A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This is a short work on Feng Shui. Feng Shui is an ancient form of geomancy, with roots in Animism, Taoism and Confucianism. Chapters in this book include, The Laws Of Nature, The Numerical Proportions Of Nature, The Breath Of Nature, The Forms And Outlines Of Nature, and The History And Literature Of Feng-Shui. "Everything that exists on earth is but the transient form of appearance of some celestial agency. Everything terrestrial has its prototype, its primordial cause, its ruling agency in heaven. The Chinese philosopher, looking at the beauties of nature, the variety of hills and plains, rivers and oceans, the wonderful harmony of colour, light and shade, sees in it but the dim reflex of that more splendid scenery frescoed in ethereal beauty on heaven's starry firmament. He gazes at the sun, that dazzling regent of the day, and recognizes in him, as his terrestrial reflex, the male principle of creation, ruling everything that is under the sun."
