yokine9a 1 Report post Posted March 26, 2008 Although I think that I am superstitious by insisting that my stove cannot face any water elements, I did nothing on the first day when I opened the door to my newly bought resale flat.Only when my parents wanted to do some praying in the house, I let them burnt joss sticks in the corners of all the rooms before the renovation started.I will probably choose an auspicious day to move in Wonder what Christians do when they bought a flat, I guess they won't do all this? Anyway, I am a Buddhist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

h4happy 1 Report post Posted March 26, 2008 My house was audited by fsm as I just want to make sure my family members live happily together and in good health and have 3 meals to eat, and have stable jobs and have stable income and live in peace and happiness and good health and 'chou lu pin ang'!The rest like strike toto or 4d is not that impt to me. But if there is, of course that will be a bonus.i have methodists and catholics customers what do you think? infact certain buddism school dont encourage fs also.sg is rojak compare to other countries - 99% of singaporeans believes $$$ comes first before anything else.where else some countries(people) out there actually believes even if dont work, their god will still give them FOOD.most important thing is - we should not force others to believe in what we believe, whether it's religion/atheism/fs/whatever. this is a free world.

yokine9a 1 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 Oh, so brother MaCe is a FS master? Aiyoh, their god is their government loh !! Well, sad to see that so many Singaporeans believes $$ comes first. Each time I came back to Singapore after a few years living in overseas, I kind of sad to see that the whole society is not turning to the friendly and more considerate direction Actually, $$ is important but no need to go extreme lah.

rachelgoh 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2008 Hi Everybody I am sure everybody will go thru this eagerly. After reading thru the topics, this is what I find. Please advise what actual steps need to do. My finding: 1) Find a auspicious date and time according to your baizi. 2) Only immediate families allow to go in. No outsiders. 3) After that, cannot enter for 3 days. eg) monday open door, wait until thur can open door??) 4) Things to bring: a) 1 Pineapple (wan li) (to row into your house) say something good word like huat ah!! b) 5 Red Apples or kum (ji xiang ru yi) c) Grapes d) Bananas e) Fa Gao f) Charcoal (wrap in red paper) All put in the middle of the living room. 5) Salt and Rice (to sprinkle all over the house) 6) Burn Joss Stick and burn incense paper (middle of the house): for buddhist My questions: 1) Is the above correct? 2) After 3 days, we open the door again and can bring all the fruits back home? 3) item 6 need to have 2 red wax candles? 4) Need to pray outside the main door? Thanks everybody!! HAPPY according to my mum advice must also pray all 4 corner too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
