Taiwan

The main corrupt bureaucrats that have been persecuting Tai Ji Men for more than a quarter of a century in Taiwan are male. Perhaps it is not a coincidence.

Violence against women devotees of new spiritual movements is sometimes perpetrated by the governments themselves. Tai Ji Men female disciples react without losing their joy of living.  

The relationship between violence against women and new religious and spiritual movements is more complicated than some media claim.

An international webinar celebrated Tai Ji Men’s contribution to a world culture of tolerance, and asked tolerance for them in Taiwan.

Tai Ji Men’s spiritual teachings may prove more effective than UN statements in securing peace. Provided one condition is observed.

The path to tolerance has been slowly built through human history. More recently, Dr. Hong and Tai Ji Men decisively contributed to it.

Sometimes, tolerance is appreciated as a value and idea, but when it comes to practice it, it becomes less appealing. Some religious movements learned this the hard way.

Jews in 18th-century Hungary were humiliated and compelled to pay a “tolerance tax” to avoid expulsion. Some bureaucrats treated Tai Ji Men in the same way.
