Will hanging wind chimes stop bad qi from harming me?
No, it will not stop bad qi. (This is a wrong concept to have about qi as well.) The idea of hanging wind chimes probably comes from ancient China, when the local people believed that the ringing of a bell could reach the world where spirits dwell. Because of this belief, Chinese Buddhist monks had Holy Scriptures embossed on some large temple bells. It is written in certain scriptures that High priests of Buddhism also received ‘feedback’ from spirits that the temple bells had helped them in overcoming sufferings. But hanging wind chimes in and outside of your home– is in fact thought to attract ghosts.
