Unhappy

Hi Lakshmi,

I know some tips in Fengshui, but I don`t know whether it is working or not.

1.Keep the laughing Buddha idol facing the entrance of your home, which will bring

wealth as believed.

2.Keep a bowl of salt (unrefined or crystal) in toilets to neutralise the negative

energy. Change it fortnightly or weekly. I always do it.

3.Remove all non-functional clocks and other appliances from home.

4.Use agarbathis for cleansing negative energy.

5.The best place to hang a six-rod wind chime is in the northwest corner of your

living room.

If anybody has benefitted from Fengshui, please share with us.

Default Feng shui items

Hi,

I have also heard about Feng shui items - that they bring health, wealth and prosperity. It is told to bring positive energy in the environment where it is placed - be it home or office.

I have a laughing buddha carrying a ingot on top of his head - it is a typical posture of laughing buddha. It signifies abundance. It is the most suitable figurine for those who are seeking to have fulfillment in life and have successful pursuits.

Hi,

Feng Shui is a chinese science which resembles our ancient hindu science of Vaastu shastra. I used to watch a program on fengshui on the national TV here.

Some tips i have heard are
  1. Always keep your toilet seat/comode covered. Never keep it open.
  2. IF there are any leaks in the sanitary pipes at home, fix them immediately. Else money would flow like water.
  3. Never keep clutter at home. Throw away whatever is not used or not needed.
  4. In the left most corner of your bed room or living room, keep something auspicious, like idol of God or a family picture and keep the space free of clutter.
  5. If you are keen on improving marital and romantic relations, hang the paintings or pictures of a couple in the space u mostly use (ur bedroom). If u have a picture of a single woman or a single man there, move it to another spot in the house.

Default Feng Shit at your workplace

It is believed that one can enhance their career energies by placing glass vases and bowls in the work place.

I used to have a glass vase filled with artificial flowers in my work place and psychologically I felt it helped me being successful at work.
