1.巴西兒童節 Bringing gifts for Children”s Day

We start today”s show in Brazil, where Children”s Day falls on Oct 12. In an early celebration, Tzu Chi volunteers organized an event for underprivileged students, in Cocaia (co-KAY-ah), near Sao Paulo. Back in June, volunteers held a free clinic in the remote area, and also distributed food. Recently they returned, to share in the fun of Children”s Day, with the little ones.

今天節目的一開始,我們來到巴西,十月十二號是他們的兒童節,為孩子提早慶祝,志工們在聖保羅市的哥蓋亞區,舉辦活動,六月時,志工們才舉辦過義診與發放食物,最近他們回來,跟孩子們一起歡度兒童節。


2.美國慶球賽 Celebrating Taiwan”s 100th birthday

It”s the 10th of October - National Day here in Taiwan. The Republic of China was born on this day in 1911, 100 years ago. To celebrate the country”s centennial, Taiwanese associations around the globe are holding various activities. In Southern California of the United States, a local golf association recently held a celebratory tournament, inviting Tzu Chi to promote conservation at the event. Volunteers provided environmental cups, which saved 2,400 plastic bottles.

十月十日是台灣的國慶日,而台灣則是在1911年一百年前建國,為了慶祝建國屆滿一百年,全球的各個台灣協會與組織,都會舉辦不同類型的活動,在美國的南加州,當地的高爾夫球協會,最近舉辦了慶祝建國百年的比賽,並邀請慈濟志工前來推廣環保,志工們提供環保杯與水,幫忙省下了2400瓶的瓶裝水。


《 靜思語 》

Use the Dharma to first cultivate our wisdom, then use our wisdom to benefit others.

用法度己,智慧成長;再度他人,就是「回自向他」。


3.鹿野尋根 Chinese Tzu Chi volunteer pilgrimage

Using wisdom to benefit others, 161 Tzu Chi volunteers from China”s east coast, and northern regions, recently paid a visit to Taitung”s Luye Township, in Taiwan, where they learned more about how Master Cheng Yen first went there in 1960, in search of the dharma. The Chinese volunteers were deeply moved and inspired by the Master”s story.

大陸華東華北慈濟人參訪團共161位,來到台灣台東鹿野參訪,了解上人1960年到鹿野,求道修行的辛苦,大陸慈濟人深受感動,表示這一趟來的感受很深,回去以後要更努力把愛傳出去。


4.慈濟鹿野 Master Cheng Yen”s 1st stop

On October 6, 1995, Master Cheng Yen took senior executives from Tzu Chi to Luye, for a pilgrimage back to her roots. The trip helped everyone realize how difficult it was to found the NGO. In our next story we meet Lin Huizi(林慧子), who is the daughter of the builder of Wangmu Temple, in Luye, where Master Cheng Yen first made up her mind to become a Buddhist nun.

1995年10月6日,證嚴上人帶領本會各志業體主管,前往台東鹿野尋慈濟的根,為的就是讓眾人更了解,創辦慈濟功德會之不易,接下來的報導,帶各位認識,當年王母廟建造者的女兒林慧子,這裡也是上人出家前,第一個清修的落腳處。


5.天母長者義剪 Free haircuts for senior residents

Recently, Tzu Chi volunteers held a free haircut service for seniors, at the Guandu(關渡) Tzu Chi Chapter, in Taipei. Three salons came to help, bringing together no less than 50 stylists.

最近,慈濟志工在台北關渡園區,為長者舉辦義剪活動,三家連鎖髮型業者,出動了五十位員工前來幫忙。


6.永和百歲人瑞 Caring for 108-year-old senior

Next up, we go to the Yonghe District of New Taipei City, to meet a 108-year-old woman. Local Tzu Chi volunteers have been caring for the senior, always re-introducing themselves, as the old woman has trouble remembering who they are.

接下來,帶大家到新北市永和區,認識一位高齡108歲的阿嬤,慈濟人關懷阿嬤已經多年,不過,儘管阿嬤已經認不得志工了,志工還是不厭其煩的介紹自己。


《 衲履足跡 》Worries and Woes 談煩惱

Troubles can stir our minds into a murky turmoil. But bodhisattvas treat all living things with mercy and pity, and worry about the pain and suffering of others.
Tzu Chi people bring comfort to the suffering, and devote their lives to saving other people”s lives. That selfless spirit of service is both a motivation and a burden.

「煩惱」起於無明雜念,菩薩則以慈悲心悲憫眾生、為眾生苦難而擔憂;慈濟人膚慰苦難眾生、良醫用生命走入生命搶救生命,皆以無私的精神付出,以毅力承擔重任。


7.大河劫大甲溪下 Footprint issues at Gaomei Wetland

The Gaomei Wetland, at the eastuary of the River Dajia, on the west coast of Taiwan, is a home for rare plants and animals. It is also a natural seawall, a carbon store, and a water purifier. Added up, scientists say it”s worth billions. But it could be under threat? In the latest in our series of features on the River Dajia, we go to investigate.

位於大甲溪出海口的高美濕地,是中部地區沿海的遊憩聖地,這裡富有全臺灣稀有的動植物,以及豐富的海洋生態,還肩負了水跟空氣的濾淨功能,科學家說,價值大約幾十億新台幣,不過是否有受到威脅呢?今天的大河劫大甲溪的系列專題報導,帶各位去看看。
