新加坡慈济大爱人文馆 Tzu Chi Da Ai Gallery Singapore

2016年5月11日，大爱人文馆在台湾静思精舍师父和慈济志工的见证下，正式启用。

静思精舍师父 德勷法师：这是非常科技的，我们的天花板会说法，在我们小小的墙壁里，小小的布置，都非常用心，所以我觉得这里面有太多太多慈济的宝藏，慈济的大藏经。

大爱人文馆馆长 萧明兰：你看这样的镰刀，它的颜色已经褪色了，可是它是扎扎实实我们常驻师父握在手里，在太阳底下，在锄那些杂草，所以这些真实感，我们希望把它带来我们的人文馆。

图文并茂，固然生动，但搭配起真实物品，更能身历其境。人文馆里全入于法中，不管是手摸之物、脚踩之地或眼睛接触到的任何地方，都能与法相会。

大爱人文馆说法员 詹尊玉：进到门口，看到竹筒岁月，小钱行大善，还有在地上撒了一把米，那我们就介绍米的故事，讲出了一个理念，就是诚正信实，其实这个米的故事，在旁边就有一个米扑满，介绍八分饱两份助人好的理念。

慈济雪隆分会副执行长 苏祈逢：用另外一种方式来呈现立体、真实，然后用故事来把这个大爱来呈现，我相信每个到来的人都会让大家很感动。

台湾驻新加坡代表 梁国新：一般人能够理解慈济做了很多的志业，但是（呈现）在这个三个房间，小的空间里面，真的看了很不容易。

五年多来，人文馆接待无数访客，走进来的，都能找到善的共鸣。

访客 ：不分种族，好像做了捐款，我们都要有一种尊敬人家，这也是一个很好的教育。

访客：你去做好事不是要表现你很厉害，你多么有能力，是一种将心比心，遇到问题想要有人帮助你，就是这种角度，当你看到别人需要帮助，你是不是也可以主动伸出你的手。

访客：好像竹筒存零钱，是一个很好的概念，交出的是每天省下的，去超市带了十块钱，我们投五十仙到竹筒里，这就是我们要的善款，这让我留下深刻印象。

访客： 我是回教徒，听了解说，他们没有强迫我们成为佛教徒，他们要我们当志工，要有那份大爱，这是很美好的。

修女 玛丽：这是很鼓舞人心的，证严法师的教诲与基督教徒和所有宗教的教法都一致，爱的循环、慈悲、怜悯。这并不是要做很多事，而是做我们真的要做的。若真的了解证严法师的教诲，要真正落实出来，不是为了别人，而是为了自己。

斯里兰卡法师 古纳法师：虽然我不是慈济的成员，但我觉得行善能够不分彼此和涵盖所有人是一件很棒的事。我真心祝福所有（慈济）目标宗旨都达成。

这间融合科技与现代设计的大爱人文馆，在2021年10月，画下句点。实体的转变，不影响大爱精神的传承，既已牵起这份长情，期许踏出人文馆的每位有缘人，将感动化为行动，让善涟漪持续发酵。

On 11 May 2016, Tzu Chi Da Ai Gallery was officially inaugurated under the witness of Dharma Masters from Taiwan Jing Si Abode and many Tzu Chi volunteers.

Dharma Master De Rang：This is very technologically advanced. Our ceilings are able to speak the dharma, our small walls with the small decorations are done with plenty of heart, so I feel that this place is filled with many precious Tzu Chi treasures and Tzu Chi’s tripitaka.

Da Ai Gallery Supervisor Seow Beng Lan：Look at this sickle, its color has already faded but it is what our resident masters was holding in their hands while under the sun hoeing those weeds. So it is this sense of realism which we hoped to bring it to our Daai Gallery.

Although the pictures and texts are vivid but when matched with real objects, they become more immersive. The Daai Gallery has been fully immersed in the Dharma, and you will be able to come into contact with the Dharma no matter what you touch, where you step on, or where your eyes look.

Daai Gallery Tour Guide Cham Toon Chok：Upon entering the door, you can see the bamboo bank which signifies doing great good with small donations. There is also a handful of rice sprinkled on the ground, we will then introduce the story behind and explain the philosophy of honesty and faithfulness. In fact, right beside this, there is a rice piggy bank, which introduces the idea of eating till 80% full and helping others with the remaining 20%.

Tzu Chi Malaysia（KL&Selangor） Deputy Chief Executive Richard Sio：Through using another way to present the physical and real stories of great love. I believe that everyone who visit will be very moved.

Taiwan Representative in Singapore Francis Liang：Most people are able to understand that Tzu Chi has many missions but when presented in these three rooms, we can tell that it is not easy.

For more than five years, Daai Gallery has received countless visitors. Those who walked in have all been able to resonate with the good.

Visitor：Regardless of race, after we have made donations, we have to show respect, this is also a good form of education.

Visitor：You do good deeds not for the sake of showing how good and capable you are. It’s a way of showing compassion. You would also want someone to help you when encountering a problem. When you see others needing help, will you also be able to take the initiative to reach out a helping hand.

Visitor：Like the bamboo coin bank savings is a splendid idea. You give us what you save daily, you go to market with ten dollars, you put fifty cents into the bamboo coin bank. That’s the kind of money we want, that’s what really impressed me.

Visitor：I am a Muslim. After the talk, they did not force us to become Buddhists. They want us to volunteer and have a big heart around us. That is very wonderful.

Sister Mary Wong：It is very inspiring. What your Master teaches is what all Christians and all religions teach. The cycle of love, compassion, and mercy. It is not doing a lot of things, it is doing if you really want to do. If you understand the teachings of your Master, you want to put it into practice, not for others, but for yourself.

Sri Lankan Master Bhante K Gunaratana：Although I am not a member or a founder of it, I find that it is a great thing doing universally. From the bottom of my heart, I bless Tzu Chi’s objectives to be fulfilled.

The Da Ai Gallery, which combines technology and modern design, came to an end in October 2021. Its closure will not affect the passing on of the great love spirit. For people who have been impacted deeply, it is hoped that upon stepping out of the Gallery, each and every one of them will be able to translate their emotions into actions, thus allowing the ripples of goodness to continue spreading.
