1.馬吉祥月祈福 Celebrating an auspicious time
First up today, we go to a Tzu Chi gathering in Batu Pahat, of Malaysia”s Johor State, where volunteers promoted the seventh lunar month - commonly known as Ghost Month - as a month of filial piety and gratitude instead. In traditional Chinese culture, Ghost Month is a time when spirits roam the earth, and people burn ghost money and make food offerings to appease them. However, from Tzu Chi”s perspective, the month should be marked by honoring your parents and giving up eating meat. We joined the gathering in Malaysia, to see how the message was delivered.
節目一開始，首先到馬來西亞峇株巴轄，有一場吉祥月祈福晚會，農曆七月是俗稱的鬼月，是孝親月也是感恩月，傳統文化裡，農曆七月是孤魂遊蕩的時間，人類會已焚燒紙錢以及食物祭祀來撫慰它們，其實在慈濟的觀點上，希望大眾不要大肆鋪張，以齋戒來紀念，帶大家到馬來西亞去看看農曆七月的真正由來和意義。
2.香港齋戒 Eating vegi for 7th lunar month
Meanwhile over in Hong Kong, to persuade people to regard Ghost Month as a ”special cultural period” Tzu Chi volunteers held a 6-day blessing event. Every day, 120 residents were invited to enjoy a meatless meal, and learn more about becoming a vegetarian. Volunteers said they hoped Hong Kongers would be inspired to start eating vegetarian at home.
在香港為了宣導正信正念，香港慈濟人一連六天舉辦齋戒祈福會，每天邀請一百二十位社區大德走進會所體會素食之美，志工表示也藉由齋戒來普渡眾生。
《 靜思語 》
Minimize our desires to naught and maximize our love to fill the universe.
貪欲縮小到零點，愛心擴大遍虛空。
3.銀行不存錢(1)食物銀行 Roll up for the bread bank
Starting today, we”ll be bringing you a series of feature reports on banks with a difference in Taiwan, starting with a food bank. Taiwan”s version of the ”Youth Peace Corps” has been running a bread bank for 13 years. Everyday, volunteers go around local bakeries who have joined the program, to collect unsold bread, and give it to the poor.
今天節目一開始帶大家看看，在台灣有許多特殊的銀行，不過看的是食物銀行的報導，13年前，青年和平團在台灣發起食物銀行，每天和平團的志工會去固定的麵包店，收取店家賣剩下的麵包，幫助貧戶的家庭。
4.馬國諾雅麗莎 Determined to live on in face of illness
After the food bank, we”ll take you to a time bank tomorrow. But back to today, and the small town of Kinarut in Malaysia”s Sabah, where 12-year-old Mor Ahliza started losing the use of her arms and legs two years ago, to the point where now she has become unable to walk or even feed herself. But despite her illness, she has not given up on life. Here”s her story.
食物銀行，之後明天還會帶大家深入報導，不過現在帶大家看位於馬來西亞沙巴州的一個小鎮京那律，12歲的少女兩年前開始病發，手腳的神經系統逐漸失去功能，無法行動更不能自理，不過她並沒有因此放棄生命，來看她的故事。
《 衲履足跡 》 On Dignity & Love 談自愛愛人
Tzu Chi volunteers must strive to look after this world. To do that, it is important to be humble and dignified.
The ability to respect oneself ensures the capacity to love all without prejudice. Only then can harmony be achieved in all human affairs.
全球慈濟人須挑起天下事，不自大但是要自重。要挑大任的人，要先自愛，才能愛天下人，努力達到世事、人事皆圓滿。
5.小巨蛋撤場 Reuse, reduce and recycle ”Water”
The Water Repentance show in Taichung, took place in a huge inflatable dome, by the local Tzu Chi Hospital. After the last show, more than 700 volunteers and workers stayed up the entire night to dismantle everything, and take what could be reused to the Changhua Stadium, for the next leg of the tour.
台中的水懺演繹，在台中慈院旁充氣式小巨蛋舉行，結束之後，七百多位慈濟志工和工作人員徹夜拆除小巨蛋內的舞台，而小巨蛋內的可用資源，將全部運到下一場的水懺現場。
6.彰懺鄭小楹 From luxury to abstinence
As the Water Repentance musical moves to its last destination in Changhua this coming weekend, (CG in) on the 27th and the 28th it will be showing at Changhua Stadium, with volunteers from Nantou, Changhua, Yunlin, and Chiayi making up the cast of 1,008 performers for each of the four shows. (CG out) In our next story, we take you to meet one Tzu Chi volunteer, Zheng Xiaoying(鄭小楹), who is taking part in the Changhua show. Before joining Tzu Chi, she was close to suicide after losing a fortune on a bad investment, but now she has found new meaning to life, beyond luxury goods and designer labels.

7.四川教育交流 Tzu Chi teachers visit Sichuan
Members of Tzu Chi”s Teachers Association in Taiwan are visiting schools built by Tzu Chi in Sichuan, China after the 2008 earthquake. Not only did the teachers take time to share Tzu Chi”s humanistic values with their local counterparts, but they also helped host summer camps, to teach the students about filial piety.
