For Dharma Master Cheng Yen, founder of the Buddhist Tzu Chi Foundation, helping those in need and relieving suffering is the core mission. Equally central is awakening compassion: the kind that compels us to act in the face of others’ pain.
It’s all about love, or Great Love, Da Ai (大愛) in Chinese. This is a love that transcends the limits of personal and familial relationships, nation, culture, religion, language, ethnicity, social class, and personal gain. It is an open embrace that extends to everyone, and even to the Earth, our shared home. It is the Spirit of One Family that Tzu Chi strives to nurture worldwide.
The Great Love expressed through your donations brings all of Tzu Chi’s work around the world to life. Here in the United States, it supports every step we take. To show our gratitude, our media team rolled up their sleeves and poured their hearts into creating this video as a humble thank-you gift.
We invite you to watch Cycle of Love and join us on a journey through the many dimensions of Tzu Chi USA’s care, which your generosity enables. From disaster relief and medical outreach to educational support and essential aid for families in need, your love in action is the key to it all. As Dharma Master Cheng Yen reminds us, “Unity of hearts enables limitless accomplishments.”
Thank you!
May the love in each of us converge into a vast ocean of hope, which can then be given to everyone in the world without end.
