Feng
Shui (pronounced "phung
schway" and meaning literally
"wind water") is part of an ancient Chinese philosophy of
nature. Feng
shui is often identified as a
form of geomancy, divination by geographic features, but it
is mainly concerned with understanding the relationships
between nature and ourselves so that we might live in
harmony within our environment.
Feng shui
is related to the very sensible notion that living with
rather than against nature benefits both humans and our
environment. It is also related to the equally sensible
notion that our lives are deeply affected by our physical
and emotional environs. If we surround ourselves with
symbols of death, contempt and indifference toward life and
nature, with noise and various forms of ugliness, we will
corrupt ourselves in the process. If we surround ourselves
with beauty, gentleness, kindness, sympathy, music and
various expressions of the sweetness of life, we enable
ourselves as well as our environment. |
