Master Yu is a very nice and easy person. He promised on phone that he would do his best to satisfy the family’s needs and to assist the late old man on his way to the heaven. As a matter of fact, they were very shocked and nervous, so that they really needed to be calmed and comforted by someone like Master Yu. Equipped with his rich knowledge and extensive experience, Master Yu applied all relevant Feng Shui factors, such as geography, geology, hydrology and environment, combined with the late old-man’s birthday related eight characters and other requirements of the family throughout the site selection process. He finally found a perfect site with excellent Feng Shui and made the family very happy. The professional American salesman of cemeteries was surprised that selection of a gravesite could be so complicated, so profound, and so satisfactory yet make so much sense. He declared that he would also want Master Yu to select a site for him in the future. Master Yu’s services did not stop there, though. He spent the next two days to perform all aspects of the Feng Shui procedure until the completion of funeral and burial. All the family, relatives and friends attended the funeral were impressed.

Although I have seen western style funerals in movies before, to witness Master Yu’s Feng Shui practice from site selection through burial ceremony was quite an experience.I was deeply touched by Master Yu’s character, scholarship and professionalism, with a perfect combination of comprehensive theory and practical approaches. I strongly recommend all you readers to contact Master Yu for your Feng Shui needs and services.

During the 4-hour long seminar, Master Yu presented detailed Feng Shui procedures and many case studies, combined with his extensive knowledge and Feng Shui principles, to an audience who was wholly absorbed with the penetrating brilliance, profound influence and universal applicability of Feng Shui theories.

In recent years, Sichuan Restaurant have hosted many delegations and guests from China and received countless praises from all sides. Master Yu indicated that the excellent Feng Shui of the Restaurant is a significant factor for its business success. He further analyzed some details of the Restaurant’s Feng Shui coordination upon request of the owner and the audience. The owner was so happy about the compliments and remarked jokingly that with the good Feng Shui he’s afraid that guests would be crowded in hallways in addition to all the dinning rooms in the future. Interested readers are welcome to check out the restaurant’s tasteful dishes, thoughtful services, and effects of its Feng Shui design.

The seminar was very well received, and everybody attended felt extremely good about it. Afterwards, many friends called to show interest to such a beneficial activity. The event organizer pledged to meet their needs and help them learn more about Feng Shui. Similar seminars have been planned for beginners and the general public.

The Real Estate Center recommends you to pay a close attention to Feng Shui before selling or buying a house. A little investment in Feng Shui study will save you for potential huge cost and troubles down the road. An appropriate adjustment and coordination in accordance with the Feng Shui principles will help a seller get a quicker sale and the maximize his/her profit; whereas a thorough Feng Shui analysis will help a buyer obtain the most suitable house with the best value. Although he is always very busy, Master Yu would like to advocate the grand Feng Shui culture and serve the people in Chinese community of the Greater Boston Area.

As an accomplished scientist, I used to be rather conceited and blindly reject things that I did not understand. I paid most of my attention to natural sciences while completely ignoring Buddhism, theology, and Feng Shui; my attitudes towards them were of prejudice and fear. I thought that they were useless to my work and research. Looking back at what I experienced, I found that I had a lot of confusion and misunderstanding in my life and work, that my mind became narrow and rigid, and that I suffered increasingly more setbacks. I was often thrown off balance when facing people and circumstances, either agreeing with or rejecting them all. Eventually, I had the chance to learn about Feng Shui, a knowledge that has lifetime benefits . As Master Yu emphasized, the essence of Feng Shui is to understand  Nature, to fit into Nature, to re-mold Nature for human’s advantage, and ultimately to adapt oneself into perfect harmony with all the circumstances. He asked, “How could a happy life and a harmonious realm be achieved without pursuing profound knowledge and  rich experiences?” Master Yu indicated that the highest realm of Feng Shui is the harmonious unity of “the heaven, the earth and the human.”

Traditionally, theories of Feng Shui were mainly applied to start construction, build houses, select gravesites, pitch camps, and exorcise evil spirits, etc. Nowadays, ordinary people pay more and more attention to Feng Shui design as well. The sister of a friend of mine once complained that her Feng Shui was worsen, resulting in a heavy heart, less sleep, and poor health… Guided by a Feng Shui master with a thorough analysis of her predestined characters, she reorganized her indoor furniture in the master bedroom, restrooms and the kitchen in accordance with the Feng Shui principles so that her state of mind has become calm and peaceful while her health has been significantly improved. That is just one sample of how Feng Shui can modify and improve our lives. In addition, use of special functions of magnet field/anti-magnet field and crystal has been applied more in daily life since more electronic devices have been used and the resulted magnet fields adversely influence human health. Master Yu revealed that Feng Shui design could adjust and modify the concerned magnet field, anti-magnet field, potential and energy, etc. through rearrange influential factors such as geography, position, and furniture. 

According to the difference of applications to the living and the dead, theories of Feng Shui are usually be categorized as Yang Chai Feng Shui (for residence houses of the living) or Yin Chai Feng Shui (for gravesites or dark houses of the dead). Of course, Yang Chai Feng Shui can influence people’s mindset and work environment, which has been integrated into interior design and decoration, etc. On the other hand, Yin Chai Feng Shui can influence not only the dead but also the living relatives and the future generations as well as their mindset, work and fortune.

As mentioned before, there are profound scientific principles behind theories of Feng Shui. The main stream Feng Shui theories can be presented in three different aspects: in applicable aspect it contains cumulative and summarized human experience in architecture; in scientific aspect it includes fundamental knowledge of many natural sciences; and in philosophical aspect it integrates principles and concepts of Yi Ching – an ancient Chinese philosophy. All the three aspects are closely and complexly related, so some people call these a sort of metaphysics. Some other people simply call Feng Shui as Yi applications to architecture, but that is neither appropriate nor necessary. Despite of their similarities, the applications of Feng Shui theories to architecture are not the same as that of Yi theories.

Many see Feng Shui as a mystery of mysteries because few understand it. However, we should not ignore it or give up learning opportunities just because we don’t understand. Master Yu has successfully combined the Feng Shui secrets handed down in his family from generation to generation with modern Feng Shui theories and applied them to help people select suitable dates, exorcise evil spirits, modify predestined fortune, diminish complex illness, and solve complicated problems, etc. through repositioning residential houses, business buildings, restaurants, shops, and offices using special crystal or jade devices. We can definitely be benefited by Master Yu’s consummate expertise and excellent services.

Abrand new, six-star hotel was opened into operation in earlier 2008 at Boston’s fashionable and gorgeous Back Bay area. It provides world-class facilities, luxury accommodations, and extraordinary services. Located at the corner of Boyleston Street and Newburry Street, the new hotel is in the neighborhood of lots of famous brand stores, the well-known Boston Common and the recently completed South-End Recovery Project as a bright shining star decorated right in the center of this beautiful American metropolis. Its sumptuous and tasteful design is comfortable and satisfactory, enjoyed and praised by visitorts from all over the world.

It is hard to image, though, there was a fire not long ago that damaged the whole building and made the hotel like a ruin without guests. Before the hotel’s reconstruction, the CEO asked the renowned Feng Shui Master, Mr. Yu Guang, to come to see the site and give his advice. Based on the traditional Feng Shui principles of the Five-Element Cycle and the modern Feng Shui theories for understanding the Nature, utilizing the Nature, modifying the Nature and conforming to the Nature, Master Yu rearranged the overall positioning of the hotel’s direction, location, design, interior and exterior dispositions, and color coordination, etc. that has resulted in magnificent scenes as above-mentioned and the hotel’s current booming business. It is outrageously amazing, isn’t it? Here, I am not going to comment if the mystery Feng Shui theories really have such a magic effect, but just go ask those who have been benefited with their life experience. They will tell you the truth…

Master Yu Guang’s family is an aristocratic one in Feng Shui field from Taishan in Guangdong Province. The Yu family’s secrets on Feng Shui practice has been handed down to Master Yu through four generations. Master Yu started to study Feng Shui when he was very young. With his high power of understanding, strong interest, investigative persistence and original views, he made his own fame among his contemporaries.

According to Master Yu, Feng Shui investigation needs to integrate all the three vital factors of celestial phenomena (the heaven), local landscape (the earth) and flow of spiritual energy (the human). The stars in the heaven correspond with the location on the earth and then affect the relevant human beings, that reflects the elegant nature of Feng Shui – the balance between Yin and Yang inside of everything and all things in the world and the endless Yin-Yang cycle of “combination followed by division and division followed by combination”. The (spiritual) energy and the shape are always integrated – the energy was shaped at Tai Chi (the origin of the universe), Tai Chi divided into the Two Appearances (Yin and Yang), which in turn derived into the Five Elements (Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal)… followed by the Eight Diagrams and the Nine Squares. There is no ending for the dynamic cycles of production, reduction and destruction between Yin and Yang or the Odd and the Even, as well as among the Five Elements in accordance with the transformations based on the Luo Diagram. Furthermore, the Even is corresponding with the dragon’s heritage and helps on balance of the overall arrangements; whereas the Odd is for exorcising evil spirits and carries favor with the good fortunes. So, the heaven, the earth and the human are integrated in a perfect harmony where human is the principal while mountain is the shape and water is the media.

Also according to Master Yu, Feng Shui is actually a comprehensive science which puts cosmology, geophysics, hydrogeology, meteorology, environmental landscaping, architecture, ecology and human bioinformatics into one integrated body. The purpose of Feng Shui practice is to understand, utilize and modify the Nature based on careful and thorough investigation in order to create the best possible residential environment and the optimized coordination among the Heaven, the Earth and the Human. As a powerful tool, there are differences between doing good or doing evil when applying Feng Shui. To practice Feng Shui with a good will and kind heart will help people and serve the society. All the things between the Heaven and the Earth have their respect energy, so what we need to do is to coordinate them into harmony, making Yin and Yang, the Heaven and the Earth, and the energy (Chi) and the shape integrated. For either Yin Chai (gravesite) or Yang Chai (residential house), the location and orientation, the front and the rare, the left and the right, and the energy and the shape should be coordinated well in an harmonic integration. Particularly for Yang Chai (residential house), between furniture and space or furniture and human and vice versa, the optimized arrangements will correspond to the natural coordination and development of the three natural magnetic fields in cosmic stars, the earth’s poles and the human bodies, respectively. That is in fact the perfect harmony of the Heaven, the Earth and the Human.

We always talk about “water is a fortune”. But, what is water in Feng (wind) Shui (water)? Water follows the shape of mountain, mountain stops water as a boundary, while roads surround houses where water stops. The best water-related housing setup should be coordinated with proper shape and balanced structure. The former should be open and the later closed. Again, mountain is the shape and water is the media so that Yin and Yang can integrate, combine and cumulate. That is the rationale behind the old saying: “Let the rivulet runs through the bright hall.”

Geology is a vital aspect of Feng Shui studies. Master Yu indicated that geological conditions have direct, significant impacts on human health so that they need to be investigated carefully. Many elements, such as zinc, molybdenum, selenium, fluorine, and uranium, exist in soil and groundwater which can adversely influence human bodies and cause diseases or cancers. So, houses should only be built after a careful site selection based on thorough analyses of the land, water and surroundings in order to avoid any contamination and hazardous substances, in accordance with the Feng Shui principle of exorcising evil spirits and pursuing good fortune.

Furthermore, Master Yu explained that the dragon is always the most important in geographic structures. The so called dragon means the lie of a mountain or the physical features of the land. Soil is the dragon’s flesh, rocks are its bones, and vegetation is its hair. The energy and the shape will be perfectly coordinated if the site is located somewhere with the dragon’s arteries and veins connected with the owner’s ancestors’ spirits so that Yin and Yang could be arranged according to the Feng Shui principles of the Five Elements, the Nine Stars, and the Eight Aspirations. To build a grave (Yin Chai) or a house (Yang Chai) at such a selective site with coordination by the five vital factors of the dragon, the nest, the soil, the water, and the orientation will make Yin and Yang supplement to each other and then create a perfect combination of the heaven, the earth and the human.

In the 21st century, cities are expanding very quickly, and there are a lot of roads and streets in cities with houses on both sides. So, the roads/streets and the vehicles are considered as water flow in rivers. In cases of houses on just one side, it will be considered as sand. It’s usually said as 1st house, 2nd fortune, 3rd Feng (wind) Shui (water), 4th cumulative virtue, and 5th reading books – that is right – in addition to the grand dragon, human relationships, upstream, upwind, high ground, and circulation of lucky water, the lucky house and its prestigious location depend on the four lucky columns and the violet clouds from the east. According to Master Yu, there is a major principle of reduction in his Feng Shui theory – one should not plant trees in front of his main entrance. It’s supported by the science, for trees may obstruct the sun light and stop air flow. Trees may also be hit by lightening. Birds rest on the trees and drop to contaminate the environment, encouraging mosquitoes and insects and spreading diseases. Another reduction may be caused by locating a house with the main entrance facing a coming road or street. Besides, one should always try to avoid electric poles or big rocks in frond of the main entrance. To exorcise evil spirits and pursue fortune will benefit the owner and residents of the house.

There is a grand restaurant in Quincy of Massachusetts. Its original main entrance was not facing a good direction and its stoves were located in wrong places, so the business was bad. The owner asked Master Yu to do something about it. Master Yu conducted a very careful investigation and found the causes as mentioned before. In addition, he found the centrally positioned cashier desk was really the killer – a major destruction factor in the restaurant’s overall Feng Shui arrangements. Then, he changed the positioning of the cashier desk, the main entrance and the restrooms, modified the interior arrangements and decorations, and improved the restaurant’s fortune by accumulating human energies. Now the restaurant’s business has been booming.

The Earth is a planet surrounded by the cosmic magnetic field, which people may not feel but were, are and will be affected all the time. If the human magnetic field is not coordinated with the cosmetic magnetic field and the earth magnetic field, human health will be adversely impacted. So, serious diseases, natural disasters or human mistakes may occur if people disobey the natural laws. Whereas, to follow the natural laws, to develop coordinately and to conserve the ecological balances would integrate the cosmic, earth and human magnetic fields into a perfect harmony that would therefore benefit everybody.

With his comprehensive knowledge, profound vision and extensive experience of more than thirty years, Master Yu has attracted lots of visitors and audience wherever he goes. He has been invited to give various lectures and seminars and to practice Yin-Yang Chai Feng Shui operations in many countries. There were some well-known architects among his audience. Master Yu told them that the main entrance of Yang Chai (residence houses) is the opening for the live energy, so the lucky and prestigious house should be able to accumulate the energy (and the good fortune – dragon luck), store wind, back mountain, face water, have a perfect balance and stable foundation, be bright and open, coordinate with colors, spaces, furniture, decorations, and other relevant thing both inside and outside in a optimized harmony. He’s summarized all fundamentals of Feng Shui integrated into architecture in just a few simple words, very inspiring and profound.

Master Yu is a very modest person; he never wants to show off. A humble scholar with a sense of humor, witty talks, beaming smile and confident laughs, he maintains that a Feng Shui scholar shall provide beneficial advice to people and improve their living environment with more favorable Feng Shui arrangements thus promote their health, longevity, and fortune. Therefore, we should do our best to explore the truth of Feng Shui study meanwhile promoting the brilliant Chinese civilization throughout the world to benefit more and more people.

The workshop was co-sponsored by CCC and Boston Web Power. English interpretation was provided in order to allow non-chinese speakers to learn the antient chinese culture.

Master Yu said, Feng Shui is actually a comprehensive science which puts cosmology, geophysics, hydrogeology, meteorology, landscaping, architecture, ecology and human bioinformatics into one. The purpose of Feng Shui practice is to understand, utilize the Nature based on careful and thorough investigation in order to achieve the perfect harmony of the Heaven, the Earth and the Human. He also used graphics to explain how to choose good residential Fengshui and what to do to optimize the fengshui. The workshop was interactive. Master Yu answered many questions from the audients.

After the workshop Master Yu did Fengshui for CCC and gave suggetions.
