Dear Yaoliang,

1. Frankly, from my experience, I do come across, clients who have previously being advised by a Feng Shui Master to place windchimes.

2. For this instance, the client was asked to place windchimes on all four corners of the living/dining room.

3. Subsequently, or by coincidence, this client met with problems. And, `damage' control had to be done i.e. undo what was done previously.

4. To this day, I am still quite puzzled by many Feng Shui practitoners who like to recommend windchimes in abundance.

5. Usually the `litmus test' is to relate or try to relate the placement of objects with the Five Elements concept.

Here, a specific element is used to neutralise a sha qi or poison arrow. Or a combination of elements are used to do so.

6. Seriously, maybe you have to ask the Feng Shui Master, what is his/her rationale for you to place 3 windchimes. And specifically ask: what type of windchime:

hollow rod / solid rod?
metal/wood or combination of it? etc..

7. Many of the current practises or fondness of using objects e.g. windchimes etc.. perhaps, is due to supersitition.

8. There is another school of Feng Shui, which is related to buddhism which talks about the eight lucky treasures of Buddha.

9. Here, this school, asks their clients to bury e.g. a plague of the eight treasures before laying the tiles. For example, an eight treasure plague is placed at the front door and at all corners of the house. In my opinion, this is more of a superstition.

10. When I have the opportunity, I would go to the various temples and ask their senior monk/chief, of what relevance (if any) of such placements. Or it is simply just the standalone work of the Feng Shui practitioner.

11. But, presently, I have doubts if any of the monks would advise on such matters as these are considered materalistic objects. Temples do not use them. Therefore, I feel that it is most likely of a commercial interest.

12. Last weekend, I was on my way to a Feng Shui talk.. and Robert pointed to me a monk carrying a handphone etc... Times have changed indeed.

13. In my opinion, therefore, if you can try to contact the Feng Shui Master -- as you have a right to know more of the purpose of placing them.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
