好故事 福地福人居

一位非常有名的堪舆师（俗称风水先生），他曾受富商重金请托，寻找一块旺地以安葬富商父亲的遗骨，于是多方找寻，堪察。
一日，走过一段奇陡无比的山路，等到爬到山顶，早已上气不接下气，口干舌燥。适巧此处有人设一大茶缸，缸上写着“奉茶”二字，似乎料到行人至此，最需要的就是“茶”。但打开缸盖舀茶时，发现茶面上浮了一层稻壳，不管再怎么小心舀，茶杯内还是舀进数十粒稻壳。所以，喝茶时，必须吹开稻壳，慢慢地，小口小口地喝。
他一面喝，一面心中抱怨：“既然奉茶，为什么还要这样整人？我也来作弄一番。”问过路人，知道这缸茶是住山坳处一家破落户的老人所为。这位风水先生从高处往下望，山坳处在堪舆学上是个不好不坏的地方，但屋旁的平地，却是凶地。
风水先生因为刚才喝茶时的懊恼，来到这户人家，故意告诉老人家，隔壁的空地是块吉地，为了表达自己的谢意，愿意免费定桩看方位。这位奉茶的老人自是喜出望外，连声称谢，并且依着他定的方位，简简单单盖了间新草屋就搬进去了。
十几年后，风水先生想起这件事，想知道结果究竟如何，特地从老远的地方来看个究竟。奇怪！草屋不见了，取而代之的是一栋豪华的别墅。怀着重重疑问，风水先生按了门铃，开门的正是那位老人。老人看到他非常高兴，迎他进屋亲切招待。
不待风水先生询问，老人自己就滔滔不绝地说：“自从先生帮我看了这个吉地后，家中一切大小事都平安顺利。三个儿子出外经商，个个赚大钱，因有许多客人来访，孩子说旧房子太简陋，才改建成这栋别墅，可是我们仍不敢更改先生所定的方位，这一切都归功于先生的恩赐！”
临走前，风水先生把积存在心中十多年的疑惑说出来：“为什么要在茶水内放进稻壳呢？”老人笑呵呵地说：“一般人爬陡坡到达山顶时，都已气喘如牛，这时，若猛喝水一定会呛到，咳嗽不停。所以，我故意加入洗干净的稻壳，这样，喝水前，一定得吹个两三下，把稻壳吹开，如此缓冲一下再喝水，就不会被水呛到了！”风水先生至此才恍然大悟，口中自言自语地说：“原来如此！原来如此！”
从破落的草屋到豪华别墅，凶地却成为吉地，绝不是因为风水，而是“福人居福地”。 由于善的心念，而得到良善的回馈，这就是福报。福报是由修善而来，修善则积福。
所谓“祸福无门，唯人自召”，是祸，是福，端看种的是善或恶的因，绝没有天上掉下来的福报。

Hello, what kind of feng shui items will be good for doing business?


Thanks

Tian Lu ( some call PiXiu).

Always can find a pair at entrance of building or shops..

The Male one (Tian Lu) is to attract wealth.. the female one (Bi Xie) is to ward off bad stuff..

The male one can carry with you, the female one cannot.

This is really interesting. 1st time I've heard about this male and female pixiu. How to tell which is male and which is female?? :scratchhead:

WCW & Poppy,


Finally found my way to this thread. A little late, but nevertheless, arrived! :oops:

[peapot]

I heard you are suppose to talk to pixiu??!! Like talk to them before you go to work or something. Don’t know how true?

Found this interesting article about pixiu:


Pixiu or Pi Yao (Chinese: 貔貅; pinyin: pí xiū) originally known as Pi Xie (辟邪; to avoid evil spirits in Chinese) is a Chinese mythical hybrid creature considered to be a very powerful protector to practitioners of Feng Shui. It resembles a winged lion. Pixiu is an earth and sea variation, particularly an influential and auspicious creature for wealth. It is said to have a voracious appetite towards only gold and silver. Therefore traditionally to the Chinese, Pixiu has always been regarded as an auspicious creature that possessed mystical power capable of drawing Cai Qi (財氣 wealth) from all directions. Thus, it is helpful for those who are going through a bad year according to Chinese zodiac.

[Pen88n]

There are two different types of Pi Xiu. The difference is with their horns. The one with two horns is known as Pi Ya (possibly a corruption from bi xie (辟邪)) and the one with one horn is called Tian Lu (天祿) (Pi Chen).


Tian Lu (天祿) - is in charge of wealth. Displaying Tian Lu at home or in the office is said to prevent wealth from flowing away.
Pi Ya - wards off evil. It is also believed that Pi Ya has the ability of assisting anyone who is suffering from bad Feng Shui that is due to having offended the Grand Duke Jupiter (also called as Tai Sui (太岁)).
Pi Xiu is the ninth offspring of the dragon. Pi Xiu craves the smell of gold and silver and it likes to bring his master money in his mouth. Statues of this creature are often used to attract wealth in feng shui.

Yep, Augmum. I just suggested to WCW to start a topic on feng shui as she was talking about Dzi and we were discussing about pixiu earlier. Kind of interesting to know more about these right? To believe / adopt or not is not impt, but curious to learn
