Visit to the Tzu Chi Foundation in Taiwan

JUST back from a visit to the Tzu Chi Foundation in Taiwan, where at last I fulfilled my wish to meet the Dharma Master, Cheng Yen. She is the Buddhist nun who has revolutionized Buddhism by making it relevant, pro-active, providing answers to the current needs of the times in the Buddhist way.

Master Cheng Yen, as she is referred to, has not changed Buddhism’s ethos of simplicity, meditation, good works and compassion. She has translated it to contemporary language and the good works that our times require.
