Carrying rice and supplies, and walking into remote villages. The first Saturday of every month is Lumbini's home visit day. This time, 7 principals and teachers from Tzu Chi Teachers’ Association participated together.

They are principals, they know better (both) practically and theoretically, they are teaching the students, so basically they are the ones who guide the society to be good, they really need to know about what’s happening in their surroundings

Principal of Gautam Buddha School， Manoj Kumar Yadav
We can also apply in our life, and in our school, and also teach our students, guardians, parents to help those needy people, this is the responsibility as human beings
 
Every time a volunteer walks into a village, it will always attract nearby villagers to crowd around. The group split up, some are in charge of interacting with care recipients, while others use Jing Si Aphorisms to motivate nearby villagers.

I just thought to be happy when we were sharing about the Dharma and Jing Si Aphorisms. So next time when these villagers see Tzu Chi volunteers asking them to do good, it is easier for them to accept.
 
By interacting with the children frequently, they soon become part of them. Madan, vice-principal of Talkuha Junior High School, who participated in several previous visits, felt the joy of helping others from the visit.

Vice Principal of Takulaha Junior High School, Madan Poudel
I am very happy, I am very joyful, because we help (others with something).  They might not be my relatives and kids, but they share the problems (that) they have, it means they believe me, they love me. This is the opportunity, this is the love.
 
Seeing sickness and suffering through home visits inspires compassion. Hope that the principals and teachers can bring this spirit of kindness back to the campus, so that love can continue to circulate.
