Can A Buddhist Practices Feng Shui?

Yes, why not? Qi affects us in everyway irregardless of our religious beliefs. Feng Shui works like acupuncture, it is the manipulation of the Qi in our immediate environment to cure our daily mundane ills. Its efficacy is not dependent on you believing it or not. A tribal villager may think that you are bullshiting him when you try to explain to him the existence of ultraviolet rays but it does not change the fact that he can get skin cancer if he is overexposed to the rays under the sun. However, please note that the Buddha is clear that such practices are not advocated for a Buddhist. I know that there are many Feng Shui Masters who promoted Feng Shui hand in hand alongside with their Buddhist practices and in turn hope that their apparent piety can rake in more Feng Shui audit deals fro them.

Alvin Chua
