When buying a house or consulting a feng shui master, many people pay special attention to the issue of "road intersections" and often hear about some long-standing remedies.
There is a folk saying that if a house faces a road directly (a "road clash"), you can place a stone with the words "Taishan Shigandang" written on it to ward off evil spirits.
Because people believe it has great power and can suppress or ward off any bad luck or disasters.
This saying is said to originate from Taoism – Mount Tai in the East.
Because Mount Tai is considered to have strong spiritual energy and the power to suppress evil spirits, people add the words "Mount Tai" to the stone tablets and use them to ward off evil and bring good fortune.
Whether it is truly effective remains a matter of debate and requires further investigation.
