Large family portraits in living rooms "radiate positive energy"




Why do we hang pictures of "fishes" "horses" "serene countryside with flowing rivers" and "deities" in our homes especially in the living room?. Well you guessed right, could be one of the reasons, i.e. :-
* you wish that they would bring on some luck or fortune as propagated by the "feng shui" or "Vashthu" arts,
* your presiding deities will provide you the energy and powers to achieve prosperity or that you simply love the calm and soothing scene in the picture, hoping it would cast the same effects in your home.

You are all right, the above mentioned objects will serve your wish by radiating positive energy within your living space. sometimes it may also produce unexpected effects like what happened to my neighbor few years ago, he bought a batik painting on cloth depicting "demons" in the Ramayana epic, from Bali, he happily framed it and proudly hanged it in his hall. He took it down after about a month suspecting that it was the cause of a sudden increase in the number of instances of quarrels with his wife. Surprisingly it seems that the quarrels tapered off after that.

We should include family portraits in this category of objects that will have an impact on our living environment. A well created large family portrait:-

* will help to cement the love that exist among the family members,
* mend any weak links among family members when you continuously view the image,
* announce to the world what a happy family you have been and continue to be,
* helps to recall and relate to members of the family who are no more with them,
* Captures the beautiful figure, shape, complexion, youthfulness and the bubbling spirit that we had at that point of time,

The above aspects of a beautifully taken Portrait will definitely produce and radiate the positive energy that everyone needs in their living environment, and I personally believe that this energy will be more relevent and powerful than those of the fishes, horses and sailboats, because it is about "us" as we live.

So let us make our family portraits work for us just as any other "feng shui" article that adorns you home now. The results could be miraculous and unexpected.
