Save the world from the epidemic with conscience Peace in the World | WPN World People News

H.E. Anthony Thomas Aquinas Carmona, former President of Trinidad and Tobago, Dr. Hong Tao-Tze, H.E. Yusuf Abdulkarim Bucheeriu, Ambassador of Bahrain to the United Nations in Vienna, singed the Declaration of the International Day of Conscience

The new coronavirus is arriving with a vengeance, the variety is more contagious, and the epidemic is raging. People are becoming conscious that we are all living together, tightly connected, and that we need the force of conscience to turn the world around more than ever. Mankind's obsessive pursuit of consumption, fame, and fortune has wreaked havoc on the planet, and a balanced yin-yang philosophy is urgently needed to restore the planet's vitality. From 5 Do’s and 3 Don’ts Preventive measures in 2003 to the current transmission of Prayer for the World on the Internet, Tai Ji Men has been propagating the Gospel of Hope to the world. Facing the natural or man-made disasters, no one can escape. These severe challenges tested our ability to respond and our conscience and honesty. People expect a government that loves and cares for them, so those in power must think of the people and implement reforms with conscience.

Tai Ji Men Cultural Dance embodies the peacock's spirit of "trying all kinds of poisons but releasing fragrance" in the hope of purifying people's hearts.

Global pandemic prevention requires total mobilization.

Save the pandemic with conscience to have butterfly effect of goodness

The new coronavirus epidemic has devastated the world. While countries are struggling to find a solution, the ferocious attack of mutated virus seems unstoppable. Tai Ji Men, an ancient menpai of qigong, martial arts and self-cultivation, released a preventive measure and a video of 5 Do’s and 3 Don’ts and 6 tips on Internet. In response to the outbreak of Delta virus in 2021, Tai Ji Men has recently released a trilogy of antiviral combat, anti-pandemic battle, and immunity videos that contain the wisdom of balancing body and mind, as well as the importance of conscience.

“With united hearts and conscience, we can overcome the pandemic; Let’s work together to fight the virus; the handy disease preventions tips and follow the five do’s and three don’ts for protection are worth sharing; we humbly beseech Heaven to have mercy on us; may the outbreak end soon, “Dr. Hong, Tao-Tze made the call in early 2020. Dr. Hong encourages his dizi to begin with themselves, to conduct more good deeds, and to utilize positive energy to boost the herd immunity. Dr. Hong instructed his dizi to compile the "Preventive Measures" as early as 2003 by combining ancient health wisdom with modern epidemic prevention concepts, when SARS was raging, which includes "three don’ts": don’t lose your temper, don’t worry, and don’t be anxious; and "five do's": wash your hands, drink more warm water, do more exercise, be happy, and be more careful.

On April 5, 2020, the first United Nations International Day of Conscience was commemorated around the world with a 45-hour live stream on Youtube and Facebook from the earliest to the latest time zone. The "Preventive Measure Handbook" by Tai Ji Men was sent worldwide via the Internet, including to heads of state and all 50 states of the United States. So far, the handbook has been translated into 32 different languages.

Tai Ji Men has published a series of 25 full-page epidemic prevention edition in Taiwan's New Life Newspaper since February 8, 2020, bringing together 71 experts from Tai Ji Men, including Chinese and Western medical veterans and wide-range professionals and specialists from all walk of life. More than 96 percent of village leaders in Taiwan have endorsed the Declaration of Conscience and shared the message of goodness to their villages' residents, resulting in a butterfly effect of goodness.

Gospel to the world

Love and peace trip of Tai Ji Men Shifu and Dizi

When Tai Ji Men Shifu and dizi traveled to the Oceania islands, where global warming is a serious issue, they shared the Movement of An Era of Conscience

Taiwan goes out to welcome the world. In ancient time, Confucius led his followers traveled throughout the world; now, Tai Ji Men Shifu and dizi have toured around the world to promote a culture of peace. They have visited 101 countries to date and earned international acclaim widely. Tai Ji Men was named a Goodwill Ambassador for International Peace by the United States in 2000, and also attended and organized several international conferences, including the UN NGO Conference, the World Summit on Sustainable Development, and the International Conference of Chief Justice in India for 10 times. They have continued the journey of spreading the seeds of conscience throughout the world, influencing various fields such as culture, education, peace, human rights, law, environment etc.

Dr. Hong Dao-Tze, the Tai Ji Men’s Zhangmenren, has received numerous accolades in Austria, India, Italy, and the United States for his words of wisdom, which have inspired people's hearts, and his promotion of the culture of peace with love and conscience around the world. He initiated the movement of an Era of Conscience in 2014. In 2018, he invited ambassadors to the United Nations in New York to the world Summit of Love and Peace to discuss the topic of "Promoting a Culture of Peace with Love and Conscience." In June 2019, the Kingdom of Bahrain proposed a resolution on "Promoting a Culture of Peace with Love and Conscience," which was adopted by the 73rd United Nations General Assembly on July 25 2019. The April 5 was therefore designated as International Day of Conscience. On February 5, 2019, Dr. Hong launched a global campaign of endorsement of the "Declaration of International Day of Conscience" in the United Nations Headquarters in New York. The Declaration has been translated into 53 languages and endorsed by people in 195 countries.

Dr. Massimo Introvigne, Founder and Director of the Center for Studies on New Religions, has studied Tai Ji Men for long time and respected Dr. Hong very much. He cited a vivid story as an analogy “The Buddha befriended with three very rich but spoiled young men. One day the house in which these 3 young men lived caught fire, but they were so spoiled and did not realize the house was on fire, and they would be burned to death. The Buddha tries to figure out how to save these young men and he realized talking to them is not useful. They would simply not understand. So the Buddha sent three very beautiful chariots to attract these three young men to board the chariot and leave the burning house.” “The young men didn't realize the house was on fire, but they liked the chariot, so they got on it and get saved.” Introvigne emphasized: "Our world is on fire, there are a lot of fires and smoke, and we are seriously to die, but we don't realize it. Even if someone told us, we wouldn't understand, and that is the mission of Dr. Hung, Tai Ji Men and FOWPAL.” “I believe that’s the lesson of International Day of Conscience; that’s the lesson of Tai Ji Men and I thank you, Dr. Hong, for offering us the chariot so that we can all board it and be saved from the house on fire, which is our world."

Its contributions are remarkable!”

Mr. Chen, Sui-Bian, the 10th and 11th President, praised:
Tai Ji Men is an ancient school of Qigong martial arts, where Masters and disciples are passed down from generation to generation, like a warm and welcoming family. Everyone in Tai Ji Men has good health and spirit, full of energy.

They also engaged in culture exchanges to promote love and peace across the five continents.”

Mr. Ma, Ying-Jiou, the 12th and 13th President of Taiwan, said, “Every time we see Tai Ji Men, we see energy, we see warmth, and we see love...

Ms Tsai Ing-Wen, the 14th and 15th President of Taiwan, said, “Under the Zhang-men-ren’s leadership, Tai Ji Men has actively participated in international events, which has facilitated the civil diplomacy and enhanced Taiwan’s global visibility.

Let the world see Taiwan.”

Mr. Ou HungLien, Minister of Foreign Affairs, said, “Tai Ji Men was invited by the Seattle City Government to participate in Seafair Torchlight Parade, one of the top ten festivals in the United States.
