myfs_150494 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Hi Master CecilI am renovting my house and will be discussing the layout with contractor. May Altar table (worship Buddha) is placing at the position as shown in diagramThis position is directed by a Thai Monk quite a number years ago and it is facing the wall of the bed roomI am thinking should I shift the position of reading some of your posting and also I heard that fenshui will change after several number of years, so maybe should change position?1) Can you advise the best position to place the Altar Table?2) THe main door is facing 315 degree North west, if the Altar Table face the piano and directly towards main door is it ok? I saw yr posting that should not place as if god is guarding yr house. My Altar cannot replace at piano position as that position has a kitchen toilet seat behind the wall (though this position facing the living room window)3) Must a Altar Table face window or main door (as what most people thinks)? Is it alright facing the bedroom wall?4) If the master bedroom toilet is behind the Altar table and will be installing the glass shower room (The circle in yellow indicate the showerhead position), is it ok asI read that toilet should not be being the Altar Table. Is it ok as long as the toilet seat is not directly behind the Altar Table?Thank you and Appreciate for your help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Frankly, this should not be taken as a fatal error as in many situations; there are not much choice, here. And furthermore, it depends on the specific type of deity. For example; Guan Gong or also known as Guan Ye; is often placed "guarding" the door; thus, for him or his figurine; facing the door is often the perfect choice!There are still many who the twin guardians of temple deities drawn onto the doors of temples and thus assume that it is similar to the home.There is no right or wrong answers, here. And since these are deities; come-on.. they are not suppose to be "petty" - by right. Of course, it does not mean that we don't give them due respect. Therefore, as humans; we don't like the deity to face the bedroom area. As often, married couples "do some performance" and the deity may end up getting sore eyes of sort.Your attachment is fragemented.. anyway, the location you place or going to place the altar does not seem the best location. Given that as you had said; it shares the same wall as the toilet. In addition, it faces a bedroom (of course the wardrope and it can even "peer" into the bedroom area.The side wall to the left of the altar is not a major issue. So long as the deity is not flushed towards this wall; then it is ok. As placing the figurine too close to this wall does not give it sufficient paranomic view (blocked by the left side wall).
