Nature Of QuanYuan's Workshop

Question: Greetings, and thank you for taking time to reading this, I being looking and browsing through your web and blog. But I still have question on my mind regarding your course. I can't find any detail information about your course, so I would like to know more about what the teacher is teaching. I read that the teacher is teaching BaZi,

1. Is the course also teaching FengShui with BaZi?

2. How long the courses take?

3. And I wonder is this course conduct in separate modules or just one?

4. Is the course fee shown in the blog for just 1 module or all if the class has separated levels.

Answer: Thanks for inquiring and please note our response: -

1. As at to date, QuanYuan offers BaZi Preparatory Workshop, as an entry level to our curriculum. In other words and unlike other academies, everyone who wishes to study with QuanYuan, would first have to joint our BaZi Preparatory Workshop. Thereafter, students are encouraged to practice with their new found skills and duly follow up with correspondence with the teacher. Later, these students are invited to join in for repeated workshops, to polish their skill further. QuanYuan always believed in the principle of 80% of students are able to gain 20% of knowledge in the first time. With practice, 20% of students are able to gain 80% of knowledge in subsequent workshops. It is these 20% of students that we are able to coach for future workshops such as FengShui.

Therefore, BaZi is the entry level to FengShui. As there is already so much depth to cover for BaZi, the teacher may only touches briefly on the application of BaZi to FengShui during the last day of case study.

2. QuanYuan’s courses are in the format of workshop, meaning we would spend one or two days to deliver the key theories and spend the rest of the days to discuss on real life applications. The final days will be the platform for students to put forth their questions and are duly answered by the respective teacher.

In the case of BaZi, the workshop will stretch for 3 full days, 2 days for fundamental theories and the last day for case study. As you can read from the student’s response, it is always the last day that the teacher would show exactly how the chart is being peeled off layer by layer to reveal the underlying truth which sometimes, may be horrifying in nature. This is the forte of our workshop.

In the case of FengShui, the workshop would be conducted in 2 parts. Part 1 would stress on diagnostic approach while part 2 would stress on prescriptive approach. Each part would stretch for 4 days at a minimum. Again, 2 days for theory and the last 2 days for practical.

3. So far we only have BaZi preparatory workshop. We are planning to have our maiden FengShui preparatory workshop at the end of the year. However, it will only be offered to our invited students. Unlike other academies, our workshops are not made in modules but in session accordance to the progress of our students. We are creating layers of committed practitioners to assist us in our group practice not ad-hoc learners.

4. The course fee shown is for the said workshop only. Students are invited to joint in for subsequent repeated workshops for a nominal fee. Any subsequent workshops will be charged differently as the case may be.

Common Enquiry On BaZi Preparatory Workshop

Question: 

May I know the venue of bazi workshop? Is it at KL or Singapore? What about the medium of instruction? Is it in English or Mandarin? Is this course for beginners or advanced learner? My BaZi understanding is limited based on what I have read from books and blogs. By the way, can I know what is included in the 3 days course example foods, course contents? Hope to hear from you.

Answer: 

The venue is in Malaysia. Click HERE for detail. The medium of instruction is bilingual - English + Mandarin. The primary medium is in English, so is the notes. However for clarification he will add on clarification in mandarin as well. So that you will get the correct nuances. Don't worry, it is not Beijing mandarin.

Ok, to maximize your learning, is better you must at least remember the 12 Chinese character of stem branch. Perhaps now there is still time read up some basic of clashes, combination and so on. That will ease your learning when you join the workshop.

This course straddles between beginner and intermediate. He will go briefly on how the chart is constructed. Since there is so much software available he will not be discussing in detail. However he will concentrate more on the cutting off point. Is good that if you do not have preconceived idea to start with.?

The fee covers coursework and lunch only. We may assist you in lodging within the same hotel. Let me know your preferences example, Twin sharing or single bed and so forth. You will have to arrange for your own transportation.?

Question: 

How much deposit do I need to send to secure a place at RMxxxx?  Actually I am signing up based on the reviews on the webpage. Can you please tell me more about the master's skills? Is this the only module or are there more to come?

Answer: 

As places are limited, we do not collect deposit. Just deposit in the full amount to the account number so provided and sends us the proof of deposit either via email. In the event of course termination for unforeseen reason, you will be refunded in FULL. Payment made will not be refunded unless under reasonable grounds. Refund of 100% will be entertained if the request of refund is made under reasonable grounds before 26 October 2010. Refund of 50% will be entertained if the request of refund is made under reasonable grounds before 26 November 2010. After 26 November 2010, no refund will be entertained.

Master Ng seldom teaches. He practices more then he teaches. So you can say this is the only module. He is only willing to impart knowledge to enable his student to read BaZi for themselves and their family members confidently. Why not stranger or famous personality, because he believes that one is able to match real life event to the chart being read and he wants immediate feedback. With consent he may even go to some sensitive matters revealed from the chart and be discuss in the class. The problem with him, he likes to be challenged. He wants his student to know how he derives his hypotheses. If you want to dwell into theory, this is not the class! If you want to be taught to read BaZi and practice it in a practical sense, then this is it!

He couldn't be bothered, even if you have learned from other masters or being send by other master to sit in. That is his least concerned as in his previous class there were also students from other school. However a note of concerns. What you learn is only for you and you are free to communicate with him about your progress. He touches base with every students of his who eventually upgraded to being FengShui practitioners some under the banner of QuanYuan. There is no fuss about it. Unless, he is comfortable to impart more advance knowledge, then there may be future module. Think about it he only teaches twice a year?. As it is, is already a worth investment compared to Module 4 of the other school.

I truly guess he uses this workshop just to build up affinity with his student rather than just making money. However as he is also from the old school, if the breaches are made by the student themselves either in being scrupulous, dishonest, un respectful and ill intention, then there is only God that such student needs to answer to.

I hope this explanation helps in your decision making.

Between The Pagoda And The Flyingstar

Question:

I had spent a fortune in the FengShui items liked mandarin ducks and PiYao from a shopping Mall in the Klang Valley, after reading the books on the advocacy in placement FengShui. I even bought a jade pagoda the size of torchlight for my son to go to school, hoping that his grade will be improved. However, it ended up nowhere.

So, I was again, reintroduced to a great speaker who speaks during the CNY about astrology and face reading and even spend few thousands in his life courses with empty pages course book, with plenty of other books about FengShui which I had yet to master. But every time, my husband asked, what I had learned, I could only say, FlyingStar and BaZi.

The irony is each time I try to read my Husband chart; I could not able to read it correctly. Similarly so, each time I try to activate the literary star for my son, nothing seems to work? Is there something wrong with me or the pagoda or the FlyingStar?

Answer:

Well, these sorts of complaints are not unusual. It is all in the learning curve. You were introduced to FengShui by someone who is all out to market their products, be it a FengShui object or courses and books. These are products that will NOT make you a master overnight. So, you will continue not able to apply what you had learnt and continue to subscribe for a higher level of courses install to milk you further. Similarly so with the art of placement FengShui where you will continue to buy their merchandise as each of these products has its expiry date and if it is not changed will bring in sheer bad luck for you. Ultimately, you live your life believing that FengShui is all about merchandising and a sole Master who can promise you the world, but not giving you the world.

There is nothing wrong with the pagoda, Flying Star or for the matter, BaZi. The only issue is you are not given the “Key” to apply it effectively. No way, these marketers are going to give it to you as they see you as a milking cow, for their very own prosperity. That is the reason why you do not see the result of your very own application. Next, you will blame it on to yourself as sheer stupidity, as the Master is always right, because they are PERFECT, you are NOT.

Take it as it is at the moment until such time, you have the affinity to meet a genuine master. Stop all that unnecessary investment, which ended up nowhere and it is all with Affinity.

I knew of someone, who has invested her retrenchment benefits, ended up nowhere after going for these courses. What a pity.
