I'm a Teen, how would I "Feng Shui" my small, cluttered bedroom?

Question by Flow on "Feng Shui":

I've read a few online articles and the one question that is similar to this one off of this same site...but I was wondering if any of you could help me because I'm quite slow when it comes to things like this. My color scheme is black and blue, but a number of things in here (like five shelves) are white. I don't have a lot of room to work with, but I do have about eight days I can work on it. I know the directionality of my room, but the picture charts I found on Google don't help me at all. I would appreciate some help and a few answers of how I can make my room more livable because I'm in here constantly, and I'm almost always stressed out. I would also like to try to get better grades in school, too. So I thought this might help. Thanks for any and all help! And PS, if it helps at all, I'm 15 and a girl.

The main thing about feng shui is to get rid of all the clutter. And I mean all that junk on top of the dresser, any tables, headboard, under a table, visible on an open shelf. You will have to find containers to put all your stuff in out of sight. If there is nowhere to hide stuff (under the bed hidden by a blanket to the floor, or in a closed closet or cabinet) then you should get a bunch of plain containers that all look alike and stack them in a simple stack. You have black and white. That's perfect for feng shui, but you should only use the blue on one or two things. Too much black and blue will be too dark and it will look closed off and confined. When you clear off your space, you can return one, three or five items (always an odd number) in a simple arrangement. Like one bamboo plant, one large interesting-shape rock, and a small painted laquer box. One or two similar books with something on top (a buddah?).

Feng Shui Before & After

This book taps into two powerful trends in American culture: a national passion for home décor and remodeling, and a growing interest in the ancient Chinese art of feng shui. In Feng Shui Before & After Stephen Skinner has written a comprehensive, practical, hands-on guide to using feng shui to make redecorating choices in any room in a house, from the kitchen to a nursery. The founder of the internationally popular magazine, Feng Shui for Modern Living, Skinner shows how rearranging furniture, a mirror, changing colors, or even hanging a wind chime can restore harmony and maximize the flow of "ch'i", or good energy, to a room. Feng Shui Before & After also explores the feng shui concepts of the "magic square," the ability to discover which sectors of a house relate best to specific areas of a homeowner's life, and the most and least fortunate directions in a room. A perfect balance between a Western demand for reinvention and a timeless Eastern art, this is an essential book for anyone searching for harmony within the walls of his or her own home.

Can Hindu Dharma Survive the atrocities made by terrorists and Chrisitian Conversions?

Question by har3000 on " Dharma ": I am really scared that Hindu Dharma will become similar to Judaism today. The terrorist activities going in India, and conversion by missionaries to Christianity and current generation making fun of Indian culture without understanding it. p.s: I believe in EO too Best Answer: Answer by godrealized Hindus continue remaining scared... but never do anything for the society! In the cosmic system every single human being must enact ones karma... only then can we hope of a better society... better standards of living! Since millennia Hindus always kept waiting... even when attacked brutally! Why? Are Gautama Buddha and Mahatma Gandhi responsible for all this! Mahatma Gandhi was one... Bhagat Singh was one... and so was Chhatrapati Shivaji! All these human beings did their duty... never waiting for one to come and improve the society! But Hindus keep waiting for Bhagwan Kalki... an Avatar of the present era (God manifest in human form).
