First Imperial Qi-Men-Dun-Jia seminar in Spanish

Note: The following blog was written in Dec. 1, 2006.


I've just finished the first Imperial QMDJ seminar in
Spanish in Mexico City last weekend.

This is probably the first QMDJ in Spanish. It
presents challenge to both the local organizer and me.
He has a heck of time to translate 500+ pages of
materials into Spanish and I've to tackle the
limitation of class duration.

The English version takes 5 days with 8-hours days.
In Mexico, the standard class duration is only 6 hours
(including coffee breaks!). We cannot extend the days
as it will increase tuition costs to students.

In the old days, it took 2-3 years to learn QMDJ. In
modern days, it takes 3 months in Taiwan to learn it.

If I factor in the time used by the translator, the
actual class time will be 50% of the English version.

So I am forced to put more critical info in written
form and let students read at their leisure.
Normally, most teachers only teach the important info
verbally in class to combat piracy. I've also designed
new learning aids and cheat sheets for accelerated
learning.

I've designed a "Magic Translation Ruler" that enable
students to translate QMDJ terms in a flash-- to find
out the elemental nature, auspiciousness of each
element and if 9-stars, 8-gates and 9-stems are fu-yin
or fan-yin.

I've taught a hi-speed method of finding out
day-charts. It takes as little as 30 seconds to find
the chart once the day stem and branch (binomial) is
known.

My Imperial QMDJ Luopan version 3 has some new
features: color and number coded for quick
recognition of elemental nature and auspiciousness/
inauspiciousness of each object. In addition to hour
charts, this luopan can also handle day, month and
year pans.

At the back of the IQMDJ luopan, I've put a highly
condensed "cheat sheet" that enables me to cut
instruction time by at least a day or two. Of course,
this really hurts into my bottom line. It also makes
copycats and pirates easier to learn QMDJ too. But
many Mexican students have sacrificed a lot to come to
this class, so I make sure they learn something.

The class is separated into two sessions with a
spacing of 6 weeks. The first 3 days are concentrated
on practical applications and the last 2 days on
theory and chart construction.

This arrangement enables students to test out QMDJ
before coming back for the theory class.

At the end of first session, I've given students 2
months worth of QMDJ charts (both day and hour charts,
about 4800 charts) optimized for
a. Buy/Sell and wealth-pursuit
b. Examination and Interview
c. Grand-opening and campaigning
d. Debt-collection and litigation
e. Construction and promotion
f. Recreation and health

Here are some results reported:

--A student got $5000 off WITHOUT asking when he buy a
property. He uses QMDJ good direction and seating
method.

--A student advised his pal using QMDJ, who were owed
a debt by a dead-beat for a long time. The debtor
suddenly offers him an used car to pay for the debt.
Two weeks later, he replaced the used car with a newer
Honda car-- without being asked.

--A student decided to test debt-collection chart one
morning. So he walked the QMDJ direction with his
dog. When he returned to his house, his partner said
the debtor suddenly called to pay the debt.

--A student advised her land-developer father on how
to walk the QMDJ chart and QMDJ seating method before
meeting a "very bad" customer. He was amazed that he
has sold 4 houses at a pop to this hard-to-deal with
customer without using much effort. He then has sold
2 more houses to 2 separate customers using the same
technique.

The common thread of these examples is that the users
do not expect easy results from difficult people.

The highlight of the class is when I talked about how
to apply QMDJ to soccer matches-- everyone's eyes
looked like $ signs. South Americans are crazy for
soccers. So we may see the Mexican National Soccer
team use QMDJ in the next World Cup match...

But I forgot to talk about how to use QMDJ to cross
the USA border.... may be a QMDJ class for the coyote
and a QMDJ class for USA Border Agents....

At end of the seminar, I gave students 2700 optimized
and task-specific charts, including one year's worth
of wealth-pursing day charts.

I'll be in Europe next few weeks....

Date-selection and Imperial QMDJ

Note: The followings are feedbacks from my students in date-selection and Imperial QMDJ classes.


Dear Ken,

My apologies for not writing for so long - I have been
busy. I am so glad that the date selection course has
been well-received. The true knowledge of date
selection have so far been the exclusive knowledge of
a select few. It has been said that date selection is
even harder than Feng Shui because the more date
selection you know, the fewer good dates are
available. So, it is not a matter of knowing a few
methods, but rather knowing which ones work. For
example, if XKDG says this is a good day, it may still
be a bad day because it is the real san sha. Laying
out this information is vital, so that people do not
hurt themselves by accidentally setting off bad
influences, which can then be very hard to correct.

It is my hypothesis that date selection will turn out
to be even more important the Feng Shui in the modern
day context, as its effects are faster and possibly
more long-lasting. I have known Feng Shui clients who
have suffered from bad Feng Shui because the original
move-in date was wrong. When this happens, the pattern
is imprinted onto the qi-blueprint of the house, and
is very difficult to erase. I will be looking forward
to test your talismans on these houses, and I think
you may be right when you say that this will help to
change the qi-field.

I am very impressed by the sample iLuopan that you
sent me. The simplicity is powerful, but I wonder if
you should be releasing this just yet, because of the
number of people who are copying the QMDJ course
material. I think that this is a very original and
unique approach, but should perhaps only be given to
your seminar participants. Your introduction of QMDJ
to the western world has done a great deal to further
the state of Chinese metaphysics.

Feng Shui, date selection and the Chinese mystical
arts have to be used in conjunction for them to be
effective. It is heartening to see that Feng Shui has
become so well-known. It is time for the remaining
secrets to be revealed. Not that many have the karma
to learn from you, but I know those who do will
benefit from what you have to offer.

Yours truly,

Lee

Postscript:

"Practical Date-Selection" , "4P Bootcamp" and "Daoist
Talismans" c.c. are doing very well.

IQMDJ are backordered so far -- I don't know when to
stop working on it even orders are piling up.

Positive results of using Imperial QMDJ have been reported
from Mexico and elsewhere. Today I got a new one:

"I have used (QMDJ Luopan) now already so many times
for my Husband and he is totally stunned by the
results... only problem now he will not do anything
anymore without consulting me in a matter of QMDJ and
FS.

This is now nearly 6 month ago , Contracts he had what
went dead I activated with QMDJ there are now in full
bloom again , he is so amazed about it.

You must know my Husband never believed much in FS or
in QMDJ or XKDG but since 6 Month he find the whole FS
and QMDJ awesome."
