About CEMACEMAS
In Taiwanese indigenous culture, the term "CEMA" refers to the soul. "CEMACEMAS" is derived from the indigenous languages of Taiwan, denoting the dual nature of the soul. The people believe that a good "CEMA" resides in a person's right hand and an evil "CEMA" in the left. When both coexist, a being can be considered human, highlighting the fine line between good and evil in human nature.
