Excellent piece. This is a treasure. Well done. Probably one of the best pieces on Hong Kong for quite some time. Very informative and balanced. Great job !!
All this talk of Feng Shui and Ch’i and the steps the Chinese people take to establish it on a “good or bad” spectrum reminded me of this verse.. “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12 KJV
Very interesting to see the viewpoints of another culture. But, no matter Feng Shui, I would die in Hong Kong, with the crowds, the density of population, the absence of Nature, and those tall buildings. I am a Wood Dragon who needs to live among trees, with a sky, and have birds as friends. :-)

feng shui masters have something to say but only when they not being payed for consultancy. otherwise they come, they fart, they spit in a corner, they take hefty pile of money and they approve. bank of china was build on two concrete pillars not to wake sleeping beneath dragon - feng shui masters approved that. price and waterhouse building was build with all windows round cause it was blocking dragon breath - feng shui masters idea. hk is full of these stories. masters fight among themselves - one says - that snake, other says - noo! that dragon. all these disputes are settled with MONEY. it is always about that folks, sad HK is financial centre - try not to pay those sandal wearing and smelly masters - you and your business are doomed cause peeps will not want your services. masters know how to spread bad words and chinese are very superstitious - your business will fall or in best case scenario be doing just so so. another prove that feng shui is legit hahaha. just prepare that pile of money and consult master - it is like levy you pay to mafia for protection
Hehehe, HongKong’s Fenshui sounded interesting. But no one takes into consideration of 20 years cycles of rotation of stars and fortunes. Therefore they’re all becoming just a set of silly discussions. If China didn’t do what they did to HongKong, HongKong would be much worse, from year 2000. They intended to feed HongKong with super strong an fast veins of fortune. They intended to make HongKong the new Silicon Valley type of fortune (super rich and fast). HongKong will be on super fast lane from now on. High gears will kick in starting 2023. Mainland China Chinese are not malevolence as some might have us think. China made countries around them rich so quickly that, they are really dazed, confused, not sure why American wanted them to cut off China market. HongKong people have had this HongKong superiority complex against all Asian countries, especially severe with mainland Chinese. Kay si , in Cantonese (prejudice) meant strange vision of others, while it’s very obvious that there’s nothing wrong with “others”. Therefore, it’s our own vision that is the problem. Let us correct our vision problems. Loving kindness to everyone.
interesting thing is most of these "snakes" constructions like the railway stations and bridges were very divisive in Hong Kong as most of them are view as pointless reinventing wheels kind of infrastructure that sinks huge amount of money and resources to build
风水 Feng Shui is like astrology. totally superstition and fiction. it works similarly with TA technical analysis . although TA works to Some extent because of logic. Example, when the price becomes too high or expensive, then, it is bound to have a correction. But all of them are self-fulfilling prophecies. One Who truly believes in such superstition is diligent enough to be dedicated to his work , thus giving more chances to succeed in life. Dedication and Hard Work
From my work experience and exposure from research work...I would say that Feng (Wind) Shui (Water) is an actual science but was contaminated or corrupted over the centuries by politics and religion. For example build your door facing south and hill or mountain on your back, Beijing is a capital built near the ancient borders in order to cope with raiders from the north and it is a good policy to keep the main gate away from the enemy and best to keep a mountain in between. Cross review it with other culture structural design handling water, wind, heat, etc of their buildings like in the middle east and europe, the logic works. Even the fengshui concept of zero energy in windswept area. Now you could study these realistic fengshui design by researchers from earth homes designers and permaculturists. It shows how bad an autocratic regime like CCP and many of its predecessors in ancient China could contaminate an important branch of scientific practice with thousands of years of history.
@@profuji7945 well, sort of because in some designs you can cause grievous harm or kill people using feng shui even in scientific way. Because on a large scale we could harness it with intent, what we call microclimate. It could affect physical and biological property of the location. Some could promote growth of harmful things. Worse case scenario is the lake of death in Africa. Short explanation the lake have properties similar like a bottle soda and agitation of the water equilibrium case massive bubbles of CO2. Many died, even car engines stopped. Lucky few who survived were ones who coincidentally stood on their trucks or at elevated position. Every oxygen breathing creature who stood below human height first passed out from lack of oxygen within seconds and died. The phenomena called "lake upturned" or "limnic eruption". Edit: google Lake Nyos, 1986.
Feung Shui is real but so many of those who claim to be experts may just be as fraudulent as dentist or doctors who just want to make money. Feng Shui is about Energy and that can make sense.
Going on the tram up to the top of Victoria Peak, it looked like the harbor was slowly tilting and would soon drain out. I know that it was an optical illusion but it was fun to see.
is Feng Shui like the first season of yu gi oh? where you can make whatever interpretation as you go? or is there hard rules where you interpret according to them?
its part of the ending of Kali Yuga. The old days what so call "prosperity" is heavily materialized, money, lust & power. By 2024 the end of Yuga here comes the Spiritual uprising. The old world has to go, like what the parasite did to Tartaria
Wow! Very interesting video. I don't believe in magic, but then I do, in the sense that people's beliefs can be self-fulfilling. For example in stock-trading there's a kind of pseudo-science called "technicals" that looks for figures in a stock price, such as "cup and handle" or "head and shoulders" that allegedly make predictions on future stock price. There's also more sophisticated or complex philosophies or religions you might say, such as Elliot Waves. And there's also simpler technicals, such as "death crosses", that do indeed show solid predictive statistical correlations, and can be defended on first principles. But however unfounded some of these belief systems may be, the fact that a lot of traders out there believe in them is a self-fulfilling market force.
Hong Kong had not really been free for Hongkoner's but for the westerners, Britain should issue green cards and absorb Hongkoners as citizen if Britain cares about Hong Kong citizens.
Most of the South & South East Asian society still have strong belief to superstition. It's hard to explain, but even in country like Japan, it still exist. Like, the state of Taira Masakado's shrine determines the safety & prosperity of the capital - i think the Great Kanto Earthquake and one other earthquake coincides with the decrepit state of the shrine at the time.
"snakes restrain tortoises" Produce the photo you are relying on for your well thought commentary which is based on facts. I'm sure you'll easily prove the basis for your statement.
HK has fallen already many years ago for one simple reason, Asians adopting the worst of western culture, so in HK you got the worst of china and the worst of western culture, where do you expect this to lead? Stop talking crap
I pray for the safety of Jimmy Lai and the rest of the Hong Kongers. They deserve better and freedom. I'll forever miss visiting Hong Kong.
Sounds like something straight out of Mage: The Ascension.
It's time to gather the 7 dragon balls to counter the evil feng shui and restore balance and peace.
Feng Shui is developed in India and is called Vastu-Shastra.
The learning is migrated to China during Buddhist era.
I agree
It's so hard to believe but at the same time, the events surrounding the 'fung shuei' are uniquely intriguing.
It makes no difference what so ever, except in ones mind that believe it!
Coincidence, make believe and ignoring cases where it doesn't match

Good information. A lesson learnt though especially on Fengshui concept. Its too deep yeah.😊👍

People in India,not all, follow Vaastu Shastra. Somewhat akin to Feng shui.

The fung shui fanatics actually put a mirror to reflect bad spirits on the building that’s in the news because of unaccountable shaking.
Going on the tram up to the top of Victoria Peak, it looked like the harbor was slowly tilting and would soon drain out. I know that it was an optical illusion but it was fun to see.
Last time I was interested in Feng Shui (and tarot and astrology) was when I was in highschool. Then I grew up.

It's very educational to see that even Hong Kongers, whom I admire, can believe nonsense like this.
Awesome!
Hong Kong had not really been free for Hongkoner's but for the westerners, Britain should issue green cards and absorb Hongkoners as citizen if Britain cares about Hong Kong citizens.
Good observation! China still is the architect of feng shui. It still has the dragons from kun lun mountains.
This video is philosophically deep, even for an Overseas Cantonese like myself.
This is amazing, they even went so far to use Feng Shui to try to destroy HK.
Does seem preordained - plus how long ago do these original plans go back to I wonder
@@neilmcdougall4927 reminds me of that feng shui syndicate/cult from the Rorouni Kenshin anime.
Wow I didn't know there was so much strong superstition in the ultra modern society of Hong Kong.
Yes, they have religions to!
