In Fujian(福建), local volunteers joined winter aid distributions to show their gratitude for all that Tzu Chi has done for them. While in Hubei(湖北), besides handing out aid supplies, doctors were on hand, to conduct a health checkup for senior and disabled residents.

在中國的慈濟志工,持續到偏遠地區愛灑。在福建,當地志工參與發放,回饋他們所收到的關懷;在湖北的志工,也請了醫生到發放現場,守護鄉親的健康。


2. 泰北冬令發放

Moving to Thailand, Kan-cha-na-buri Province, shares a common border with Myanmar and, as a result, this region sees many Burmese labor workers. As life is difficult for many, Bangkok Tzu Chi volunteers arrived in the area with blankets, second-hand clothing and food supplies for the some 1,000 residents.

鏡頭轉到泰國北碧府,它和緬甸交界,因此這裡有很多緬甸籍的勞工,這裡的外籍勞工生活困苦,曼谷慈濟志工帶來毛毯、二手衣,還有各種食物、物資,幫助近一千人。


3. 美街友冬令

In Northern California of the United States, Tzu Chi volunteers from the Stockton liaison office regularly visit the homeless people each month, to bring them hot meals. At this month’s visit, volunteers not only prepared the usual breakfast meal, but also handed relief packs that included hats, gloves and scarves, to help everyone get through the cold winter.

美國北加州的士德頓慈濟志工,每個月都會為街友發放熱騰騰的早餐,而在這個月的探訪,志工們不只準備熱食,也發放愛心包,有帽子、手套與圍巾,幫助大家度過寒冷的冬天。


4. 美療養院耶誕

Staying in Northern California of the United States, Tzu Chi volunteers in San Jose visited senior residents in a local nursing home. With some volunteers bringing their children to put on performances, residents were all smiles.

Also celebrating Christmas are Tzu Chi volunteers, in both Canada and Malaysia. In Canada, volunteers dressed up as Santa to hand out lollies to students at the Vancouver Tzu Chi Academy, while in Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur volunteers brought the festive spirit to refugees at a free clinic.

加拿大跟馬來西亞慈濟志工也在慶祝耶誕節。在加拿大,志工們扮成耶誕老公公,分糖果給溫哥華人文學校的學生;而在馬來西亞,吉隆坡慈濟人則在義診現場,為看診的難民準備一連串的節目。


《 靜思語 》

Gratitude is wisdom; giving is compassion.

感恩是智慧,付出是慈悲。


6. 南非善循環

This year, marks the 20th anniversary of the Tzu Chi Collegiate Youth Association, and to celebrate, Tzu Chings from all around the globe have returned to their spiritual home, in Hualien, to take part in the annual training seminar. Among the participants, are five Tzu Chings from South Africa, all of whom were Tzu Chi’s scholarship recipients in the past.

今年是慈青成立20周年,來自世界各國的慈青,回到了心靈故鄉花蓮,參加海外慈青幹訓營,一同慶祝,其中有五位來自南非的本土慈青,都曾是慈濟助學金的得主。


7. 慈青美東賑災

Following the devastation of Hurricane Sandy on the East Coast of the United States, helping residents recover and rebuild were hundreds of Tzu Chi volunteers, as well as Tzu Chings. At the recent annual Tzu Ching conference in Taiwan, several Tzu Chings shared their experiences of what it was like to live through the hurricane, or help those in need during that difficult time.

歲末之際,賴索托慈濟志工送來定期的糧食物資,給36個照顧戶家庭,這次還多準備了幾樣物資,希望這些生活困苦的家庭能夠歡喜過好年。


9. 蔡天勝借鏡

Tzu Chi volunteer Cai Tiansheng(蔡天勝) and Lin Chaoqing(林朝清) were former drug users who came to a turning point in life, after meeting Tzu Chi. Today, both volunteers are now promoting an anti-drug campaign in schools around Taiwan. Speaking from their experience, the two volunteers hope to use their life stories, to keep children on the right path in life.

慈濟志工蔡天勝、林朝清,曾經因為吸毒入獄服刑,而在遇到慈濟後,生命有了不同的轉折。今天,兩位志工常到各個校園宣導反毒,希望透過親身經驗,鼓勵小朋友走在人生正確的道路上。


《 衲履足跡 》

10. 360傳香

As a tropical climate country, many who travel to Taiwan during the summer holidays, probably have all experienced mosquito bites. And for those who live in Taiwan, they are also constantly finding ways to keep away the insect. In today’s feature report on Taiwan’s unique industries, we meet Chen Rongyi(陳榮一), who is known for making incense sticks that are used as insect repellent.

由於台灣地處亞熱帶,在夏季前來台灣旅遊的遊客,一定有遭蚊蟲肆虐的經驗,而住在台灣的民眾,則是不停的尋找驅蚊方法,在今天的真情臉譜專題,我們來認識陳榮一,製作澎湖有名的天然蚊香。

《 衲履足跡 》談茹素 On Vegetarianism

The promotion of vegetarianism is not based on religion, but that it will benefit the environment.
Besides building a healthy body and mind, vegetarians are less temperamental; when human minds are at peace, the society will be harmonious as well.

When practicing Buddhism, one must take dharma to heart, as it is the only way to truly understand the real meaning behind the religion.

Religion is not a wishing well and will only be of benefit when one takes dharma to heart, practice the ideals in their daily lives, and get rid of their bad habits.

Taiwan`s Feitsui(翡翠) Reservoir is one of two major water sources for residents in Taipei, Tamsui(淡水) and Taoyuan.

In today`s segment of Taiwan`s unique trades, we take you behind the scenes, for a look at what Feitsui(翡翠) Reservoir security guards do on the job.

9.神父賣涼麵

In Taiwan`s Tainan, Catholic priest, Father Li Ruowang(李若望) opened a cold noodle restaurant near his church, not because he was looking to make extra cash, but as a way to protect the troubled children in his congregation. As there were plans to turn the previous vacant storefront, into an Internet cafe or video arcade, Li took it upon himself to rent the location. Now, his noodle store also serves as a place, for those who might need temporary employment, to make ends meet.

在台南台灣,一位天主教的神父 李若望,開了一間 涼麵店,在他教會附近,不是因為要賺錢,而是要保護他教會的輔導孩子,因為有傳說那間空店,要改租給網咖或是電玩店,所以李若望就把店租下來,現在他的涼麵店,也剛好可以提供就業機會,給那些有所需的人。

5.緬甸工地視察

Following Cyclone Nargis in 2008, Tzu Chi was one of the first organizations on the ground, helping citizens of Myanmar recover from the devastation caused by the storm. In addition to delivering immediate, emergency care, Tzu Chi also put in place, several medium and long term plans, that included the rebuilding of schools destroyed by the disaster. Recently, several of these long-term plans have come to fruition as the first two schools were finished in 2010 and 2011 respectively, while the third school is scheduled for completion in January 2013.

2008年,納吉斯風災侵襲之後,慈濟是第一個抵達緬甸,便馬上為居民進行急難救助,除了提供即時的救援之外,慈濟也同時啟動了中長期的援建工程計畫,這包括幫助風災損毀的校園重建,目前第一、二所學校,已經分別在2010年和2011年完工,而第三所學校,也預計在明年一月完工。

6.亞庇照顧戶(1)

7.喜出網外(六)電玩把關

In recent years, adolescents performing acts of violence seems to have become more frequent. Many blame it on an increase in violent video games; however, parents might need to shoulder some of that responsibility, instead of solely blaming the gaming industry. In our last series of Internet addiction, we take a look at how video games may or may not be harming the next generation.

近幾年,年輕人犯罪行為越來越多,多數怪罪暴力的電玩遊戲,可是家長們也需要承擔一些責任,不能只怪罪遊戲業者,在我們最後一集的喜出網外專題中,我們來看看,電玩遊戲對我們下一代,可能造成的影響。


《 衲履足跡 》談媒體傳播 On Media Broadcasting

By providing the correct and true information, the media acts as the eyes of the members of public and helps all to remain connected to society.

新聞工作者,要能負起「報真導正」的使命,以媒體傳播力量,讓臺灣的愛與善廣傳全球;媒體是社會大眾的眼睛,要讓人看得正、準,也了解社會事,得知天下事。

But first, we join Tzu Chi volunteers in Argentina and Paraguay as they handed out Christmas gifts.

祈求菩薩保佑,不如反求自心。


4.喜出網外(五)成癮戒治

《 衲履足跡 》談淨化人心 Revised On Purification

The increase in human desires is the real cause behind conflicts and wars; thus, it is ever more important to purify human minds.

Spiritual cleansing is the best form of recycling, as little desires and contentment helps one change their way of life, which also means less urban development in our society.

因為人心欲望深重、國家相爭,所以更加需要淨化人心。心靈淨化是最徹底的環保,少欲知足,就能改變生活習慣,自然環境就不再受無盡的開發。

To thank the selfless dedication of the Tzu Chi Foundation over the past 20 years, the Canada Government awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal to Tzu Chi.

4.人醫往診之約

Here in Taiwan`s Chiayi (嘉義), Mr. Huang, was afraid of seeking treatment for the wounds on his legs, as he could not afford the expensive transportation and medical costs. Thankfully, the arrival of TIMA doctors gave him a ray of hope. And with the help of TIMA doctors, Grandma Yang(楊), who never fully recovered from her stroke, was shown the correct way to carry out her rehabilitation.

Today, in our continuing series on Internet addiction, we meet graduate student Weng Yuxiang.(翁鈺翔) Weng(翁) was formally addicted to internet games for nearly 7 years, but has now successful turned, what was once an addiction, into an occasional hobby. He says, the key to leaving his addiction behind, was finding an activity and interest. Let`s now take a look at the world he once lived in, and how he was finally able to leave it all behind.

6.做環保平喪子痛

Staying in Taiwan, in Tainan, Xu Mingshen(許明生) and Cai Lizhu (蔡麗珠) met Tzu Chi, when their son was hospitalized at the Dalin(大林) Tzu Chi General Hospital, and during that time, the family experienced the love and care of the medical staff and Tzu Chi volunteers. After their son passed away, the couple dedicated themselves to recycling, as a way to reciprocate Tzu Chi`s kindness. The family has now become more harmonious and the couple`s daughter has even decided to follow in their footsteps.

在台南有一對夫妻,蔡麗珠與許明生,他們在兒子生病住在大林慈濟醫院時,感受到醫護人員,和慈濟志工的溫情與關懷,兒子往生後,他們積極投入環保,家裏也變得和睦,這對夫妻的女兒也跟隨著父母腳步一同做環保。


【 衲履足跡 】談環保 On Recycling

To save the planet from being severely damaged, it is necessary to practice conservation work, and recycle and reuse all items.

Despite the low revenue, recycling work is not about making money, but devoting ourselves wholeheartedly to safeguard Mother Earth.

希望地球平安,就要力行環保;地球已經受傷嚴重,要認真保護,將丟棄的物品回收再製。雖然價格低廉,但是做回收不是為了變賣,而是真心誠意為了保護地球而做。


7.360配音員

In Taiwan, when we turn on the TV, we have a variety of channels to choose from, with several of them showing cartoons or movies from abroad. However these films or cartoons all need to be first narrated in our language, before they are ready to be broadcast. In today`s feature report on Taiwan`s fading industries, we meet two voice narrators who are responsible for voicing a variety of cartoon characters, including Doraemon and Crayon Shin-Chan. Let`s take a look.

在台灣,每當我們打開電視,就有許多節目可以欣賞,當中也有許多國外的卡通與影片,而這些影片通常都要先,透過配音員製作成中文才能播放,在今天的真情臉譜專題,我們來認識兩位資深配音員,您所認識的多啦A夢,還有蠟筆小新都是他們配音的,讓我們一起來看看。


8.進補反效果

Traditionally, Taiwanese residents will drink herbal tonics during the cold weather, to keep warm and as a dietary supplement. Stores that sell ginger duck soup and lamb hot-pot are especially popular. However, a senior in Taichung City was sent to the hospital, after drinking two bowls of ginger duck soup. Doctors say, that these soup contains a large amount of sodium, and thus are harmful to those with chronic disease. Healthy residents should also watch their sodium intake and realize that, one bowl of herbal tonic per meal is more than enough.

很多台灣民眾都會冬令進補,來幫助保暖和保養身體,坊間販賣薑母鴨,羊肉爐的進補店面,生意興隆,但是台中一名腎臟病患,因此連喝了兩碗薑母鴨湯,想不到整個人腫脹起來,醫師說,補湯內含有高鈉,對於慢性病患者,負擔很大不宜進補,而健康的國人的鈉,不用刻意進補,每餐一碗就足夠了。


9.南港歲末推素

As Tzu Chi continues to hold its year-end blessing ceremonies throughout Taiwan, the Tzu Chi Taipei Eastern District Liaison Office held its year-end blessing ceremony on December 16th. To ensure the participants all had a good time, Tzu Chi volunteer Lin Shuhui (林淑惠) poured her heart and soul into decorating the venue.

歲末祝福繼續在台灣展開,而台北東區聯絡處,在12月16號,舉辦歲末祝福,而為了讓民眾度過,愉快時光,慈濟志工 林淑惠,在現場的布置,下足苦心。

Also in Taipei City, the Xichun(西村) Borough head of Xinyi District (信義區) invited Tzu Chi volunteers to take part in a second-hand charity sale on December 8th, in which the proceeds went to various charity organizations.

After Thailand experienced severe flooding last year, Tzu Chi volunteers organized hot meal distributions in Banplab Township of Ayutthaya Province. At the end of this year, volunteers once again visited the township, bringing 20kilo bag of rice to every care recipient and seniors above 60 years of age. We will leave you with these images. Thank you for tuning in. We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy holiday with loved ones.

7.護理王蘭英Home care nurse, Wang Lanying

When patients with ca-the-ter or naso-gastric tube return home, they often need special care, and family members without the right knowledge, may find it difficult to care for their loved ones. This is when a home care nurse is needed. In our next report, we meet Wang Lanying(王蘭英), who visits 7-8 families a day, to care for these patients with special needs, as well as teach their family members of the things to take note of.

身上留有氣切管、尿管或是鼻胃管的患者,返家後生活起居常需要多花心思,這時就需要居家護理師的協助,今天我們來認識居家護理師王蘭英,一天大約探訪7至8個家庭,協助需要照顧的患者,也叮嚀家人該注意的事項。


8.健康吃湯圓Eating sticky rice balls in a healthy way

In Taiwan, winter sols-tice is celebrated by eating sticky rice balls, yet the seasonal dessert is generally regarded as high-calorie food, with its main ingredient-glutinous rice- being hard to digest. To educate the public on cooking the seasonal dessert in a healthy way, the dietitians and doctors of the traditional Chinese medicine department at Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital, demostrated how to make a rice ball soup that not only helps with digestion, but also has a low calorie count.

在台灣,冬至時節習慣吃湯圓,但湯圓熱量高,且糯米不好消化,為了讓民眾在冬至享用健康湯圓,花蓮慈濟醫院營養師與中醫師,開發出以藥膳為湯底的湯圓,促進腸胃蠕動,且低卡零負擔。


9.360扁擔族Yilan farmer selling in Taipei

Guan, like many other farmers in Yilan(宜蘭), grows his own vegetables, before selling them in one of Taipei`s many outdoor traditional markets. Despite his age, the senior farmer is not afraid of the hard work that comes along with his job, and is determined to continue the trade for as long as he can.

在今天的真情臉譜專題中,我們來認識70多歲的官中南,每天坐火車到台北賣青菜,跟許多農夫一樣,官中南自己耕種蔬果之外,還自己到台北的傳統市場賣菜,即使年紀不小了,他不怕工作辛苦,並想要這樣持續工作。

4.巴生新芽獎(三)Get children to school

Also in Asia, in Klang, Malaysia, many children from poor families are often at risk, of missing out on school, due to a lack of money. To help, Tzu Chi`s New Shoots scholarship program was created, with these children and families in mind. However, volunteers discovered that even if families, were able to pay school tuition, many children could not afford their school bus, or were going to school hungry. Therefore, starting in April of this year, Tzu Chi volunteers have slowly added monthly food and transportation subsidies, into school programs throughout the city.

也是亞洲的報導,在馬來西亞巴生許多窮人家的孩童,因為沒錢無法就學,慈濟新芽獎學金就是為了幫助這些學生而創立,但志工發現在有些孩子無法繳付車費,而且常常餓著肚子去上學,因此在今年的四月,慈濟志工階段性走入一些學校,每月提供交通與食物補助。

6.巴西下鄉義診Free clinic in slum areas

In Brazil, although medical treatment is free at public hospitals, due to large numbers of locals seeking free treatment, the long waits for an appointment, and the quality of treatment is an issue. To help, Tzu Chi volunteers hold monthly free clinics in slum areas. At a recent free clinic, Tzu Chi volunteers and doctors, provided ultra-sounds and pre-scription glasses, to those in need. Let`s take a look.

在巴西,公立醫院提供免費看病,但因為人潮眾多,不只影響到品質,掛號就要等到一年半載 ,因此慈濟志工每個月定期舉辦義診,走進貧民區 ,在近期的義診,最主要提供超音波以及為需要的民眾配眼鏡,讓我們一起來看看。


7.巴西義診人物Free clinics - behind the scenes

Continue on our last report, Tzu Chi volunteers` dedication in the free clinic, has moved many local residents to join their efforts - like Mario, who has devoted himself, for the past 15 years to volunteer work and has even invited his neighbors to join.

Yixing (宜興) clay teapots is an umbrella term for teapots made dating back to the 15th century in China and, such teapots are still made today. When treasured teapots are chipped or cracked, collectors will often send them out for repairs. One master repairer is Zeng Zhengming(曾政銘), who takes the time to find the right color clay, and the right temperature for firing, to match and mend the cracks to perfection.

宜興茶壺,是中國15世紀做的茶壺所表示的代名詞,這種茶壺今天還有愛茶者所養,萬一稍有破損,收藏家就需要茶壺醫生來修補,一位茶壺補修達人是曾政銘,他會細心的找出色澤相仿的陶土,跟適合窯燒溫度 ,才能將受損的痕跡完全掩蓋,我們來看看 曾政銘是怎麼做的。


10.魚鰭刺傷感染Infectious seafood bacteria

Most of us have probably heard of vi-brio vul-ni-fi-cus, a bacteria in seafood that can spread through consumption of seafood or contact through open wounds. The infection, if not taken care of properly, may lead to sep-ti-ce-mia and eventually death. Recently, another kind of bacteria, known as motile aero-mo-nads, has been discovered to be just as poisonous. Mr. Chen from Taichung, was pricked by a freshwater fish and did not take note of the wound. Luckily, he was treated in time and escaped death.

大多數人都聽過海洋弧菌,透過食用海鮮或是傷口感染,這樣的細菌如果沒有處理好,可能會感染潰爛,引發敗血症危及性命,最近出現了另外一種病菌,叫做親水性產氣單胞菌,同樣的可怕,台中的陳先生,不小心被淡水魚刺傷手指,沒有多照顧、處裡,幸好及時到醫院搶救挽回一命。
