Feng Shui MasterChan Kun WahQi Magazine 22
Sensing theDragon QiAs I waited for my interview with Master Chan Kun Wah, I tried toimagine what type of person he would be. Later, as we shook hands and introducedourselves, I was first struck by his tallness and his young looks. He looked at leastten years younger than his 52 years and he was quite softly spoken and humble inhis manners, not having any of the arrogance one often associates with those whocall themselves Master.He began to study Feng Shui when he was fourteen with a Chinese masterwho searched him out. He tells his story below.QM: You began studying Feng Shui when you were fourteen. Did youhave an interest already?No, no interest at all. The first two years, I was totally un-interestedbecause at the time I was still too young. The way it happend was mymaster picked me, I did not pick my master. He wanted me to learnFeng Shui, but at that time I did not understand what Feng Shuimeant. You can’t see it. You can’t smell it. I did not know my masterbefore at all. He found me and picked me.There were other people who wanted to learn, but my Master justignored them. I was so annoyed with him. I said, “Why don’t youpick them, if you pick them I won’t need to follow you every day.Maybe they will not follow you instead of me, because it is not funin the morning.” When you are walking up in mountains in themorning, your whole trousers are wet, especially when you arefourteen. At fourteen, a young boy should be chasing girls not chasingthe dragon.During the hours three to five in the morning, however, the Qi isquite pure and there are no distractions. That is why this is the righttime to sense the Qi, no pollution, no nothing. Also it is quiet andyou can hear things more clearly.QM: I can see that you respect your Sifu, Master Chue Yen, a greatdeal. Would you want to talk a bit about him?He was a very talented and clever man. He grew up a very wealthyman. During the Qing Dynasty they had imperial examinations andif you passed them you would get a wealthy job in the government.That is why he studied very hard, the philosophy, the history,everything. During his last year of study, before his examinations,the Qing Dynasty was demolished and there where no more examsof this type. This meant he could not get a wealthy job. He was so fedup and sad, all his hopes were finished.Afterwards, his whole character totally changed and his parentsbecame worried because he was the only son in the family. Hismother said that perhaps he should get a young lady and get married.If they had a family, maybe it would change his character. As soon ashe heard this, he ran away. He was scared, so he just ran away to atemple in the mountains. He wanted to be a monk, but as soon as themonk saw him, he said, “You can’t be a monk, no way can you be amonk.” He told him to go away but, my master said, “I do not wantto go away. Can you give me a job, any job?”“Okay,” the monk said, “You can work in the kitchen, choppingwood and doing cooking.” So he worked in the temple for about fiveyears to follow this monk, who during this time began to teach himFeng Shui skill. After five years, very early one morning, the monktold my master, “Today is the last day you can stay here. After lunchyou should go.”Then my master said, “But where do I go? I have no where to go.”The monk said, “Follow the direction that I will tell you and you willfind your next Sifu.” So he told my master to go in a particulardirection and to look for a pagoda at a crossroads. This was a placewhere people would rest in the hot weather. At this place my mastermet his next Sifu, he met a Daoist master who took him and taughthim Feng Shui. He stayed with him until just before Mao took overChina, then my Sifu left and went to Hong Kong.QM: How are Daoism and Feng Shui linked?Qi Magazine 23
