Its walls are slowly illuminated as the morning sun rises at six. Locals arriving from all directions and volunteers staying at the office or nearby hotels meet on the first floor after seven. After exchanging greetings of \u201cGood morning,\u201d everyone is ready to start a day\u2019s work.<\/p><p>A meeting focusing on the day\u2019s tasks soon began. English is used for discussions during the meeting, although local volunteers typically converse in Hindi and those from Singapore, Malaysia, and Taiwan speak Mandarin. Midway through the meeting, tuk-tuks carrying female villagers from Silaunja arrive. They have come here to attend the sewing class that starts at eight. Participants from Bakraur village will arrive later for a second sewing class. Both sessions are led by sewing teacher Pinke Devi.<\/p><p>Around 20 volunteers head out after the morning meeting, forming groups and boarding tuk-tuks to travel to impoverished villages or schools around Bodh Gaya. With winter in full swing, the temperature undergoes significant changes within a single day, ranging from seven or eight degrees Celsius (44.6-46.4\u00b0F) in the early morning to over 20 degrees Celsius (68\u00b0F) by noon. Volunteers from outside of India strive to adapt to the local conditions as they work tirelessly to provide warmth and support to those in need.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-16798309 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"16798309\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-24781d29\" data-id=\"24781d29\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1c4827f7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1c4827f7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>Empowering change<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9bb32c8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9bb32c8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The caste system in India has endured for thousands of years, significantly impacting the lives of its residents. With a current population exceeding 1.4 billion, a staggering 230 million people at the bottom level live lives of poverty. According to United Nations statistics, India has the highest number of impoverished people in the world.<\/p><p>Tzu Chi volunteers from Malaysia and Singapore have established a presence in Bodh Gaya, nestled in the Gaya district in the Indian state of Bihar, since March 2023. Bodh Gaya holds a special significance among the eight major Buddhist pilgrimage sites, yet today stands as one of the poorest regions in India. Volunteers hope to do what they can to improve local lives. Building on their experiences in Lumbini, the Buddha\u2019s birthplace in Nepal, they have extended their efforts to Bodh Gaya, launching local charitable, medical, and educational initiatives.<\/p><p>Among these initiatives, the charity team conducts visits to and aids the impoverished. They also organize vocational training classes in sewing, English, and computers to help residents acquire valuable skills. Among other tasks, the medical team\u2019s responsibilities include accompanying patients for medical treatment, providing home care, offering health checkups, and assisting villagers in overcoming alcohol addiction.<\/p><p>The education team currently cares for ten schools. They share Dharma Master Cheng Yen\u2019s inspirational aphorisms in the schools and organize athletic events to foster teacher-parent-student relationships. Volunteers from Taiwan have organized into a relay for documenting work\u2014when one team leaves, another arrives to take over their work. They work with local volunteer Amar Kumar to record the current situation in Bodh Gaya, document volunteers\u2019 work, and capture stories of kindness and goodness through images, text, and videos.<\/p><p>Local volunteers play an indispensable role in the different teams\u2019 activities. Being members of the local community, they provide helpful insights into the local environment and the living conditions of the residents. This shortens the learning curve for overseas volunteers, making the local volunteers valuable assistants in carrying out Tzu Chi\u2019s philanthropic endeavors locally.<\/p><p>Whether staying long-term or visiting short-term, volunteers from overseas follow the mission of \u201cSpread the Dharma and Benefit All Beings.\u201d Abiding by Master Cheng Yen\u2019s instructions, they also strive to inspire more locals to join Tzu Chi, hoping that one day they might stand on their own. But until that becomes a reality, volunteers from outside of India still need to visit to organize local affairs. Charitable aid and medical care involve long-term commitments. How do overseas volunteers, constrained by the limited duration of their stay and their own personal and professional responsibilities in their home countries, sustain assistance without falling short? The story of Tetari Kumari, a 20-year-old woman, is a good example.<\/p><p>In May 2023, volunteers discovered Tetari in Rattibigha village. She had struggled with a foot ailment since childhood, which eventually led to her foot being amputated at the ankle. Unfortunately, the surgery didn\u2019t improve her condition, nor could she afford additional treatment, due to her family\u2019s poverty. Learning of her years of enduring pain and swelling, volunteers decided to assist her in obtaining further medical treatment, pledging to cover all the expenses for another amputation surgery and the fitting of a prosthetic limb.<\/p><p>Tetari returned home after the surgery, but the inadequate medical conditions in the local village and the poor conditions of her own home environment hindered her recovery. In response, Tzu Chi\u2019s medical team visited her daily to change the dressing. Volunteer Lim Kim Yan (\u6797\u91d1\u71d5), a retired nurse from Singapore, cared for her for months. However, due to personal matters, she had to temporarily return to Singapore. To fill in for her, another retired nurse, Chong Ah Yok (\u7ae0\u611b\u7389), was specially called in from Singapore to take over Tetari\u2019s care. Chong arrived on November 20. Her luggage, weighing up to 30 kilograms (66 pounds), consisted mainly of supplies for Tetari, including disinfectant gauze, bandages, disinfectant solutions, and surgical instruments. She continued changing Tetari\u2019s dressings for more than a month.<\/p><p>During this period, the pus from Tetari\u2019s wound gradually changed from a light blue to a pale yellow, and with the removal of necrotic tissue, the wound healed day by day. When Chong prepared to return to Singapore on December 29, she visited Tetari again that morning to change her dressings. By then, the once fist-sized, horrible-looking wound had shrunken into a small area. She was relieved to see Tetari no longer suffering.<\/p><p>Chong\u2019s dedication went beyond mere time and expertise; it reflected a compassionate heart that could not bear to see others suffer. Tetari and her parents deeply felt this compassion. When Chong was leaving that day, Tetari\u2019s father, Sukar Manjhi, who usually stood solemnly outside during the dressing changes, took the initiative to join Chong and others for a group photo.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-17234bb8 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"17234bb8\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3c7bf02a\" data-id=\"3c7bf02a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b494333 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7b494333\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"810\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231227DSC04394\u8449\u6649\u5b8f-\u54f2\u4fee\u91cd\u9ede\u90e8\u4f4d.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231227DSC04394\u8449\u6649\u5b8f-\u54f2\u4fee\u91cd\u9ede\u90e8\u4f4d.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231227DSC04394\u8449\u6649\u5b8f-\u54f2\u4fee\u91cd\u9ede\u90e8\u4f4d-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231227DSC04394\u8449\u6649\u5b8f-\u54f2\u4fee\u91cd\u9ede\u90e8\u4f4d-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231227DSC04394\u8449\u6649\u5b8f-\u54f2\u4fee\u91cd\u9ede\u90e8\u4f4d-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-14a97018 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"14a97018\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A woman in Bakraur greets Tzu Chi volunteers, who are a familiar sight to local villagers now.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong><em>Ye Jin-hong<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-557da481 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"557da481\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e1087f8 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e1087f8\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2d767ade\" data-id=\"2d767ade\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9ac30ad elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9ac30ad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>The ripple effect of goodness<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-77b0fb46 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"77b0fb46\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Currently, Tzu Chi\u2019s primary focus for charitable assistance and medical care includes Bodh Gaya and nearby areas. Villages such as Silaunja, Bakraur, Ganga Bigha, Jagdishpur, Ghogharia, and Hathiyar have all borne witness to the philanthropic efforts of volunteers.<\/p><p>Among the villages, Jagdishpur sits at the foothills of Pragbodhi Hill. (Pragbodhi means \u201cprior to enlightenment.\u201d) It is believed that the Buddha spent six years practicing asceticism in a cave on this hill during his journey seeking enlightenment. This cave is now a significant tourist destination. Many villagers in Jagdishpur sustain themselves by seeking alms from pilgrims who visit this sacred site.<\/p><p>On December 14, 2023, a Tzu Chi team of five members, including Chong Ah Yok and Endrajeet Paswan\u2014who also served as a translator\u2014visited Jagdishpur to distribute protein-rich beans to malnourished villagers. As their tuk-tuk came to a halt at the village entrance, children eagerly approached, extending their hands and asking for money in simple English. This was a familiar scene for the volunteers, who had frequented the village to visit underprivileged households, conduct health checkups, and distribute aid.<\/p><p>The volunteers distributed beans and conducted weight checks for seven households during their visit. Unfortunately, they also encountered villagers who shouted at them and complained about not receiving supplies. The volunteers simply smiled and nodded as they passed the hecklers, but Surendra Paswan, the driver of the tuk-tuk carrying the volunteers and volunteer Endrajeet\u2019s elder brother, couldn\u2019t contain his anger when he saw and heard the irrational villagers. He shouted back at them.<\/p><p>When he saw this, Endrajeet took off his volunteer vest and asked his brother to wear it. He then invited his brother to participate in the subsequent bean distribution. When other volunteers asked Endrajeet why he did that, he replied that he wanted his brother to think of himself as a Tzu Chi volunteer. It was a way to remind him to maintain inner calm. When one is calm, one is better able to handle challenging situations.<\/p><p>The elder brother understood his younger brother\u2019s intentions and reflected on his behavior. He said that he had seen how his brother had changed after working with other Tzu Chi volunteers\u2014he had begun to speak more softly, and his temper had significantly improved. He was happy for his brother and had begun thinking of becoming a volunteer too.<\/p><p>The ripple effect of goodness was spreading. When the team reached Ganga Bigha village, a local suddenly emerged, bringing fresh guavas to the volunteers. Endrajeet immediately recognized him, for it was none other than Tetari\u2019s father, Sukar Manjhi.<\/p><p>Volunteers return to the Tzu Chi office from various locations as the sun sets each day, often crossing the bridge over the Niranjana River. Over 2,500 years ago, the Buddha emerged from his cave of ascetic practice, bathed himself in the Niranjana River, and accepted milk-rice from a woman named Sujata. With renewed strength, he crossed the river and ultimately attained enlightenment under a bodhi tree.<\/p><p>The very site where the Buddha reached enlightenment is now home to the renowned Mahabodhi Temple. On clear days, volunteers can see the temple bathed in the sunset while crossing the Niranjana River. In these moments of serene beauty, they offer silent prayers, hoping that the Buddha\u2019s teachings of kindness, wisdom, and inner peace can flourish locally. They envision that the spark of light kindled in one heart can pass from one to another, illuminating the path for ever more people.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7d54462 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7d54462\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d55ff9c\" data-id=\"d55ff9c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-281d850 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"281d850\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231226JIA_7409\u6797\u5bb6\u5982-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231226JIA_7409\u6797\u5bb6\u5982-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231226JIA_7409\u6797\u5bb6\u5982-\u54f2\u4fee-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231226JIA_7409\u6797\u5bb6\u5982-\u54f2\u4fee-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231226JIA_7409\u6797\u5bb6\u5982-\u54f2\u4fee-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231226JIA_7409\u6797\u5bb6\u5982-\u54f2\u4fee-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2024\/03\/20231226JIA_7409\u6797\u5bb6\u5982-\u54f2\u4fee-330x220.jpg 330w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e267383 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e267383\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Outside the Tzu Chi Bodh Gaya office, tuk-tuks carrying volunteers and aid supplies are ready to set out for visits to those in need.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em><strong>Lin Jia-ru<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6654a55 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"6654a55\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1ee6f50e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1ee6f50e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-72e95453\" data-id=\"72e95453\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ecb449e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3ecb449e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"189\" height=\"170\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2022\/07\/\u82f1\u6587\u9801\u5c3e-2.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the sun rises over Bodh Gaya, Tzu Chi volunteers convene to embark on a day of philanthropic work.
