太極門掌門人洪道子博士帶領良心時代國際志工參與慧智文教基金會所主辦的「中華兒童文藝陶冶營」,宣導守護良心的重要,並與慧智文教基金會副執行長吳翠萍和兒童們共同響應良心時代運動。 |
教育是一種扎根的力量、希望的工程,種下良心的種子,萌芽後會長成茁壯的大樹。太極門掌門人暨聯合國NGO世界公民總會副主席、世界之愛和平總會會長洪道子博士所發起的良心時代運動,已獲得全球188個國家熱烈響應,6月初以「良心覺醒─世界公民共創愛與和平心時代」公益活動鼓勵美國加州各界響應。6月11日下午來到舊金山Palo Alto帕拉阿圖市一所白色鷗鳥群集、綠樹環繞的校園,慧智文教基金會所主辦的「中華兒童文藝陶冶營」,宣導守護良心的重要,太極門以祥獅陣、絲傘舞、包青天等中華文化和超過150位美籍和華裔兒童分享。
由太極門氣功養生學會、聯合國NGO世界公民總會、世界之愛和平總會所組成的良心時代國際志工,以搶答方式和7到13歲的學童們互動,引導他們建立人人都是良心領袖的觀念。在文化交流時,太極門祥獅以靈活的身段步伐和小朋友近距離互動,展現祥獸的親和力。當志工們高唱Love and Peace Song時,小朋友們也跟著旋律輕輕點頭、擺動身體,沉浸在和諧的氛圍裡。當黑面孔的包青天出現時,立刻引起騷動,小朋友們看得目不轉睛,一方面聆聽解說,也同時從歌聲中感受歷史故事裡表彰正義的精神,贏得師生和隊輔志工們的熱烈掌聲!
負責辦理夏令營活動的慧智文教基金會副執行長吳翠萍表示,十幾年前一群移民此地關心教育的媽媽們,深感文化對下一代非常重要,因此組成文教基金會來推展華人子弟對自我價值的肯定、文化的認同與親情倫理關係,希望藉著辦理一年一度的夏令營活動,在六個城市進行為期一週的課程,安排多元且饒富文化意涵的內容,以連結父母和孩子間有共同的回憶,今年推出鼓、獅、旗等多元才藝,以及童玩、戲曲、茶藝、傳統美食等,課程內容相當豐富。吳副執行長對於洪道子博士率領良心時代國際志工們在忙碌行程中,特地為良心幼苗付出心力的熱情十分感動,特別頒贈感謝狀。洪博士也贈送良心領巾給吳副執行長,以肯定她在教育上的努力並鼓勵持續推展良心工程!
「良心覺醒-世界公民共創愛與和平心時代」加州首場活動,於6月6日在洛杉磯環球影城希爾頓飯店舉行時,包括美國總統Barack Obama、美國前總統Bill Clinton、美國前國務卿Hillary Clinton、加拿大總理Stephen Harper、美國聯邦眾議院外交委員會主席Ed Royce、美國聯邦眾議員Michael Honda、美國加州參議員Bob Huff、美國加州第55選區眾議員Ling Ling Chang、美國加州第65選區眾議員Young Kim、微軟名譽主席Bill Gates、加州Alhambra市長Gary Yamauchi等,紛紛以來函、來電等祝賀此行圓滿順利。
夏令營的學員雖然和志工們彼此只有短暫的互動與交流,但是,良心的呼喚聲和文化傳承的心意,已傳達給這群7到13歲青少年的內心,未來無論學員們的人生成就如何,做好自己並保有文化的根基,將自己的好影響周遭,發揮蝴蝶效應,讓世界一家的祥和願景早日實現!
