enci 1 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Hi, Let me clarify from the Buddhist perspective. Fengshui consultants are not good representations of Buddhism or Buddhist practises. The practise of using salt n grains for dedicating a new home or conscretion of Buddha or Bodhisattva statues is not a Buddhist practise. For Buddhists, the power of external stuff such as holy oraments, grains, salt or holy water is not the point that a Buddhist should build its faith upon on. For a Buddhist, simplicity n understanding is more important in bringing out the effect of "blessing" a new home. a Buddhist home or altar is dedicated thru the external ceremony or reciting of the sutras and mantras which are supposed to encompass the goodness of the Buddha and as a skillful mean for the occupuant, water is sprinkled about the space symbolising the seed of goodness planted in thr family for now and future.What is important is that the occupant understands this simple ceremony and abides to live in harmony inline with Buddhist teachings, then this will be a truly blessed home by inside and outside. 内外吉祥 。。。 ENCI feel free to ask any questions for homes, dedicating houses etc By appointmentmt2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
