After thousands of years, the ancient wisdom and messages left by our ancestors still hold many useful truths. Many believe that everything good in life must be in harmony with feng shui. But if you know that following these messages will ensure that your actions are in line with feng shui principles, you will see that your own actions are aligned with good fortune, leading to a prosperous and auspicious life:
1. If you don’t want anyone to know, don’t do it
We shouldn’t try to hide bad things because paper can’t contain fire, and a needle in a cover will eventually be revealed. We seek Feng Shui masters to analyze the feng shui of our land, the direction of our house, the auspicious time for traveling, but if our hearts are not pure, always hiding the truth, it will be difficult to maintain good feng shui. If you don’t want others to know your flaws, it’s best not to do them, don’t think that you won’t be caught if you hide the truth. So, if you want to live worry-free, to have a peaceful life, you must not engage in illegal activities, breaking moral and ethical norms.
2. Those who neglect what’s near, will surely encounter harm
No feng shui will be good if you live carelessly without considering future consequences. A beautiful immediate outlook doesn’t mean that things will continue to go well; more than half of the reasons lie in the fact that people do not think far ahead!
3. Those who gossip are themselves gossipers
If your ears don’t hear gossip, your eyes don’t see conflicts, your heart doesn’t care for comparisons, and your mouth doesn’t utter ugly words, then your life will always be good because that is the goodness from within. Even if there is gossip behind your back, your path in life will still be smooth.
4. Giving up a little wind for calm sea, taking a step back for clear sky and serene clouds
When people interact with each other, it’s hard to avoid losses and conflicts, so when facing problems, you must learn to stay calm and tolerate a little. Then, nothing will happen, take one step back, and everything will become empty.
In today’s life, if we do regrettable things in a moment of impulsivity, we will regret it for a lifetime. Give up a little, and the sea will be wide and the sky high.
5. The young who make no effort will regret it when old
A good future depends on how you live your early life. So, don’t just wait there. If the young indulge in pleasures and don’t care about life, their future will naturally decline. Therefore, if you want a good life and prosperity in old age without worry, you must strive when you are young.
6. Close to ink, you will get stained; close to light, you will shine
This saying illustrates the relationship between people and their environment. Indeed, if you place a white piece of fabric close to a dyeing pool, over time, even if it doesn’t come into direct contact with the dye, the fabric will still change color.
This is a visual representation of the saying “close to ink, you will get stained; close to light, you will shine.”
Of course, in such an environment, there are also people who maintain their integrity, not caring about the temptations around them, like a lotus flower growing in the mud, straightening up, touching people’s hearts. It’s no wonder there is praise: “Close to mud, but not carrying the smell.” From here, we can see that being close to “light” or “ink” is not the key, the key lies in the nature of the objects. Of course, if people, things, and objects are not good, if they can be avoided, they should be kept far away.
7. Wealth is like dregs, but benevolence is worth its weight in gold
Wealth is not important, what is truly valuable is human kindness and ethics. This does not mean that money is useless. Money is precious, but not everything can be exchanged for money, and goodwill cannot be traded for money.
8. Don’t talk about chess moves, regret after making a move
In life, there is no medicine for regret, so before doing anything, you must carefully consider it before acting.
9. Knowing what is enough brings happiness
Ambitious people, whose desires are greater than their capabilities, even if they are already wealthy, will still feel lacking. People who desire only what is appropriate and suitable to their abilities and current circumstances will naturally be happy. Thus, do not compare yourself to others, but know what is enough with what you have, and you will find happiness. Those who know what is enough are easily satisfied because they know how to find beauty in things that others may consider imperfect, thus, they see everything as even better.
10. Enduring hardship is necessary to become a leader
In life, in learning, in careers, or in personal lives, most successful people have had to endure extreme hardship, it is through this that they taste the sweetness of success. Enduring hardship, nothing is difficult. Feng shui is created by the intelligence and abilities of each person, it is not about any superstition, just sitting there and praying will not bring results.
