Feng Shui says that the primary door to every room faces the career sector. This could result in adjacent areas or homes possessing apparently contradictory directions.

* Popularized in America ever since 1986

* Founded on a much more spiritual way to Feng Shui

* Refers to the Eight Trigrams as being the ‘Ba Gua’

* Career sector regarding the Eight Trigrams is always oriented towards the principal door.

Intuitive Feng Shui

There’s a lot of talk regarding ‘intuitive feng shui’. However, Feng Shui, which includes its very own list of rules, can’t be considered more instinctive than either geography or even physics. Personal users may be a lot more perceptive as compared to others, but Feng Shui modifications have to be based on the rules and not simply a ’sensation’.

How to pick a specialist that is ideal for me personally?

Go with your intuition!

If what the practitioner suggests makes sense to you and you feel good about the changes he/she suggests, you have found a match up!

However, if putting a statue of Buddha close to your own entry way, putting red Avery labels on your own walls, hanging red-tasseled bamboo flutes above your entrances and putting a ‘green cylindrical object on your roof, to draw in nurturing wood energy’ are a little bit far from your personal decorating style - dismiss your specialist. (Settlement does not have to be encased in red envelopes either!)

Besides, REAL Feng Shui remedies utilize only the 5 components - Water, Earth, Fire, Metal and Wood, and never such things as mirrors, flutes, incense or prayers!
