Emulating the Buddha`s Compassion and Taking Up Master's Mission 

珍惜因緣發大心
佛心師志當守持
以智破除無明網
行有餘力護蒼生

I hope that everyone can take my mission as their own and emulate the Buddha's heart.
We should also learn the Dharma to understand the greatness of the Buddha.
Currently, the world is filled with impurities, and only the Dharma can cleanse people's minds.
Thus, we should make great vows as we have the same pure true nature as the Buddha's.
Everyone can attain Buddhahood,but to achieve this, we need to emulate the Buddha's heart.
Don't just chant the Buddha's name with the mouth.
Everyone innately has Buddha nature.
When you chant the Buddha's name, you need to bring forth your compassion like the Buddha's and take my mission as your own.
The lotus flower you're wearing on your chest symbolizes a pure heart (that is untainted by afflictions.)
We need to aspire to go amongst people to serve and not be affected by people's criticism and opposition (nor allow it to stop us from)(carrying out Tzu Chi's mission.)
If you understand,you should emulate the Buddha's heart and take my mission as your own.
Tzu Chi volunteers not only make vows to help people in their country,but also go to other countries to help those in need when they're able.
I hope that everyone can make great vows to give of themselves for all living beings.
This is my expectation for everyone.
