Feng Shui of Imperial China 2007
China (10th – 17th April 2007) & Tibet (20th – 22nd April 2007)
China Excursion 2007 Daily Coverage
The China Excursion Daily Updates include personal updates from the students as well as the Mastery Academy Team, on-site with Joey Yap on the Excursion.
It's a very brief summary of the powerful learning experience that is the China Excursion Series as seen through the eyes of the students. Although nothing can match the actual experience of being in China amongst the amazing landforms and breathtaking Feng Shui sites, we hope these updates will allow you to share some of the excitement and energy of the China Excursion Series.

And the Excursion begins!
Our first stop for the day: Fa Sing Temple in Hang Zhou. Reputedly founded by the Indian monk, Huili, who’s also credited as the founder of Ling Yin Temple, Fa Sing’s history predates 1,600 years! Joey emphasized that in the yesteryears, many of the formulas were applied for major building constructions…temples were one of those that somehow survived the Cultural Revolution.

 | DAY 3 (12th April 2007) |
Of Immortals & More!
Designed in accordance with the advice of a famous Hong Kong master, it was almost like a `homecoming’ of sorts for some of the participants – who’d been there on previous Excursions. Joey stopped the bus at the entrance to the Luo Cheng (Spiral Formation) ...

The Man Who Made China a World Superpower
Fresh from our respite yesterday, we were raring to see how Feng Shui allowed one man to almost single-handedly transform the world’s most populous nation from an international recluse into the economic and political superpower it is today.

Monumental Feng Shui!
What’s 71m high, has 3m-long fingers, and shoulders 28m broad on either side? It also rises from the confluence of three rivers, and is more than 1,200 years old!.

Dragons in the Clouds
Rising 3,100m above sea level, blessed with cascading waterfalls and bubbling springs, and deeply tinged with a sense of spiritualism, it is no surprise that Mount Emei has been described as the `Beauty Under Heaven’ since ancient times.

The Tibetan Adventure Begins!
With the Mastery Academy banner being `planted’ on Tibetan soil for the 1st time ever, we were initially rather concerned about Tibet’s high altitude location (this place rises some 4,900m above sea level!) but surprisingly, the crisp, cool air only served to buoy our adventurous spirits even higher.

The Oxbridge of Tibet
Depending on whether you fancy Oxford or Cambridge University in England to be fancier; either way, we were privileged enough to take a shot of both educational centers…never mind that they were the Tibetan equivalents of both these world-renowned varsities, and that these Tibetan equivalents were centers of Buddhist academic excellence, instead!

Up, Up & Away!
We’d arrived at our destination - Tibet’s highest peak, which is also home to Namucuo Lake, the world’s highest saltwater lake. At 5,100m above sea level ...
