FOREIGNERS AND FUNG SHUI

DAN WATERS

The system of fung shui, therefore, based as it is on human speculation and superstition and not on careful study of nature, is marked for decay and dissolution.

By contrast to the above, the following (again the opinion of a single person) was published 89 years later.

I believe that the human mind has reached a point in evolution where it is about to develop new powers — powers that once would have been considered magical. In the animal kingdom, 'magical powers' are common place. Civilised man has forgotten about them because they are no longer necessary to his survival.

Synopsis

The Occult

Colin Wilson 1971

This paper looks at fung shui largely as it affects Westerners, although, to do this, its role within Chinese society must also be examined. What is fung shui? How do Caucasians, western hongs (business houses) and the British Hong Kong Government view, and react to, it?

This paper, in which comparisons are made between Chinese fung shui and geomancy in other cultures, also examines two case studies. Firstly, the fung shui in an urban flat at Mid-Levels, and, secondly, the fung shui in business premises. This paper also looks at the growing role played by fung shui in the West. Conclusions are drawn on the study overall.
