Cardinal Shan's dialogue of religion is based on his view of spirituality. Ever since 1960s, Cardinal Shan has been devoted to the cultivation of spirituality. As he mentions particularly, his cultivation of spirituality is founded on singularity, eternity, and infinity, which is the way he cultivates his character and behavior. Cardinal Shan is a humble and modest person who loves to compliment people. He has great expectation from Fu Jen Catholic University and Fu Jen Catholic University Hospital; he believes that Fu Jen, as a Catholic University, should uphold the spirit of Catholicism and serve people in the spirit of Christ, that is, loving people with the love of Christ. This is the spirit we see on his tombstone: "Born in Christ, Lived in Christ, Died in Christ, Belonged to Christ."
