Tai Ji Men’s Call to Conscience
In Tai Ji Men, I learned what love and peace in action really mean. I also learn how to resist injustice with good conscience.
Heart-to-Heart Communication, Sustainable Development, and Tai Ji Men
Both my practice as a Tai Ji Men dizi and my experience in the medical field told me that honest and sympathetic dialogue is crucial. This rule was not followed in the Tai Ji Men case.
