Australian volunteers relieve suffering and accept responsibility with love and without fear-1

Article Details

Some twenty Tzu Chi volunteers from Gold Coast, Australia are working without fanfare yet tirelessly within the community to promote the missions of environmental protection, education, humanitarianism and vegetarian lifestyles. They spread seeds of love in the belief that "Good deeds won't happen without me.”  As the head of Gold Coast Liaison Office Sister Wu Zhao-Feng asserted: “Our personal vows to make a difference must be more powerful than any disaster; then they'll lift our wholehearted commitment to actively promote Tzu Chi's four missions and eight Dharma footprints.” Such vows become especially important when volunteers are in foreign lands, working in totally different cultures.  On March 22nd, DA.AI Technology invited these Australian volunteers, led by Sister Zhao-Fen, to Taiwan so they could share their experience in Australia supporting environmental protection.

The Australian volunteers' shared videos of a Thanksgiving tea party organized by the Australian State Emergency Service (SES) to show appreciation for their disaster relief efforts and exemplary spirit born of great wisdom. Volunteers prepared delicious vegetarian meals during the tea party, then distributed DA.AI Tech scarves so all attendees might feel Tzu Chi-style love and compassion. Mayor Paul Pisasale also came to speak on behalf of DA.AI Tech, introducing the story behind several products to the audience. Tzu Chi volunteers do everything, regularly explaining the humanitarian principles behind environmental protection to government officials. They also visit a local school campus and demonstrate recycling in order to engage with Ipswich high school students increasingly interested in cherishing resources and protecting Mother Earth. After years of constant giving and caring to the residents of Ipswich, Queensland, Tzu Chi has been warmly recognized by municipal government. So the next stop, to introduce the Dharma’s idealism, was to public servants in the police and military.
