Omschrijving
The Birth of Tzu Chi is a historical series documenting the development of the Tzu Chi Foundation. This book covers its foundational years, detailing how Master Cheng Yen's simple aspiration, "For Buddha's teachings, for all living beings," led to a global movement.
This volume documents Tzu Chi's origins from 1966 to 1978, tracing its expansion from Hualien, eastern Taiwan, across the island. It includes the "Bamboo Bank Era," where 30 housewives saved 50 cents daily, and the establishment of free medical clinics in 1972, which addressed the intertwined issues of poverty and illness. It further examines key events and Tzu Chi's distinct approach to charity, including systematic home visits, providing aid, and promoting principles of "equal giving" and "giving without expectation." These early actions established a model for engaged compassionate action, demonstrating how spiritual principles could be applied in society.
Providing a detailed account of Tzu Chi's early development, this is valuable reading for students, academics, and researchers in Buddhist Studies, Asian Studies, Religious Studies, Sociology, as well as anyone interested in social welfare, Buddhist philanthropy, or the history of modern Taiwan.
