SO HAPPY TO SEE CHEE TONG GETTING THE RECOGNITION HE DESERVES, I THINK HE IS TRULY INSPIRATIONAL TO FUTURE GENERATIONS AND NOW

[lecherhao]

He is so knowledgeable at such a young age. So happy that we have young people who are willing to continue tradition and cilture.

As a Buddhist this is actually new, when I was in primary school I thought Taoist and Buddhist were pretty similar but as I grow older and after watching this video, wow. It's so so so different

[jadenkhor]

It's so refreshing to see younger generation getting into priesthood and committed to teachings of Taoism. And when I say younger I really do mean that, I'm such a fan of chee tong like, he's so Gen Z and the things he says, the way he says it so relatable and the way he explains things it's really as if described by a college kid - both enlightening and fun.

I have enjoyed the priest’s explanation. Always find Taoism very fascinating. Here in Europe, we have quite some books on Tao De Jing. Will definitely love to visit the Taoist temple the next time I visit Asia !

Mazu, so-called sea deity was wokshipped by many followers. I dun't think she will give you gamble luck. But she will help you out in other aspect of life challenges.
