Posted August 18, 199926 yr Staff A Pair of Keiloon or Fu Temple Dogs Hi, Thank you, Glyn, for sending me a private email to inform me that the Keiloon resembles a Fu Fu Dog. Earlier this morning, prior to heading to work, I passed by the memorial dedicated to Lim Bo Seng, a renowned World War II hero from Singapore. The memorial featured the Keiloon positioned in various `compass' directions, serving as guardians. I have observed a similar Keiloon at my grandfather's grave, where it stands guard on both sides. The Keiloon figurine is not associated with Feng Shui but is more aligned with Chinese customs. In my view, it would be more appropriate for this `creature' to protect a Yin location, such as a grave or memorial site, rather than a residence or office. The more commonly used figurines for homes are the Fu Fu dogs, placed on either side of the pillars at the entrance gate. Warmest Regards, Cecil Quote On 8/15/99 12:38:20 PM, Anonymous wrote: Dear cecil, What is a Keiloon? Thanks.
