Chi Culture Mission |

Master Cheng yen's goal in helping mankind is to humanize
the Buddhist teachings and bring bodhisattvas into this world.
Maintaining this spirit and goal, Tzu Chi created the four
major missions of charity, medicine, education and culture.
The foundation uses these visible missions to purify the invisible
spiritual sphere and to promote social harmony and peace.
During the last 30 years, the tireless efforts of Tzu Chi
members have helped to pave the way for a pure paradise in
this world.
Tzu Chi culture aims at seeking truth, goodness
and beauty. In the area of mass media, the Tzu Chi Monthly
Magazine, which was first published in July 1967, aims at
reporting the good side and the good deeds of mankind. Tzu

on human kindness and pure great love. The do not indulge
in sensationalism or criticism. They have developed a Pure
Land in he field of mass media.
