道教敬礼手势：道教徒互 相敬 礼的手势是右手先握拳，然 后左手抱着握拳的右 手并摆在胸前。这也是一 般华人对别人敬 礼时用的手势。道教也用这种手 势，虽然多了一些步 骤，但大致也一抱拳为标 准。 因 为这个抱拳的手势代表了整 个太极，所 以道教徒在拜神祭祖的时 候，也同 样用这个手 势然 后行三拜。太 极代 表了整 个宇 宙，道教徒用敬神的手势来对亲 戚朋 友敬 礼。显 示了道教徒对他 人的礼 仪是真 诚的。遗 憾的是因 为缺 乏道教教 育，以 至一般人认 为双手和十是道教的敬 礼手势。这是一个应该纠 正的错误。Basic Greeting Rites:Taoists greet each other by cupping left hand in the right before one's chest. Similar to the common way of greeting in traditional Chinese culture, Taoists will cup the hand in a unique way to form the symbol of Tai Ji. When Taoists pay homage to the Deities, they will also use the same hand sign and in addition, they would prostrate 3 times in front of the Divine. The Tai Ji symbolises the entire universe and the Taoist is showing as much respect to his fellow friend as he will show to the Divine. However, due to lack of religious education, the act of clasping both hands together is thought to be the hand sign for Taoists.

Reflection on Learning Journey

This is My Art Work

超级忙碌的一天，今天一大早趕到 NACLI “领袖訓练学院”去上课，傍晚趕回家冲了凉后，又得趕到油池民众俱乐部主持“多元种族中秋晚会”，也许是太久没有练习声带以致当我唱“敖包相会”时，似乎高音部难以发挥，唱第二首歌“把整握人生的方向”时勉强还可以，下次可千万不可临时抱佛脚呀。

晚会的嘉宾:丰加集选区国会议员及丰加集选区基层组织顾问(吉丰)扎吉哈先生也莅临现场，油池民众俱乐部华乐团现场精彩的演奏使得节目不会冷场， 英語司仪Alan的配搭表现也非常好，晚会总算顺利的完成。

也許是今天的課程: Partners in Harmony (Part 2)太多戶外活动一整天，像是去旅游，上午去了印度庙，福德祠壇，吃午餐后还到佛牙寺以及牛车水的小商店走走看看。下午去了牛车水原貌馆，马來博物馆。。。。。。

当回到家后，整个人非常的累，感觉快要死掉了，脚又非常的酸麻，真的真的虚脱了。。。。
