On June 14, in the meeting with Yoon Eun-Do, the chairman of Daesoon Jinrihoe Yeoju headquarters, they asked a lot of questions about cultivation methods of Daesoon Jinrihoe. Master Lee You Kun(李游坤), the president of Taiwan Daoism, asked Yoon by saying “In Taiwan Taoism, belief is more important than practice. I want to learn practical cultivation methods of Daesoon Jinriehoe.” Then chairman Yoon answered “Although I am the head of Daesoon Jinrihoe, I am not regarded as being in the highest position. It is important for us respect each other because we all are in our way of spiritual cultivation. We have to open our minds and communicate well with one another, and cultivate ourselves into Dao while we keep Three Essential Attitudes: Sincerity, Respectfulness, and Faithfulness.
