Lao Yuanji's Geomantic View

When Lao Yuanji spread Feng Xue, he regarded it as the carrier of traditional culture and took culture as the center. Therefore, in the study of Feng Xue, Lao Yuanji's expert group attached great importance to the study of historical materials. Lao Yuanji's geomantic omen is extracted from a large number of historical documents. Throughout history, it can be verified that the person who defined the word "Feng Shui" was Guo Pu of Jin Dynasty. There is a cloud in his famous book "Burial Book": "Buried people are angry, and the gas is scattered by the wind. The boundary water stopped, and the ancients gathered it to make it last forever, so it was called Feng Shui. The method of feng shui is to get water first and then hide the wind. It can be seen that Feng Shui is a science. At the beginning of the formation of geomantic omen, its core goal was to find a place for people to live and bury. In the process of this choice, we mainly consider the changing laws of the environment and the universe, and through this choice, we can realize the pursuit of good and avoid evil in the spiritual pursuit.

In nature, wind and water can flow. In the word "feng shui", Lao Yuanji thinks that wind refers to vitality and field energy, while water is more dynamic and dominates flow and change. Geomantic omen is actually a philosophical theory in ancient China to study the laws of the environment and the universe. Lao Yuanji thinks that the origin of geomantic omen can be traced back to Shang and Zhou Dynasties by studying historical materials.

Generally speaking, China traditional geomantic omen should follow three principles in the survey, namely, the integration of heaven and earth, the balance of yin and yang, and the coexistence of five elements. In the study of modern geomantic omen, geomantic omen is defined as a natural science integrating geophysics, hydrogeology, cosmology, meteorology, environmental landscape, architecture, ecology and human bioinformatics. "House is based on emotion, spring water is blood, land is meat, vegetation is hair, house is based on clothes, and portal is the crown. If there is, it is elegant and auspicious. " This passage of the ancients described the relationship between Feng Shui and human settlements. Using the principle of geomantic omen, we can understand and study the natural environment, and use and transform it according to its situation, thus creating the living environment and life process. This is the concept of Feng Shui refined by Lao Yuanji's expert team when studying Feng Shuiyi.
