class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>During his quest for enlightenment, the Buddha is believed to have practiced asceticism in a cave on Pragbodhi Hill, near Bodh Gaya. At the foot of the hill are several villages, including Rahul Nagar, home to around 300 households.<\/p><p>Many families in Rahul Nagar raise cows and sheep. Most villagers follow the Hindu faith and consider cows sacred. Consequently, they do not raise cows for meat but primarily for milk production, assistance with farming tasks, and the creation of cow dung cakes. (Cow dung cakes are a type of biofuel, made by mixing dung with hay, then letting the mixture dry until it is hard.)<\/p><p>Moringa trees provide abundant shade outdoors in the village, and wheat stalks hang heavy and full before harvest. The sounds of chickens and dogs mingle, while cows and sheep roam freely. Residents, adults and children alike, bathe openly in the fresh air, lending a carefree ambiance to the village. It feels like a place disconnected from the modern world.<\/p><p>One day, several strangers entered the village, drawing curious villagers to gather and observe. Some children extended their hands to them, asking for things. These strangers were Tzu Chi volunteers.<\/p><p>For over a year, Tzu Chi has been conducting health checkups in villages in and near Bodh Gaya. Rahul Nagar is the ninth village to receive these services. Similar checkups have been done for monks from 12 temples and teachers from eight schools. The checkups include measuring villagers\u2019 height, weight, and blood pressure, as well as administering urine tests for protein, occult blood, and glucose. If abnormalities are found, medical referral forms are filled out for villagers to seek treatment at a community health center in Bodh Gaya. If a resident\u2019s body mass index falls below 16, they are provided with beans or milk to improve their nutrition.<\/p><p>Volunteers conduct door-to-door visits for these medical efforts and establish \u201cTzu Chi house numbers.\u201d Lim Kim Yan, a retired nurse from Singapore staying long-term in Bodh Gaya, created this house-number system after noticing the lack of doorplates and addresses in local villages. Recycled cardboard is used to make doorplates carrying Tzu Chi house numbers. The results of the checkups are entered into a computer and organized by house number. This allows health data to be easily accessed to monitor long-term health conditions.<\/p><p>India\u2019s summers are often unbearably hot, with temperatures soaring past 40\u00b0C (104\u00b0F). Some asked Lim why she didn\u2019t just choose a fixed location where villagers could go to receive checkups, instead of going door-to-door. She explained, \u201cI prefer to go house-to-house because it allows me to get a better understanding of their living conditions and family situations. The information I gather can be shared with our charity team to offer further assistance if needed.\u201d Plus, Lim doesn\u2019t mind the added workload. Helping one more villager regain their health means they can better fulfill their responsibilities, preventing their family from falling into poverty. These thoughts keep her going.<\/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

\u201cThis is something I need to learn from her,\u201d Tan asserted.<\/p><p>Lim is turning 72 this July. Since March 2023, she has spent most of her time in Bodh Gaya, dedicating herself to Tzu Chi\u2019s mission there. Inspired by her commitment to serving the local needy, Tan decided to follow her to India. Sometimes, when Lim visits villages to conduct health checkups, Tan accompanies patients to their appointments or follow-ups. The two of them make a great team, seamlessly working together and sharing the workload.<\/p><p>Going door-to-door to conduct health checkups has allowed Tan to better understand the local living conditions. She particularly empathizes with the local women. Coming from Singapore, she said that women in Singapore are very fortunate, almost like living in paradise. \u201cMany go out to work,\u201d she said, \u201cbut there are people to take care of their children.\u201d In contrast, \u201csome women here, if their husbands are present, do not even dare to speak up.\u201d Since they can afford only simple meals, many rural women weigh less than 40 kilograms (88 pounds). Due to constant toil, women in their 40s and 50s appear as aged as those in their 60s or 70s.<\/p><p>Tan continued to talk about the local conditions. The climate is either too cold or too hot and tends to be dry. The Niranjana River often runs dry, so water for daily use is drawn directly from underground and used without filtration. Villagers burn branches, leaves, cow dung, and even plastic waste for cooking or heating, causing severe air pollution. Because residents believe it is unclean to relieve themselves at home, they prefer to walk some distance to the riverbed instead. This likely contributes to many not drinking enough water and suffering from kidney stones. Alcohol consumption also poses a problem for some villagers. Volunteers have striven to raise residents\u2019 awareness of the harm of alcohol. Some villagers have health conditions, but they refuse to seek treatment in government hospitals. \u201cIf only we had the help of trustworthy local doctors and nurses,\u201d Tan said. \u201cThey would be able to communicate more effectively with the villagers and help ensure that they receive timely medical treatment.\u201d<\/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-8e3ab3d elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8e3ab3d\" 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-1fe92f1e\" data-id=\"1fe92f1e\" 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-66e01fab elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"66e01fab\" 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>Supporting younger patients<\/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-21df757c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"21df757c\" 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>Tan has accompanied several patients through their surgeries, experiencing a mix of joy and sorrow. \u201cI was especially gratified by Mithun\u2019s recovery from his burns,\u201d said Tan. \u201cHe can now squat deeply, and his hair has grown back. He happily returned to school and is getting along well with his classmates.\u201d<\/p><p>\u00a0Five-year-old Raju is another burn patient. He suffered facial burns, and his left-hand fingers were severely twisted. Last July, Tan and Lim took him and Mithun to Patna, the capital of Bihar, for surgeries and escorted them home when they were discharged from the hospital. Both children showed rare smiles at the time.<\/p><p>Raju\u2019s family was supposed to provide massages and rehabilitation for him after his surgery, but they neglected to do so, leaving his fingers stiff. When Tan visited the village of Bakraur at the end of March to advise villagers to choose tea over alcohol, she coincidentally met Raju. When she held up his hand to check, she noticed that it was still deformed. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes.<\/p><p>Tetari Kumari, 20, is another patient Tan has helped. When Tzu Chi volunteers first met her in May 2023, her right leg had been amputated from the ankle down due to a congenital illness. Despite the surgery, her leg swelled to the size of an elephant\u2019s leg, a condition she endured for several years due to her impoverished family\u2019s inability to address it. Volunteers stepped in and arranged for her to undergo another amputation surgery. Following the procedure, they tended to her surgical wound, changing her dressings every other day for over three months. Finally, on January 22 of this year, she was fitted with a prosthetic leg.<\/p><p>It wasn\u2019t all smooth sailing after that, however. Tetari\u2019s eagerness to walk led to prolonged use of the prosthetic; that, coupled with a lack of sensation in her right leg, resulted in skin breakdown. Volunteers resumed wound care for her, provided a lightweight crutch, and offered exercises to strengthen her leg muscles while waiting for her skin to heal and thicken enough for her to wear the prosthesis again.<\/p><p>Tan first arrived in Bodh Gaya in May last year. After spending three months there, she returned to Singapore. When she woke up the morning after her return and saw her comfortable room, she thought about the villagers in India and broke into tears. \u201cObserving the challenges faced by some patients in India, I wished I were a miracle-working doctor who could alleviate their suffering,\u201d she said. \u201cAlthough I can\u2019t provide medical treatment, I can offer them comfort.\u201d<\/p><p>Persistence brings hope. Tan recognizes that immediately transforming the lives of the underprivileged people in Bodh Gaya may be impossible, but she remains optimistic, saying, \u201cWe hope everyone can see some improvement.\u201d She doesn\u2019t expect luxury for those living in the sacred place of the Buddha\u2019s enlightenment but hopes they can at least have enough to eat, better sanitation, and healthier, more dignified lives. If these goals are attained, it would undoubtedly bring solace to the Buddha.<\/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
