The two posters were together on the right side of the phallus.

Two images from my visit to the temples of Taipei, Taiwan.
From Jinde Temple. (Left)
From Songshan Fengtian Temple. (Right) It as if you are going to enter another world.
Then really large the word “Explore”. We wanted to emphasize exploring the metaphysical world. There were QR codes to look at the Gay Temple Substack and the Facebook group also. This is the link to the Facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/488974146783225
Then there was a QR code to read about the Gay Temple project.
You can read it here online.
There there was the word “Socialize.” We need to have functions where we socialize.

This is a flyer that I am handing out in Dallas to get people thinking about whether they could be mediums and also some understanding that Gays are already having their religious formations elsewhere.
Below was images of books about LGBT spirit mediums in Thailand.
Going Forward
It was a lot of work to put together these two posters boards and generate the QR codes and make sure they work. The posters fold up so the graphics are protected in storage. So we have all these things for the next event. I am thinking of Pride in Dallas in Sept. I could use help.
everything is really beautiful and well thought. The philosophy is inclusive and deep.
As an Asian American I am living some interesting contradictions between spiritual traditions.
