pass on the skill of Yuen Hong. But there are not many people whocan learn this type of Feng Shui. It is too complicated and too difficult.Another type of Feng Shui is called Sam Hup which means threecombinations. According to Sam Hup, each mountain character canbe changed to change their elements. Then there is also Sam Yuenwhich means three fate: upper fate, middle fate and lower fate. Eachfate (era) is 60 years but there are also three stages in each of theseera’s lasting twenty years each. The upper stage has one, two andthree stages. The middle stage has the four, five and six stages. Thelower stage has the seven, eight and nine stages. We are currently inthe seventh stage. Inside of these there are many philosophies. Thisis only a long story cut short.Before in China, if you learnt one style you could not learn anotherstyle. If the Masters knew that you were learning another style hewould kick you out. He would not allow you to follow him, butnowadays it is different. I teach all three styles, separately, and letthe students judge and let them do theirresearch and see which style is better. Iwill not tell them which one is good. Imyself, use the three together which ismore powerful. At the moment I couldcall my Feng Shui style, “combinationstyle” as I use them all together.QM: What does being a Master mean toyou?It means you have passed your degree.You need to do more research. Maybeone year you do ten consultations. If outof the ten consultations, seven get goodresults, then you pass. If only five, thenyou are still not at that level. I alwaysfollow what my master told me to do.He always said to me, “Before you are50, you can’t be a Master.” Even when Iwas younger than 50, I trainedtwo youngstudents, one for horoscope and one forFeng Shui, they wanted to call me Sifu. Isaid, “No, I am not Sifu. Better you callme Mr.Chan. Don’t call me Chan Sifu, Iam still not Sifu.” This is because at thattime I knew I was still not qualified. Aperson should know whether or not theyhave reached that standard and whether they are qualified or notqualified. Don’t put people’s lives at risk. This is very important. Ifpeople ask you to do the consultation, they put their hope, theirfuture on your compass (skill).For the Feng Shui master, when people ask you to do things, youmust do it right. If you can’t do it, just tell them you can’t do it.Don’t ruin people’s lives. Some of the practitioners today do notknow what they are doing because they do not really understandFeng Shui. That is why they do not understand the danger and thatthey can harm a person’s life.In Hong Kong, it is very difficult to change the Feng Shui of all theapartments. Last year when I was in Hong Kong, a very famoussolicitor and barrister asked me to do their Feng Shui. Sometimesthere is just no way to do it, no way you can change the Feng Shui.So in this situation, what do you do? Do you tell them that it isbetter to move?I told them straight away that I could not do it because of the building.In this situation, I always do this. If I know I cannot do it, I tellthem. Maybe I can build up their energy, change a few things andthen they can move. Even if they stay there for long it is no use. It isjust draining their energy.Feng Shui is just like Qigong. If you can’t get the energy in, there isno energy to support you. If it is the other way round, if you supportthe house, this is wrong. It should be the house that supports you.Not you support the house. If there is no energy inside the house,how can the house support you? Feng Shui is based on the principleof yin and yang, feminine and masculine. It is said that when the yinQi and the yang Qi meet together, then the second generation willcontinue. If they can not meet together, then this is no use. Negativeand negative result in nothing, the same as positive and positive, alsonothing. It must be negative and positive.QM: Can a person change their destiny?When you talk about destiny, you are saying, can the person changetheir horoscope?. Now if you know the Chinese horoscope (Ba Zi),you can change your life. If you havebad fate you cannot do anything aboutthat but you can use Feng Shui tochange it. If you know both Feng Shuiand Ba Zi, this is the most powerfulbecause you can use both. If you onlyknow horoscope, but don’t know FengShui, and you are in a period of badfate, then do not do any investments.But if you also know Feng Shui, youcan change from bad to good.QM: If I said to you I want to be rich,but maybe it is not in my horoscope thatI am to be rich, can I make it possible?Let me give you an example of a couplewho came to me for a consultation.Both herself and her husband were ina bad fate period and contacted meabout their business which was doingpoorly. I used a very special skill thatwas taught to me by my Master whowarned me not to use this skill morethan six times a year as it uses a lot ofenergy and only then to help specialpeople. I used this skill to change theirluck for the better and soon they hadan increase in business with orders coming in.I used this skill because I knew they were a very nice couple andthey had put all their hope on me. It was a hard time for them aseveryone around them was looking down on them. Their place ofbusiness did not have good Feng Shui, and their house was not sogood either. I fought with myself inside as to what I was going to do.If I was going to use this skill, I knew it would drain me of muchenergy as I was very ill at the time with the flu. So I was thinking,thinking, and thinking, until, at the last moment, I decided to do it. Iknew that they were the right people to do this for as I had seen theirhoroscope and I knew that they were honest people. Also, whendoing a consultation, you can tell easily what type of person they are.You can tell straight away whether they are wealthy or not, andwhether you can trust them or not.At the end of the day, you should use Feng Shui skill for helpingpeople. I think that many people practise Feng Shui with the wrongheart. In the old ancient days, the master would choose the pupilfirst and the pupil must have a good heart. Second they must behonest, and third they must always respect their masterinterview byJessica BlackwellQi Magazine 27
TAIJI QIGONGINSTRUCTOR’S COURSEThis has been the only Qigong course to which I have attended in whichthe stress level increased as the course progressed rather than decreased.Friday began with a lovely dinnerlaid outwith shining cutlery andsparkling chinathat ended in groans after threegenerous courses which concluded in a fartoo tempting array of delicious puddings.There were worried looks at our leaderMichael Tse hoping that there was not goingto be any strenuous training on full stomachs.There were relieved sighs when the coursefinally began and notebooks were producedfor notetaking during his lecture. Some wereeven making detailed annotations in themargins of their study copy of Michael Tse’sbook, Qigong for Health and Vitality.S a t u r d a ymorning sawmany earlybirds out practicing inthe gardens, making thestaff wonder what theywere doing although itwas said, “it was quitepleasurable seeing all thedifferentexercises goingon.” Luckily, theweather was fine formost of the course soeven those delegateswho had come from asfar as Texas and NewYork to see the famedManchester rain weredisappointed. Of all thenearly 40 would behopefuls attending,everyone who was tested on the coursemanaged to pass. This involved doing theTaiji Qigong exercises chosen, being able toname three benefits of each, and thenanswering six practical questions relating tothings that had been discussed in the courseand that were in Michael Tse’s book. Someof the newly qualified instructor’s were thenchosen to help form a panel to ask questionsof their peers as they were tested. Highmarks must be given to Ian Woollards whowas the last person tested. Having sat throughnearly three hours of watching his peers betested, he was calm as he faced the inquistionand peeled off the answers to questions as ifhe had been a Qigong instructor for years.Everyone did very well and studiedextraordinarily hard. We have already hadfeed back from a student of Gill Hughes whosaid that she was enthusiastic upon herreturn, as she talked to her students aboutloyalty and discipline.This is the first course for TaijiQigong Instructors that the Tse QigongCentre has offered but judging from itssuccess and the good feeling of family that itcreated, we know that it is the first of many.Michael Tse said, “It is the right time for theCentre to grow and let the skill spread out,so that more people can benefit.” Thesecourses will help new instructors train sothat people in other areas can have theopportunity of studying good Qigong skill.All authorised Taiji Qigong and Wild Gooseinstructors have beenissued with a Tse QigongCentre Instructor’sCertificate which showsthat they have been testedon the skills they areteaching and that theyhave been shown to haveproper understanding andproficiency of these skillsfor teaching.Anyone interestedin finding moreinformation about futurecourses (the next is oneplanned for 6th to the 8thof November 1998 -Balancing Gong) orinstructors can call theCentre for information.To let you know how some of the instructorsfelt about the course, here are some quotesfrom their corraspondence to us below:“Thank you so much for awonderful weekend. I learned such a lot– about my courage…I really feel I knowsuch a lot more, feel more rounded andsure of myself.”“I appreciate the deeperunderstanding of the movements and youremphasis on the attitude for practise. It wasalso a treat to relax and get to know otherswho practise Qigong in other parts of theworld and it was uplifting to practiseQigong in beautiful surroundings.”“Everyone was so helpfuland supportive of each other – a wonderfulexperience. Thank you.”“Thank you for making thecourse so enjoyable.”Taiji Qigong IntsructorsBelow is the list of qualifiedTse Qigong Centre Taiji QigongInstructors.Peter AndersonAnne Maria AprilePeter BarkerCharlotte BergKate BrittonSue BurgeSue BurtonDody CarterKrishna ChaudhariSharon ClarkeChris CullenYvonne DixonLynn GalePaul GascoyneTarif GhaziSam GibsonYveline HandsGunnar HookGill HughesEdward MackenzieHelen MasseyJudith MatthewsDaniel McCristolTony McDonaldRicardo MorenoHelen PhilpottSteven PullarEamon ReganSylvia RoyleRob SheilJohn ShieldsAndy SilverNadia Smith de Neckledoff,John SpinettoRichard SweetIan WoollandIf you would like informationregardingclass locations,please contactthe Tse Qigong CentreTse Qigong CentrePO Box 116Manchester M20 3YNTel. 0161 929 4485Fax. 0161 929 4489Email. info@qimagazine.comQi Magazine 28
