With Heartfelt Gratitude in cultivating the Spirits of Goodness

 Utmost gratitude to KAOSHIUNG ONLINE STUDY GROUP for helping me to nurture my wisdom life. Pure Love as clear as water from every Speakers filled the world with positive energies. I am one of the beneficiaries of this Pure Love.

Of course, many lessons are learnt each week as the topics and its contents are enriching for my personal growth. I deeply believed the Program Team must have had worked tirelessly in sourcing for reading materials and information related to the Speakers invited. The Speakers are usually renowned and busy in their respective field of professionalism yet they are willing to take their precious time to share with us their journey of their life transformation.

This kind of spirits of ever-ready to benefit the masses must be emulated. They are truly walking the Bodhisattva Path and applying Master’s teachings that Tzu Chi Volunteers must aspire to be like the sturdy OX CART.

Sister Grace Ting’s guided teaching of Brother Liu Bang-Zhou (China) life transformation deeply touched me. He has since changed his dire hard old habits. His realization in life brought tremendous hope and happiness to his children. Such purification of thoughts are made possible with Tzu Chi Volunteers impartial love and effort throughout the years of caring.

SHANGREN has said that “when Tzu Chi volunteers benefit others, create blessings in this world thus they affirm the existence of Living Bodhisattvas”

I have done little but will not give up. Whenever there is an opportunity, I will continue to spread the seeds of Tzu Chi Great Love to people within my surroundings. I have carried out what I have learned in this platform to our English Weekend WAD with HUALIEN every Saturday morning in YouTube. Initially, just a handful audience but now has attracted 40plus to 70plus at its peak.

Sister MEI YUN, the anchor for this platform has inspired me to be more courageous to transmit JING SI DHARMA Lineage and advance to spread Tzu Chi School of Buddhism more widely to nurture hearts and fill them with LOVE. Though I am still very far away in this area but I will continue to learn from Sister MEI YUN’s dynamism and eloquence.

當然，從每個星期的主題分享中，所有內容都充實了我個人的成長，我深信團隊們每次都不厭其煩的研讀和搜集有關受邀來賓的資料和他們的特色，這些眾所皆知的來賓平常都各自在他們專業的領域中忙碌著，然而他們卻願意在百忙之中挪出寶貴的時間來分享如何轉換他們生命的旅程。

這種隨時都準備好的精神理念在在都讓參與的人受益無窮，而且有著群起學習的效應。他們各個都努力的跟著上人的教導，步步走上成佛的道路上，進而讓所有的慈濟人都有成為大白牛車的抱負。

由Grace師姐所分享大陸劉邦洲師兄，他的生命轉換歷程讓我很感動，從改變深根蒂固的壞習性後，體會到帶給他的孩子們巨大的歡樂和希望，這樣的改變是透過慈濟志工長時間不斷的關懷，給予無私的愛和努力所得的成果。

上人説：當慈濟人給予他人利益的當下，這世界也因此得到了祝福，這就是菩薩示現在人間。

雖然我做的很微不足道，但決不會放棄，只要有任何機會，我ㄧ定會將慈濟的大愛傳播給週遭的親友們，並將我在這個平台上所學到的運用到每個週末早上在YouTube 和花蓮的英文讀書會連線。最初只有少許的觀眾，目前已增加到30～70人次以上的顛峰狀態了。

美雲師姐是這個舞台上的舵手，鼓舞了我有更大的勇氣來傳達靜思法脈和慈濟宗門，進而讓它發揚光大，心中充滿愛的力量。雖然對我還很遙遠。
