1.德州林火發放 Helping fire victims in Texas

First up today, as the effects of global warming continue to be felt all around the globe, early this month, days of heat and strong winds caused a severe fire in the US state of Texas. The blaze destroyed 76 houses and severely damaged another 23 in three counties. After some assessments, Tzu Chi volunteers decided to hand out individual awards of 400-600 USD in emergency cash to help a total of 50 families.

節目一開始,地球暖化持續,在全世界各個角落都可以感受到,這個月初在美國德州高溫天氣加上強風造成大火,這裡三個郡有76間房屋全毀,23間嚴重受損,在勘災後,慈濟志工發放四百到六百元現值卡給50戶家庭。


2.南港獨居修屋 Helping senior woman renovate

Tzu Chi volunteers in Taipei, Taiwan, helped a senior resident living alone last weekend. The elderly woman”s house had a broken roof and ceiling which leaked every time it rained. Volunteers fixed the roof, replaced the broken beams with steel frames and even gave the interior a make-over. At the end of the two-day renovation, the elderly woman said she was happy and grateful for Tzu Chi”s help.

台灣台北的慈濟志工,上周末把握機會探訪獨居的老人家,這位阿嬤家裡屋頂壞掉,每次下雨都會淹水,志工們前來修繕屋頂,將壞掉的樑柱改為鋼樑,也將室內重新整理過,在兩天的整修下來,阿嬤很開心,也很感恩慈濟的幫忙。


《 靜思語 》

Make every second count and move forward step by step; think kind thoughts and do good deeds; practice good teachings and share the joy of Dharma with everyone.

分秒不空過,步步踏實過;善念不間斷,好事日日做;妙法時時用,法喜多分享。


3.老師謝謝你(一)許春蘭 Due respect for teachers

Practicing good teachings is appropriate today, because September 28th is Confucius”s birthday - the day when Taiwanese people celebrate Teachers” Day. It”s a time for students to show their respect to their instructors. Coming up, we have a special series of reports, to honor several special teachers, who go above and beyond the call of duty, to make a difference to the lives of their pupils. We start, with the story of Xu Chunlan( 許春蘭), who comes from a poor indigenous family, in southern Taiwan. Not wanting to see young children miss out on an education because of poverty, she quit her teaching job three years ago, to set up an NGO, to care for needs of indigenous families.

今天是9月28號,台灣的教師節,是慶祝孔子的誕辰,也向所有老師表達敬意,我們將為您介紹一群很特別的老師,他們犧牲奉獻,只為了他們的學生,一開始先介紹許春蘭,她出身南台灣貧寒家庭,因為不希望原住民孩子,因家庭經濟因素,失去了求學機會,所以3年前她辭去了教職工作,創辦恆春原住民全人關懷促進協會,幫助貧困原住民家庭。


4.感念師恩(1)游憲章 Honoring a distinguished surgeon

Next we meet Professor Xu Shujian(許書劍), who was not only once the leading surgeon in Taiwan, but also taught many renowned doctors, at National Taiwan University. One of his students, Dr. You Xianzhang(游憲章), the deputy superintendent of Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital, can”t say enough good things about his former professor.

接下來為您介紹許書劍教授,他是台灣外科泰斗,也在台大孕育出許多知名的醫師,他其中的一位學生,台北慈濟醫院副院長游憲章,提到老師,有說不完的感恩與尊重。


5.馬花道交流 Seeing a universe in a flower

The third and final teacher for today is Malaysian volunteer Chen Binghuang, who found new meaning to life after discovering he had cancer. Now, he grasps each and every moment to volunteer. We caught up with him at the Community Education Center in Malacca, where he teaches Zen and the art of flower arrangement.

今天要介紹的第三位老師,是馬來西亞慈濟志工陳炳煌,罹患癌症後,卻發現生命的新意義,他把握分秒來付出,我們來到馬六甲社教中心,看看他和花道班學員分享花藝課程的情形。


《 衲履足跡 》On Etiquette 談禮儀

In school, students should dress properly to show self-respect. When they respect themselves, they will then respect others. Students must learn proper etiquette as part of their education, which will help propagate harmony in their schools and society.

在校園裡,孩子們服裝、儀容整齊,即是自愛、敬人;尊重自己,才能表達對人的敬重。要落實禮儀教育,才能讓整個校園有和、有敬,未來的社會才能祥和。


6.大河劫大甲溪(1) Disaster waiting to happen on R. Dajia?

Managing water resources is an issue that won”t go away in Taiwan. The island”s short and fast-flowing rivers are vulnerable to climate change and natural disasters. Starting today, we”ll be bringing you a series of feature reports on the Dajia River, in central Taiwan - covering the problems of water and soil retention, over-exploitation, and industrial pollution, from the source of the river to its estuary.

水資源是台灣目前重要的議題,台灣河川短而急的特性,面對巨烈的天候變化,造成的災難相當嚴重,從今天開始,大愛新聞就推出大河劫,大甲溪紀實系列報導,一一解析大甲溪所面臨的水土保持,土地超載以及工業廢水汙染等各種問題。
