Due to the Buddha Bathing event, Qianguang Temple in Gushan District, Kaohsiung, cooperated with Tzu Chi to provide vegetarian lunch boxes to the 10 villages and the police and firefighters in the villages, forming a good relationship.
The sound of cutting vegetables in the kitchen was heard one after another, and vegetarian dishes were cooked. The volunteers who finished the appearance of the volunteers were not only Tzu Chi volunteers wearing blue sky and white clouds, but also some people, who were volunteers from Qianguang Temple in Gushan, Kaohsiung.
Master Dahui, the abbot of Qianguang Temple, said: “After all, being a vegetarian is a very important thing now, which can reduce carbon emissions. This time, there are also volunteers from the Tzu Chi team, who are so strongly supporting and helping.”
The vegetarian promotion of Qianguang Temple originated from Master Dahui’s cooperation with Tzu Chi volunteers in Taipei during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Taipei Chi volunteer Lin Meilan: “Invite the monk team to promote the Kindness Bento in various Buddhist temples, starting from the Buddhist temple of Master Yu Fo Fa, who has a connection with Tzu Chi, and promoting it from the north to the south.”
The 18th Buddhist temple responded to the Kindness Bento, and the local Tzu Chi volunteers and the Buddhist temples cooperated to make delicious meals!
Tzu Chi volunteer Lin Meilan: “I wish every vegetarian to be safe and healthy.”
The Kindness Bento uses reusable environmentally friendly lunch boxes, once a week, for a month.
Citizen Guo Xiuqin: “It’s delicious. I ate it once last time and missed it. I look forward to it coming soon this week.”
A total of ten villages and fire stations and police stations promoted it, encouraging the public to eat more vegetarian food and respond to protect the earth with actions!
