What does gathering qi mean in the metaphysical world?

In fact, it is a basic requirement of China's traditional "land of geomantic omen".

The accumulation of wind and qi is understood as two parts-one is to hide the wind, that is, to avoid the wind. The second is to gather gas, not just to absorb the gas of heaven and earth.

Kan Yu believes that "qi is scattered in the wind", so he asks to hide the wind. Is afraid of the wind, anger is not easy to gather.

So in the final analysis, the most important thing is the purpose of "gathering gas".

In addition, China's ancient philosophical metaphysics can be summarized in one word: Tao or Qi. We all know Lao Tzu's famous saying: "Tao gives birth to one, two, three and everything." Everything is negative and positive, and it is harmonious. " From the perspective of modern philosophy, this is the simple idea of ancient materialism monism-qi is the starting point of everything.

The movement of Qi, in my opinion, is an order hidden behind everything. Don't be too mysterious. Imagine walking on a sparsely populated street, even though there may be beautiful new shops around you, you will still feel uncomfortable. Why? Because there is no popularity, the gas is scattered but not gathered. Think again, when you are upset in city life, why go to a beautiful place and see a calm lake, so that you will feel relaxed and happy? Because, in the water world, the weather is like a dragon guiding the earth's atmosphere, so the earth surrounded by mountains and rivers is full of "qi".

Therefore, it is very simple to understand China's environmental view-practical rationality. Metaphysics actually pursues "the mystery, the door to all wonderful things" ideologically. Put into practice, some truths are not mysterious, hehe.
