Dr. Lim about Geomancy

Dr. Jes T.Y. Lim explains in the following text, how he found his way to geomancy:

My grandfather was a very wealthy business man who owned a big armada. He used to deal with cattle all across Asia. When my family lost everything in the war and had to escape to Malaysia, my father was searching for a suitable place to begin a new life with his family. He had the following criterias:

Firstly, a view on the ocean, to be able to receive all goods and opportunities that are wanting to come along, and secondly a good backing by the village. This was the way we began our new life, and this was also the way my consciousness was formed for the importance of the energies in our landscape. 

Places of spiritual energy in nature

Traditionally, we Asians always collect information about a house or building, before moving in, to find out if it used to be a place of luck, fortune, and peace or rather a place of conflicts and disease. In case it can not be avoided to move into an 'unfortunate' place, we get in touch with a taoistic master. They clear the energies and cleanse the space in order to avoid any misfortune.

In case of a disease or death, we carry out particular purification rituals afterwards. There is a rich tradition of taoistic geomancy. Our wise men have perfected this art to true mastership. They put great emphasis on living in harmony with nature and the environment and on using them as a source of strength, joy, and inspiration. Nature offers many places of spiritual energy that have the power to rejuvenate and inspire us. In those places the wise men built their temples and caves of meditation. 

Memories preserved in the earth

I am astonished how the western world – and even modern China – insists to just ignore or even deny the energetic influences of the environment and the old memories that are preserved in buildings and places. In my view, their negative impact on our personal well-being is greatly underestimated. In the event of somebody sleeping on top of an interference field or an underground watercourse for a long period of time, I experienced that neither a doctor nor superficial Feng Shui can help. In cases as such, the knowledge of Tao Geomancy is needed.

It is very noticeable how a place respires, once it is acknowledged and supported to return to its positive original state, working with love and energy. How we humans have trampled on our earth for generations, with our wars, quarrels and pollution, while it is she who carries us and is in need of our love and attention.

I like to share my knowledge of earth-healing by Tao Geomancy with my students, because it is a particularly important aspect of my work to create a good environment for us human beeings.

May many old wounds heal that still lie dormant in the earth!
