"The heritages of those local religions have been passed down by generations. Whereas in China you may see beautiful temples, there may be no incense and the gods are not worshipped anymore and the religious activities inside the temples are long-gone. As far as Buddhism is concerned, Taiwan is one of the few places in the world where one can find historical temples that offer English instruction in meditation," Su said.
"Major temples, such as Buddhist Light (佛光山), offer a whole course of Buddhist meditation in English, including reading Buddhist Scripture and kungfu. ... Those who are interested in oriental religions should really come to Taiwan."
