The Secret Manual of Qimen Dunjia: understand the mysteries of Qimen Dunjia divination through playing mahjong.
It was raining heavily back home today, so Sunday afternoon’s mahjong game was optional.
I did a divination a little after 6 a.m. The predicted win or loss was 9, but the actual result was 6.
Looking at this reading, I felt that either playing or not playing would be fine. The configuration in Palace 6 was very poor: Geng over Xin, the White Tiger Drying Configuration. According to this configuration, long-distance travel brings broken vehicles and dead horses, seeking wealth is even more inauspicious, and all kinds of misfortune may occur.
If I went by this configuration, I shouldn’t play.
The Nine Heavens magnifies the good and bad fortunes in a palace.
Fortunately, there was a Life Gate. Although we have now entered the Dinghai month, Earth is still in season.
Taking everything into account, there was both good and bad. Looking at the overall picture, I was going to lose money.
I was winning at first in the afternoon, but then started losing. I lost all the 38 yuan of pocket money I’d brought. I won some back in the last few games, but ultimately lost 16 yuan. You can see this number in the reading.
Interestingly, I actually lost 15 yuan today, but one yuan fell into the mahjong table, so the loss was still 16 yuan.
After I got home, the following is my after-the-fact analysis.
I won the first hand, with one 10,000-point win; overall, I was up 12 in the first round.
I lost the second, third, and fourth hands. The sequence was 9, 2, 7, 6.
Why was the configuration in Palace 6 so poor, yet I didn’t lose much in the end?
One reason was the Life Gate; the other was that it was accompanied by the Chief.
But the real secret is that I play mahjong for fun. I spend a week at home listening to Buddhist teachings, but I still have some old habits and want to have a little fun. I don’t play mahjong to win or lose money; I simply do it to relax.
The stakes are the key to this divination.
In the kind of mahjong we play, an individual’s maximum win or loss is within 200 yuan. Losing up to 200 yuan won’t affect my finances or my mood, and I play once a week.
So when doing divinations for clients, you need to ask them clearly: How much control do you have over this undertaking? If it fails, how much will it affect your life?
If you’re going all in, the configuration in the palace needs to be very auspicious for you to proceed.
But if failure wouldn’t matter, and the loss would be less than 1% of what you can afford, then even when a palace contains both good and bad signs, the client can still go ahead and gain the experience.
Why do I say this?
Take my reading today, for example. I lost money, but I was very happy. Playing mahjong brings me joy, and I was able to notice my own delusions. Overall, I grew from the experience, and that means far more than winning or losing.
When people come to us for a divination, it’s because they really want to do something. If we don’t let them give it a try, few people will be able to restrain themselves.
Finally, I’m grateful to my family for looking after the children so I could play mahjong in peace all afternoon.
I’m also grateful to my beloved car for getting me around safely and keeping me out of the wind and rain.
May everyone be healthy and happy, encounter wise spiritual friends, be free of worries, and return to their true nature.
