I very much enjoyed your article on the core principles of Feng Shui at http://www.absolutelyfengshui.com/library.php. You cite a book Cai Yuan-Ding 蔡元定, a Song Dynasty Feng Shui expert, wrote a very useful classic called “Fawei Lun” 发微论or “A Discourse on the Gross and the Subtle”. I would like to find this book but am not having any luck googling it. Do you know where I might find a copy? Thanks!

Hi Kevin,
Sorry for the late reply, I have been really busy this year. If you read Gyda’s article in the archive, you will find what you are looking for, at least a brief summary of “Fawei Lun”:

Hi master Choy…
My name is Soraya and I am the web manager of a Brazilian Taijiquan Teaching School [IFTB - Brazilian Taijiquan Teaching Intitute].
Looking for technical content to our blog I have bumped into your article “Fajin in Taijiquan”, at the Shou-Yi website. And since I failled to find an e-mail address to contact you, I am using the comments, here. Please, sorry about that.
We’d like to know If we can get permission to translate your article into Portuguese an post it on our page [giving all the proper credit, of course!].
Just to let you know a little bit about us, the IFTB is an Institute which forms Taijiquan teachers here in Brasilia [Brasil], and we are associated to the World Chen Xiaowang Taijiquan Association [WCTA-BRASIL], our partner in many Taiji events and seminars here and abroad. A China Trip that included a Chen Taiji Seminar with GM Chen in Chenjiagou, last March, was one of them.
Well… that’s it… I hope to hear from you soon!
Best regards…

Hi Soraya,
We are “Tong Dao” (one who walks the same Way) so you are welcome to use the article and translate it into Portuguese, please say hello to Master Chen next time you see him. I also have an article on Dantian Rotation which appeared in the latest issue (Summer 2011) of the Tai Chi Magazine; you might find it also interesting because again I was quoting many things Master Chen taught me.
Best Regards,
Howard Choy

Thanks, Master Choy! The pleasure will be ours!
And your are right… The article about “Dantian Rotation” it is very interesting indeed! And we would like translating it too. But unfortunately we don’t have access to the T’ai Chi Magazine, and I could not find the text elsewhere. Can you help us with it?
And I would like to ask for an e-mail address, in order to send you the links of the translated articles, as soon as we post it.
Hope to hear from you soon…
Best regards!

Hello,
My name is Angela and I have been given your book, ‘Qigong, Feng Shui for the Body’. I am finding it very interesting but am concerned that I may not be performing some of the exercises correctly. I was wondering if you have any videos of the exercises which you teach in the book?
Thankyou very much,
Angela

Master Choi… Good morning! How are doing? Hope you are sound and well…
Have you checked our website for the translation into portuguese of ““Fajin in Taijiquan”? Our students just loved it and just keep asking for more!
Therefore… I am contacting you again in order to ask you permission to translate another article of yours: “Taijiquan and Qi Conection” [http://www.shou-yi.org/taijiquan/taijiquan-and-qi-connection]. And to see if you can send me the other one about “Dantian Rotation”.
I’d like to thake this chance also, to wish you, and your family, a Merry, Merry Chistmas, and a bright 2012!!
Best regards…

Greetings Master Choi, I would deeply appreciate it if you could answer a few questions for me regarding Choy Lay Fut lineage. I read a chapter out of Chan Yong Fa’s family records that you translated and just wanted a few of your opinions. If you have any time to dialog with one or 2 emails, I would be most grateful. With utmost respect,
