Controversy Arises as Guan Sheng Emperor Reportedly 'Marries' Mazu and Changes Her Name, Causing Dispute Among Two Sects of Believers in Taiwan

Reported 11 months ago

Recently, an image of a temple fair poster circulated online, claiming that the Guan Sheng Emperor of Tainan's Yuzhi Wuxuantan will 'marry' the Heavenly Empress of Beishang-wei Luer Men Tianhou Temple, which has a history of over 360 years. The temple altered the name of the Heavenly Empress to 'Heavenly Guan Saint Mother' on the poster, sparking anger among followers for seemingly changing her identity. Despite the temple's explanation that it was a symbolic act during a temple activity, controversy continued, leading to the Tianhou Temple issuing a statement clarifying that the incident was not related to any marriage ceremony.
