The story about the Five Coloured Paper used in Qing Ming:
In ancient China, there was once an Emperor who took over the throne.
After he took over the throne, he visited the location where his father was buried.
Legend was that he looked everywhere but could not find the tomb. He nearly gave up until, one of his loyal aids; asked him to throw the `five coloured paper' (which can also be written on).
He threw the `five coloured paper' and one of them was lodged in the grass field. True enough, it was his father's tomb.
Hence, it was said that from that day onwards, Chinese besides giving offering also placed colourful paper (5 types of colours) and insert them around the grave...
as a mark of respect ....
Warmest Regards,
Cecil

User's Comments Dear Sir, I will be getting my resales flat soon and would like to advise on the feng shui before moving in. I had check in your website and was very impressive of the services provided. Regards -- Thank you for your response Mr. Lee. I really wish you could be somewhere here near manila-philippines so i could have my unit checked. It is such a relief to get your opinion most specially when you mentioned that fengshui should not be so rigid. I also agree with you when you say that little lucky ornaments being promoted by some masters are for business intentions and non-sense. Best regards and more power to you and your team. |
