Ask the Youths!

Searching for answers to Taoist beliefs, traditions and practices?

You may consult our youth Taoist priests here!

It is always difficult to verify the authenticity of Taoist priests on the Internet. Many may provide seemingly ‘great’ answers and make false claims. Some boasted abilities and skills comparable to those Superheroes you watch on TV. Others painted images of ‘Taoism’ that is full of superstitions, myths, legends and paranormal activities. We hope to provide a platform for seekers of the Dao to better understand and appreciate Taoism.

Our Youth Masters

Master Chung, Master Liu, and Master Chin practiced the Taoist scriptures and rituals since their teenage years. They are all ordained at the age of 18 at Hiang Tong Keng Temple in Tampines, Republic of Singapore. They all practice under distinguished Hong Kong Taoist priest, Master Leung Tak Wah. They are active in promoting inter-faith and intra-faith engagements in Singapore and abroad. They were featured numerous times on the Straits Times and other print and broadcast media. Although they are young, they received proper training and guidance. All of them have at least 5-10 years of experience.

We are searching for like-minded people, especially youths and young adults, who are keen to practice the orthodox Taoist scriptures and rituals! Join us now! Kindly contact Master Chung at chung@weiyi.sg to find out more!
