BLIA YAD Bacolod: Learning Filial Piety Through Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva

The BLIA YAD Bacolod community recently held a meaningful lecture on Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and filial piety, reminding us of the importance of honoring and caring for our parents, grandparents, and loved ones.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is widely respected for his great compassion, vows, and devotion to helping all beings. His example teaches us that filial piety is more than simply saying “thank you” to our parents—it is shown through our actions, patience, understanding, and sincere care.

Through this lecture, we were reminded that our parents have made many sacrifices for us. We may not always be able to repay everything they have done, but we can honor them by becoming kind, responsible, grateful, and compassionate people.

Filial piety teaches us to appreciate while we still have the opportunity. A simple act of kindness, a respectful word, spending time with our family, or helping our parents when they need us can become a beautiful expression of gratitude.

May the teachings of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva inspire us, especially the youth of BLIA YAD Bacolod, to practice filial piety not only through words but through our everyday actions. Let us cherish our families, cultivate gratitude, and continue spreading love and compassion wherever we go.

“Honor your parents today, love your family sincerely, and let gratitude become a lifelong practice.”🙏🌸

巴科洛德国际佛光会青年团(BLIA YAD Bacolod):向地藏王菩萨学习孝道

巴科洛德国际佛光会青年团近期举办了一场关于地藏王菩萨与孝道的意义深远的讲座,提醒我们要重视并关爱父母、祖父母及亲人。

地藏王菩萨以其大慈大悲、宏大誓愿以及救度众生的奉献精神而广受敬仰。祂的典范教导我们,孝道不仅仅是对父母说声“谢谢”——它更体现在我们的实际行动、耐心、理解与真诚关怀之中。

通过这场讲座,我们深刻体会到父母为我们付出了巨大的牺牲。或许我们无法完全回报他们所做的一切,但我们可以通过成为善良、负责、懂得感恩且富有慈悲心的人,来表达对他们的敬意与孝心。

孝道教导我们要懂得在还有机会时珍惜当下。一个简单的善举、一句恭敬的话语、陪伴家人,或是在父母需要时伸出援手,都能成为表达感恩之情的动人方式。

愿地藏王菩萨的教诲能启发我们——尤其是巴科洛德国际佛光会青年团的成员们——不仅在言语上,更要在日常行动中实践孝道。让我们珍惜家人,培养感恩之心,并将爱与慈悲传播到每一个角落。

“今日敬爱双亲,真诚关爱家人,让感恩成为一生的修行。”🙏🌸

Spreading Kindness Through Craftsmanship 🧶✨️

Members of the Bacolod Youth Division engaged with children in Hong Kong, co-hosting a handicraft workshop centered on core Buddhist values.

Working in groups, the youth members collaborated to carefully shape and seal inflated plastic ballons using scissors and tape.

This activity not only conveyed the importance of environmental responsibility but also demonstrated how simple, thoughtful actions can transform discarded materials into fun toys.

The children took part in interactive sharing sessions, practicing how to express gratitude, encouragement, and kind compliments to one another.

Youth Division volunteers guided the participants in understanding the power of everyday speech, exploring how words can be used to build trust, boost self-confidence, and offer positive encouragement to peers.❤️✨️

以巧手传递善意 🧶✨️

由巴科洛德青年團主導策劃的佛教價值教育活動,日前邀請香港兒童共同參與一場充滿創意與歡樂的手工工作坊。青年團成員不僅負責活動設計與帶領,也透過分組合作,陪伴孩子們利用剪刀、膠帶及回收的充氣塑料材料,親手製作有趣的環保玩具。

活動除了傳達愛護環境、珍惜資源的理念,也讓孩子們從動手實作中體會到,只要發揮創意與用心,廢棄物也能被賦予新的價值。

在互動分享環節中,巴科洛德青年團進一步帶領孩子們練習表達感謝、給予鼓勵與真誠讚美,並從佛教「說好話」的理念出發,引導大家思考日常言語所帶來的影響。青年們透過分享與交流,讓孩子們了解到一句善意的話,能夠建立彼此的信任、增強自信,也能為身邊的人帶來力量與溫暖。

透過這場由青年主導的活動,巴科洛德青年團展現了青年在弘揚佛教價值與推動三好精神中的積極力量,以實際行動實踐「做好事、說好話、存好心」,也讓不同地區的青年與兒童在交流中結下善緣。

There are moments that pass, and there are moments that stay with us forever. 💛

This journey has been more than a series of activities. It is a journey of friendship, service, and growth—beginning with our Youth Oath Ceremony, walking alongside our friends from Taiwan, and creating countless memories through every shared experience.

Guided by Venerable Master Hsing Yun’s vision of Humanistic Buddhism, we have learned that Buddhism is not only found in temples, but in every act of kindness, every helping hand, every smile, and every heart that chooses to do good.

This video is more than a collection of memories—it is the story of young people choosing compassion over indifference, service over self, and hope over fear.

We are the light. Make Peace. Be the Light.
May we continue to carry Venerable Master Hsing Yun’s spirit of Humanistic Buddhism into the world, illuminating lives with kindness, wisdom, and compassion. Together, we become the light that inspires others to shine. 🌱✨





有些回憶,會隨著時間淡去;有些回憶,卻會成為一生的力量。💛

從青年成團宣誓的那一刻開始,到陪伴台灣青年交流、一起參與每一場活動,我們收穫的不只是歡笑,更是彼此陪伴、共同成長的珍貴因緣。

在星雲大師人間佛教的引領下,我們明白,佛法不只存在於殿堂,更存在於每一次善意的付出、每一份真誠的關懷,以及每一顆願意利益他人的心。

這支影片,記錄的不只是青春的片段,更是一群青年實踐「做好事、說好話、存好心」的足跡,讓人間佛教在生活中綻放光芒。

We are the Light.Make Peace.Be the Light.
願我們以青春承擔使命,以慈悲溫暖世界,以智慧照亮未來,讓每一位青年都成為和平的使者、希望的光明,共同實踐星雲大師的人間佛教。🌱✨

What does it mean to know who you truly are?
During the FGS Yuan Thong Temple Young Adults Summer Camp 2026, participants explored this question through life education, meditation, Tea Zen, an English Buddhist Service, and inspiring philosophy workshops.
From envisioning their future selves and discovering their personal North Star to awakening mindfulness through every breath and every cup of tea, they learned that true confidence comes not from labels, but from wisdom, compassion, and self-awareness.

Life, in Humanistic Buddhism, is not merely about surviving or fulfilling material needs — it is a mindful practice of daily living that helps us cultivate compassion, tolerance, and joy, allowing us to navigate the world with wisdom and clarity.Through meditation, we learn to gently settle our body and mind, let go of daily anxieties and attachments, and integrate the wisdom of "life in the human world" into our every breath, rediscovering our inner peace and harmony.This Saturday at 4:30 PM, join our Meditation session as we sit together and explore this beautiful teaching more deeply—come meditate, reflect, and experience the true meaning and joy of living with us.

🌸 Buddha’s Birthday Bathing Ceremony 🌸

FGS Yuan Thong Temple recently held an English Buddha Bathing Blessing Ceremony with around 40 participants from the local community.

The ceremony began with offerings by devotees, while youth representatives offered two books written by Venerable Master Hsing Yun: The Biography of Shakyamuni Buddha and Stories of the Buddha’s Previous Lives. The congregation chanted the Triple Gem Hymn, listened to readings from the Dhammapada, and enjoyed youth choir performances of “The Noble Eightfold Path” and “Where Are You, Buddha?”

The Dharma talk shared the story of the Buddha’s birth and Venerable Master Hsing Yun’s teaching of “I Am Buddha,” encouraging everyone to practice the Three Acts of Goodness in daily life.

The ceremony concluded with Venerable You Hui leading the song “I Am Buddha,” followed by the Buddha Day Prayer, Triple Refuge, and Dedication of Merits. 🙏✨
佛光山圓通寺日前舉辦全英文佛誕浴佛祈福禮,共有40位信眾與社區民眾歡喜參與。

法會由信徒獻供揭開序幕,青年並獻上星雲大師著作《釋迦牟尼佛傳》與《佛陀本生故事》。現場恭讀《法句經》、唱誦《三寶頌》,青年詩班獻唱《八正道》及〈佛陀您在哪裡〉,透過音樂與佛法傳遞慈悲與希望。

開示中分享佛陀降誕故事及星雲大師提倡的「我是佛」精神,鼓勵大眾從做好事、說好話、存好心開始,在生活中實踐人間佛教。

活動最後,由有惠法師帶領大眾唱響〈我是佛〉、念誦佛誕祈願文,並於三皈依與迴向中圓滿法會。🙏
