2023年 2月26日Daisuke San品酒会

国际品酒大师大辅先生(Daisuke San)与简董,2月26日为云龙子的客户提供一个愉悦的下午, 品酒会以珍藏美酒配云大师的风水画。 当天的4款佳酿都是产自南半球(Southern Hemisphere), 4幅云大师的风水画选自廊外有画峇厘专辑 (Art Beyond Museum Bali Edition)。峇厘专辑里面一共展示了8幅风水画和书法, 还在陆续拍摄当中, 那就让我们通过美酒品味这些画作。



leeuwin estate art series chardonnay 2014

分享2014年西澳州玛格利特河露纹酒庄艺术系列100%霞多丽白葡萄酒, 散发着蜜瓜, 杏, 柑橘, 葡萄柚,番石榴以及矿物木质气息, 入口果香馥郁, 酸度高, 并伴有蜂蜜的风味, 回味愉悦而悠长。


Leeuwin Estate是40 years酒庄, 由Denis 和 Tricia Horgan, Robert Mondavi合作建于1973, 在此之前1970年代到80年代, 澳洲的酒并不出名, 人们认为那只是酒吧喝的酒。玛格丽特河是澳洲西部靠近Perth的著名的产酒地, 西澳炎热干旱的夏天和温和的冬季让葡萄浓郁, 有丰富果香。

Chardonnay是一种专门用来酿白葡萄酒的青皮葡萄, 以它命名澳洲最盛产的永恒的酒, 象征澳洲的酒享誉世界。通常见到白葡萄酒产自2019, 2020, 2021年份, 人们喝白葡萄酒是为了享受它的新鲜度, 通常1-3年就可以喝了, 超过3年就是陈酿。 更高品质的酒才值得继续保存下去, 9年在白葡萄酒中是非常久了。


年份小的白葡萄酒有非常清新的柑橘柠檬香, 年份稍久的酒有桃子, 菠萝, 蜜瓜, 百香果的味道, 颜色方面年份少的白葡萄酒是柠檬皮的浅黄色, 年份稍大是比较深的黄, 直至啤酒的金色。这瓶酒9年颜色还是柠檬黄, 说明它可以再放多5-10年, 还有升值的空间。时间越长酒的层次就越丰富, 10年后可能会有百香果的气味。画也一样, 时间越长画的价值和主人的富裕程度也增长, 这就是艺术的生命。 我们将画作收藏越久, 身边的友谊和爱也会在我们身边长存。


黄鹤永胜-Yellow Crane with Everlasting Victory SGD128,868

一幅拥有无限财富的黄鹤, 云大师用英文和中文写的祈祷文在背景的天空像雨一下落下, 为你带来沐浴在富裕中的祝福, 这些一行一行的祈祷文各种颜色如同彩虹, 让鹤周围的牡丹竞相开放, 鹤本身也被染成彩虹色, 如同它自己的梦境。鹤的姿态是弯曲颈项成为一个8字, 并且看向自己。 8象征无限, 具有非常强劲的能量。同时拥有充满活力和永恒两个元素非常不容易, 因为活力通常不会持久。如果你需要持久的热情和活力, 这幅画是好选择。


Meerlust rubicon 2017

rubicon是南非的波爾多混釀的先驱, 它的颜色是明亮的红宝石色, 我们能闻到黑醋栗, 李子, 樱桃, 黑胡椒, 白胡椒, 回味时有木质香气稍辣。年轻, 可以开始做一些事情, 可以慢慢成长。酒的酸度也是非常重要的, 不然会非常闷。Meerlust酒庄在1756年在南非西南部建立, 气候和圣多拉菲酒庄(Château Lafite)非常相似, rubicon作为波爾多的品牌则始于1980年。在此之前人们并不相信波爾多的品牌能够在南非如此成功。


rubicon的名字来自意大利中部的一条河, 公元前49年, 罗马帝国的凯撒大帝 (Julius Caesar) 为扩张帝国版图, 做了一个重大决定, 跨过这条河。酿红酒的历史可以追溯到距今10,000年亚美尼亚,土耳其, 6,000年前在以色列, 黎巴嫩等地中海国家流行, 距今2,000多年在意大利技术提升了, 罗马帝国向现在的法国, 英国扩张的时候, 将它带来欧洲, 16世纪欧洲人发现南非, 阿根廷等殖民地, 也为当地带来酿酒技术, 后来红酒又出现在新世界, 包括美国, 新西兰, 澳洲等等。


1年可能种不出葡萄, 2年种出的等级还是不够好, 3年可能种出来了但并不适合酿酒, 4, 5年也许才会种出适合酿酒的葡萄。 5年在酿酒行业并不算很长的时间, 但这瓶酒象征了大决定, 它本身那么热烈, 精力充沛。


百鹤贺寿 A Hundred Cranes Celebrating Longevity SGD 68,868

这幅风水书法背景里面的红色圈圈是胭脂(Rouge), 象征松树 (Pinetree), 如果你去过中国安徽黄山, 一定会看到奇石松柏, 松树从不同的险峻地方长出来, 却都向上生长, 可以生长千百年。


松树, 象征顽强的生命力, 长寿。在黑暗中松树纹不见了, 看到的是龙鳞纹, 神龙见首不见尾, 虽然看不到龙, 可是龙的力量在后面支持你。百鹤贺寿是一个里程碑, 去年云大师生日有一幅有50只鹤的画贺寿。


在黑暗中能够看到笔画很有力量, 向外伸展然后又向上延伸, 很多只鹤生机勃勃展翅欲飞。就像馆里得有些客户想要退休, 但2年后回来重新开启一个行业, 这样的蜕变就像云大师在2011年引退, 专心于艺术, 创造了很多艺术奇迹, 2017年在ION举办第一次画展。这幅风水书法属于第5个系列的风水书法, 阴阳平衡, 还是旧的价钱。画中蓝色的部分是由香槟喷洒在画中的, 复制品不会得到相同的能量。


Catena Zapata Nicolás Catena Zapata 2016

来自阿根廷Mendoza的波爾多品牌, 是阿根廷的酿酒行业的先驱。特别在阿根廷的赤霞珠 - 馬爾貝克(Cabernet Sauvignon 60% - Malbec 30%), Malbec 在200年前用在波爾多酒, 但现在很少使用因为它太强烈了。从一开始就散发着来自南美洲的热情, 浓缩, 更多水果香气。白天的日照强烈, 让葡萄的糖份变低, 晚上温度降低让葡萄酸度变化得非常好, 所以酒的颜色深石榴红。闻起来像黑醋栗, 黑樱桃, 李子, 坚果和烘烤松木的味道。入口比较厚重, 整体的酸度平衡的很好, 匀称的力量感。 回味会有一点酸,味道非常有深度, 可以保存10年或更久, 保存期非常长, 著名的酒评人Robert Parker说这款酒非常像圣多拉菲Château Lafite。


Catena 家族300多年前从意大利来到阿根廷, 拥有的酒庄Bodega Catena Zapata, 只生产高级酒。Nicolás Catena Zapata是现任拥有者名字。


鹤骨松姿 Strength of Crane, Stance of Pine SGD 38,868

我们都知道鹤很强壮, 有风骨。所以有"骨气"一说, 这也是鹤的品格。鹤站在松树上的姿态, 意味着再难的局势, 你都能居上游。这幅书法特别之处在严肃的紫, 蓝, 绿色在背景中很激烈的碰撞, 就像一个非常有经验的, 成熟有智慧的人非常清楚自己所处的位置和目标。


TorbreckRunRig 2006

西拉(Shariz/Syrah)已是澳大利亚的标志酒款,无人能出其右!通常用老葡萄树结的上好的果子来酿造。南澳的巴羅莎山谷(Barossa Valley) 是著名的产酒区, 有温暖的地中海气候, 炎热干旱的夏季, 雨水少。位于那里的Torbreck 酒庄由David Powell建于1994年。用于酿制西拉的葡萄树來源80到125年的老葡萄树, 葡萄树可以追溯到1992年当他在Rockford工作, 开始清理发现一些地区的老葡萄树的时候。尽管用心的照顾葡萄树, 但是干式种植结果率非常低 (low yields), 优点是酿的酒层次丰富, 浓郁, 酒香与众不同。Daisuke San 选这瓶酒配画因为让他想起黄色水果, 芒果, 桃, 还有大地气息。 颜色是深宝石红, 闻起来有木质香气,显著的是大地的气息, 蘑菇, 松露, 土地的味道, 水果香在后面, 伴随着黑色水果, 巧克力味, 口感浓郁顺滑浓厚。 这款酒距今17年, 快要20年了, 世上存在的数量越来越少了!


黄鹤永胜-Yellow Crane of Everlasting Victory SGD 68,868

属于黄鹤永胜系列, 用浓厚的金边勾画出鹤, 鹤的颜色和形态不尽相同, 鹤在牡丹中休憩, 非常安静温暖的。 背景用绿, 浅蓝, 深蓝, 褐色, 在地上休息的鹤让人想到有时需要静下来才可以更好的与能量连接。当你有能力有眼界的时候, 以往的胜利只是你接下来人生的序篇。鹤身体也是青绿色, 像一个苹果, 成为别人眼中的苹果是非常美好的祝福。 风水馆有的客户在45岁时还能开启新的事业, 每天醒来都是崭新的一天, 觉得自己仍然是青苹果, 还有很多美好的事要做。


这幅画在黑暗中对比强烈, 鹤冠是红色太阳, 照耀着大地, 非常明亮和身体形成对比, 好像日和月。白天看不到的祈祷文在夜晚非常明显, 从天空倾泻而下, 夜晚很精彩, 不要小看一个安静的人, 也许他在他能感受的世界里得到很多祝福。

他也是我们《廊外有画》的合作伙伴



来和我们一起欢庆胜利吧!

希望以后能再次邀请大辅先生过来举办多一个品酒会, 记得到时跟Cola预约81378024。

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Rooster 🐓: Acalanatha Bodhisattva 不动尊菩萨

As the name suggests, Acalanatha Bodhisattva 不动尊菩萨 represents strong and firm determination ("不动" = unwavering). Through his angry and fiery fierceness, he scares away your doubts, obstacles, bad energy.


Acalanatha 不动尊菩萨 is also a fighter, a warrior. And actually, he is the wrathful manifestation 忿怒化身 of Vairocana Buddha 大日如来 (the BOSS, remember?).




Vairocana 大日如来 represents the great sun, truth and order. We have a saying in Chinese: 佛都有火 -- even the Buddha will have fire (get angry). And that's when Acalanatha 不动尊菩萨 manifests. He is the warrior, the steadfast guardian. He is the wrathful manifestation. He is the FIRE.


Legend has it that Acalanatha 不动尊菩萨 trampled on the heads of those who arrogantly reject the truths and compassion of Vairocana 大日如来, subduing them, restoring order to the universe.


Sometimes, when some people cannot accept truth and logic, the FIRE must burn.

For the Lotus version, that's why we carved mountains behind Acalanatha Bodhisattva 不动尊菩萨. Steady as a mountain. Steadfast. Strong.


Worthy to take note, the peacock (upgraded-Rooster), the main subject-matter of Master Yun's fengshui paintings, has a similar meaning as the Acalanatha Bodhisattva 不动尊菩萨.

The peacock is compared to the Bodhisattva path (in "The Wheel of Sharp Weapons"《修心利刃轮》), when one upholds the high standards and integrity and not be moved by mediocrity and evils.


May those who receive blessings (and protection!) from Acalanatha 不动尊菩萨 gain worthy strong benefactors that will fight and win your wars, and be blessed with unwavering success of high standards.

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Dog 🐶 and Pig 🐖: Amitabha Buddha 阿弥陀佛

If Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛 (zodiac Guardian for those born in the year of Goat and Monkey) is the ultimate form, like the Chairman or the big boss, then Amitabha 阿弥陀佛 is the CEO. He is the master of "Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss 西方极乐世界".


"Wait. There's more than ONE Buddha?" When we started talking about the zodiac Guardians, this was one of the FAQs.

Yes. There is more than one Buddha. Long story.

That's why, hopefully, through the connection with serial dramas, more well-known tales and classics, and linking them to a corporate hierarchy (Chairman, CEO...), we can recognize them better.


Amitabha 阿弥陀佛 was the big boss who set the whole "Journey to the West"《西游记》in motion. He is also the boss of the many Bodhisattvas we talked about, Guan Yin 观音, Manjusri 文殊菩萨, Samantabhadra 普贤菩萨, Mahasthamaprapta 大势至菩萨...


Is he the same one who subdued the Monkey King 孙悟空 and banished him under the Five Finger Mountain 五指山?

Yes. Same Buddha.


When we say: 逃不出我的五指山 (can't escape from my control/palm/five-finger-mountain), we are referring to this specific episode.
Amitabha 阿弥陀佛 is the leader, and he vows to elevate people to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, a realm of "Immeasurable Light and Life 无量寿、无量光".


For the Lotus version, you will see that the background is full of "The Wheel of the Law (dharmachakra) 法轮". It represents many things, of which: the path and direction to a blissful life.




May those who receive blessings from Amitabha 阿弥陀佛 be blessed immeasurably, and never let a worthy opportunity slip from your hand.

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Goat 🐐 and Monkey 🐒: Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛

If you are born in the year of Goat or Monkey, your Guardian Buddha is, what I would say for simplicity sake, the BOSS: the Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛.


And if you find the Boss's name familiar, you might be recalling movie "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons"《西游·降魔篇》(2013), directed by Stephen Chow 周星驰. In which during the "final boss scene", Tripitaka 唐三藏 called upon the Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛 to subdue the Monkey King 孙悟空.


One hand. SMASH.

We see the same SUPERPOWER at the end of 2004's《功夫》(Kung Fu Hustle).


The 大招. The killer-combo.

Vairocana 大日如来 and his "Buddha's Divine Palm 如来神掌".


The one hand that subdues evil, and returns light and justice to the universe.


His name refers to the sun 太阳. And that's why, for the Lotus version, the rays of the sun are his aura.

Many a times, we really need the power of the great sun to chase away darkness, illnesses, evils.


May those who receive blessings from the Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛 achieve wealth and success as powerful as the sun.

May you also achieve your grand ambitions swiftly and gloriously.

2023 新春庆典之龙凰天尊

来临的农历新年庆典将在2月18日晚上6:08分在旺财馆举行,这将是庆祝八运最后一个农历新年, 为九运做准备。九运是180年一次的大运, 也是重新布局, 开启新篇章的大好时机, 可以使人身心成就, 突飞猛进。


在这充满变化的一年, 云大师强调了"跃"字尤为重要。跃, 也为躍, 篆字从鸟而来, 描写了鸟的脚和膝盖跳起前的形态, 捕捉了鸟弯下身蓄力的一瞬。要跳得高, 身体需要弯到比平时更低, 跳起才能达到另一个水平, 这是借大地的力。金庸先生曾写杨过向小龙女学一种功夫"天罗地网势", 麻雀跳跃而行, 手掌随麻雀而动, 麻雀借不到力被困在手掌中, 可见借力是非常重要的。


什么样的力最有帮助呢? 古人云:附骥尾而行益显。骥为千里马, 日行千里。苍蝇因附在马尾, 可以远行千里, 也指圣人孔子的学生, 因附先辈或名人之后而成名。

The phoenix dancing in the number of 8 
comprising of both the red and green

当天的庆典中会有两只凤, 云大师会有摸凤尾求取新福的仪式, 大家也可以跟随现场的主持人为自己求取新福。


今年是云大师长城画展两周年, 长城连绵万里, 随山势起伏, 像飞龙在天, 跃龙在渊。


64卦第一卦乾卦中每一爻代表一条龙, 龙在深渊中跃起欲飞, 然后飞龙在天, 成为一条九五至尊的飞龙, 也是最好的龙。


从潜龙到飞翔九天, 升腾之间既是形态不同, 也是心态不同, 人也如是, 需要韬光养晦, 蓄势待发。


传说黄河鲤鱼逆水上溯, 跳过龙门就会变化成龙盘旋升天而去, 比喻平步青云, 飞黄腾达。鱼跃龙门, 象征拼搏奋进, 敢于筑梦, 当突破现状, 梦想也会随之变大。云大师在当天的庆典中会有象征越过龙门的仪式, 敬请期待。

在馆中休息蓄力的神笔龙

许多人都想知道从事什么样的行业最有利或在哪方面创业呢? 行销大师赛斯・高汀建议先难后易的行业, 前面的困难会使不能坚持的竞争对手出局, 将有限的资源留给真正有能力做的人。这种随着时间推移越做越好的行业好像一条跃龙。


他提出” To sell a purple cow”的概念, 除去是一头一般的牛, 还具备了它独特之处。了解了为什么和为谁而做, 因更多的市场变化做出弹性, 让"变"成为永恒不变的目标。这也顺应了属火的九运, 在充满不确定性的机会中胜利。


这次庆典非常旺! 到馆来的见面礼: 一套上等紫菜、红枣和高级党参,现在就联系 Cola报名!


降妖圣火灯柱的91位置所剩不多, 新做的天地连理玉上玉翡翠戒指会优先。

头10本总数最多印章的心经册页,在典礼上会得到云大师九五之尊神笔龙献出的牡丹花加持,累积最多新印章的头12本册页,云大师会在典礼中为你盖章。


这次庆典馆里会让你了解为什么这些宝物在九运很重要:

-风水艺术, 孔雀, 鹤和鹰

-大热门檀香守护神

-五路进财香所剩不多, 如果请购当天云大师会开光, 让您将财运带回家。

-专为九运设计的宏愿元炉


您可以参加幸运抽奖, 礼品是超尊贵全国政协十三届五次会议的精致瓷杯,现在就报名!

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Dragon 🐉 and Snake 🐍: Samantabhadra Bodhisattva 普贤菩萨

The interesting thing about the Lotus version, once again, look closely at the background, is full of footprints. 

And the footprints are imprinted with the Buddhism swastika 卍, symbolizing the auspicious footprints of the Buddha.

Some sources say that a person makes about 35,000 choices daily, both conscious and unconscious ones. Of course, some are more important than others. BUT also we know, life's destiny is an accumulation and tally of good and bad choices. 

Even with great knowledge, one is not definitively certain that a choice is entirely correct. You might have seen others making so terrible choices, but somehow by a twist of fate, the results turned out to be wonderful.

What we can seek, is to be blessed at the steps we take. Every footprint we make on our journey, let it be auspicious, and blessed by amazing energy and luck.

Watch the video and you will know why Samantabhadra Bodhisattva 普贤菩萨 sits on an elephant.

The Buddhism swastika 卍 is pronounced as "wan" is Chinese, which is similar-sounding to "万" (meaning: ten-thousand, plenty, all). "足", which refers to footprints, also means abundance. When your footprint is imprinted with 卍, it means abundance in every solid step you take.


May those who receive blessings from 普贤菩萨 Samantabhadra Bodhisattva be 卍事足 (万事足) abundant in all things.

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Horse 🐎: Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva 大势至菩萨

Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva 大势至菩萨, together with Guan Yin and Amitabha Buddha (Guardian for DOG and PIG), they are the 西方三圣 Holy Trinity of the Western Paradise. 


As such, Mahasthamaprapta 大势至 is often considered as the "third Buddha", right after Guan Yin.


Mahasthamaprapta 大势至菩萨, the name literally means "arrival of the great strength". Because of his ultimate light of wisdom, wherever he goes to, the heavens and earths will shake.

It was said: "When this Bodhisattva walks, all the worlds in the ten directions shake...when this Bodhisattva sits, all kingdoms of seven jewels sway" (“此菩萨行时,十方世界,一切震动……此菩萨坐时,七宝国土,一时动摇”,《观无量寿经》). 
Now that's a true influencer of great power.


That's why the Lotus version has scepters 权杖 carved on the back, representing great strength, great power, great benefactors.


Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva 大势至菩萨 sandalwood is of great importance for the south sector of the house fengshui in 2023. With 
Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva 大势至菩萨 sandalwood around, you will always have the 大势 in the things you do!
