1. 瀋陽首次愛灑

We kick off today’s show in China, in Shenyang(瀋陽) City of Liaoning(遼寧) Province, where Tzu Chi volunteers held their first tea gathering for 500 entrepreneurs. After gaining a better understanding of Tzu Chi, these businessmen all vowed to incorporate the organization’s humanitarian spirit into their companies.

節目一開始，首先來看慈濟志工在中國瀋陽舉辦茶會，活動有五百位企業家的參與，透過影片，企業家們對慈濟有更深的了解，也答應要把慈濟人文帶入公司中。


2. 武漢歲末祝福

Staying in China, in Hubei’s(湖北) Wuhan(武漢), Tzu Chi volunteers held their first year-end blessing ceremony, in which over 400 local residents took part. Volunteers worked hard to put on a perfect sign language performance, in hopes of inspiring participants to join Tzu Chi.

也是中國的報導，湖北武漢慈濟志工今年第一次舉辦歲末祝福，邀請了四百多位民眾參加，儘管當地志工人數不多，但大家都參加歲末祝福的經藏演繹，希望讓更多民眾認識慈濟。


3. 廈門歲末圍爐+屏東啟智圍爐

As Chinese New Year is just days away, Tzu Chi volunteers in Pingtung (屏東), Taiwan, invited mentally challenged students, to put on a drumming performance at their reunion banquet. Meanwhile, in China, Tzu Chi volunteers in Siming(思明) District of Xiamen(廈門), organized their first ever reunion banquet for their care recipients.

農曆新年即將到來，在台灣，屏東慈濟志工邀請了啟智教養院的院生表演擊鼓。而在中國，廈門的思明社區志工今年則是第一次舉辦照顧戶圍爐活動。


《 靜思語 》

The heart’s desires are the causes of life’s greatest miseries.

心靈的欲念，是引發人生最痛苦的因。


4. 慈悲約定(二)劫後餘生

Syria is the only country in the Middle East without a debt problem. Its enjoys an advanced farming industry and the residents there are widely educated, but as the civil war continues, it has robbed everyone of their wealth, land, pride and even lives. As residents are fleeing to nearby countries, to seek temporary shelter; we look at the difficulties faced by these refugees who are away from home.

敘利亞是中東地區唯一沒有外債危機的國家，農工業發達，國民又普遍具有良好的教育水準，但是戰爭瞬間剝奪了他們擁有的財產、地位、榮耀，甚至性命，居民逃亡鄰近國家尋求庇護，我們的鏡頭將帶您前往位於約旦的聯合國難民營，了解他們的現狀。


5. 慈青居家關懷

Many Tzu Chings in Taiwan are seizing their winter breaks to travel to Hualien, to take part in volunteer work at the Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital. In addition to helping on the hospital grounds, some Tzu Chings also accompanied volunteers on home visitations, where they learned a valuable life lesson.

慈青在寒假時把握時間，到花蓮慈院當醫院志工，除此之外，還跟著志工一起去照顧戶的家中打掃，同時也見苦知福。


《 衲履足跡 》

On Our Original Nature

Our hearts have a light that illuminates in darkness. This is our pure and unsullied original nature. This original nature has no shape or form, but exists nevertheless. It is through wisdom that we express this radiance of our original nature in the world of form, sound, and color.

主題：談「心」

開示：人人的心本具有照亮黑暗的光亮，就是清淨無染的本性，「性」無形無相，但是確實存在，要用智慧顯現有聲 有色的「相」，呈現人間的光明面。


6. 黃豆的真相(2)

Much of the food consumed by Taiwanese such as soy milk, tofu and dried beancurd are all made from soybeans. However, most of the soybeans used today, are imported from abroad and ge-ne-ti-cally modified. Despite the high cost involved to produce locally grown soybeans, providing healthy foods that are free of toxins is a commitment that Taiwan’s organic farmers have taken to heart. Let’s take a look.

台灣人時常吃的豆漿、豆腐、豆皮，都是由黃豆做成的，但我們用的黃豆卻大多是進口的，也都是基因改造的。儘管本土栽種難、成本又高、市場不大，但讓大家吃到健康無毒的食物，是台灣有機農民一直秉持的堅持，讓我們一起來看。


7. 海南愛啟航(3)環保志工

Since Tzu Chi’s establishment in Hainan(海南), China, Guangzhou(廣州) Tzu Chi volunteers have been working to promote recycling concepts to local communities, and thus, brought a group of recycling volunteers to Taiwan last March, to learn more about the organization’s environmental work. After seeing how volunteers in Taiwan are giving selflessly to safeguard the planet, this group of recycling volunteers from China, was inspired to do the same upon returning home.

慈濟在海南成立後，廣州慈濟志工積極推動環保，並於去年三月帶一群環保志工來到台灣參觀慈濟環保志業，看到台灣志工如此用心守護大地時，這群志工回到當地也深受啟發，投入推動環保志業。


END: 獨居清掃迎新

In Taiwan, as residents around the island are getting ready for the coming Chinese New Year this weekend, Tzu Chi volunteers in Taipei’s Songshan(松山) District have set aside their busy schedules, to help solitary senior, A-Nan(阿南) clean his home. We will leave you with these images. Thank you for tuning in. Goodbye.

在台灣，全台居民都在期待農曆年的到來，松山區慈濟志工暫時放下手邊的工作，協助一位獨居長者阿南打掃家園，一起來看看，感恩收看，再會。(2013.02.07)
