2? Don't speak loudly while waiting.
3? Sometimes you can't see all the patients in the morning, and patients and companions have to bring food for a day.
4? Those who stayed in the missionary office without the doctor's permission were not given medicine and were ordered to leave. This is because a patient broke into the dormitory to grab a bed. )
5? Bottles and jars containing medicines must be returned.
6? During the period from the ship to the port in the middle of each month, ordinary patients are not accepted except in an emergency. This is to use this time to write letters and order medicines from Europe.
Shi Huaizhe treated people and never thought of asking black people for medical expenses. In addition to medical equipment and medicines, we should always prepare food for patients and companions. But some indigenous people don't cherish what they get for nothing. In order to make the hospital survive for a long time, and also to let the aborigines learn to be grateful and cherish the hospital. So he patiently told them that they were saved in the clinic and treated well. Many people in Europe made sacrifices for this, so they should try their best to do something to maintain the survival of the hospital. Gradually, the local people know how to give thank-you gifts. Some people paid some money, and some people sent some things, such as eggs and bananas. These are all nine Niu Yi hairs for the survival of the hospital, but everyone knows how to take better care of things, and the order of the hospital is gradually established. Of course, he never accepts thanks to the poor and the old.
Shi Huaizhe is a believer who attaches great importance to the happiness of human soul. What he devoted himself to was not so much improving the living conditions of indigenous people as teaching them correct beliefs and getting rid of superstitions. Every time he goes to church, he preaches in the most concise and understandable words, and his heart is full of affection and joy.
However, the road ahead is full of difficulties. Countries that set up colonies in Africa, their ruling purpose is nothing but one word. A large number of brandy factory products were shipped from Europe and America, which destroyed the lives and industries of local people and made them unemployed. Some white people often extort money from black people and are insatiable, which makes black people lack trust and respect for white people.
Shi Huaizhe is not made of steel. He often feels physically and mentally exhausted. On a lonely night, he occasionally tried to play the piano for the organ given to him by the Paris Bach Association, which brought inexplicable comfort to his depressed mood and made him completely immersed in incomparable joy and intoxication. He also realized that only by staying away from the noisy and utilitarian concerts in Europe without any interference can he feel such a wonderful feeling.
19 14, due to health problems and lack of funds, Shi Huaizhe and his wife plan to return to China for a period of time. But at this moment, World War I broke out. From August 19 14 to August 1 10, Shi Huaizhe from Germany and his wife became French prisoners. The hospital had to close. Therefore, Shi Huaizhe has plenty of time to calm down and read and write. He used this opportunity to think and sort out the long-standing questions about human civilization in his heart. Shi Huaizhe wrote in his book:
Europe controls and leads the world with its developed industrial civilization. Establish colonies in Asia and Africa, grab them by surprise and live a comfortable life. They are self-satisfied, only know pleasure, and live a life of drunkenness. Their young and energetic spirit is lost, and the love taught by Jesus is also lost. Is this a good society?
The progress of civilization should be to make mankind happier. The so-called happiness can never be satisfied by material things. Only when people and society can move up morally can they be called progress.
In the current human society, the rapid progress of material civilization has dazzled the human mind. People only know the desire to pursue material things, but most people don't say it. Even poets, thinkers and philosophers, the conscience of mankind, have forgotten the value of morality. Human beings are controlled by matter, which ultimately makes human beings suffer misfortune. At this rate, is it not self-destruction for mankind?
Since the middle of19th century, ideals no longer come from rationality, but from reality, so we are more and more illiterate and inhuman. Our affirmation of the world and life has also lost a solid foundation, and modern people no longer have the motivation to think and realize all progressive ideals. People have made extensive compromises with reality. All this is terrible, and mankind may perish because of it.
Shi Huaizhe opposed any violence and aggression all his life, and he strongly advocated respect for life. Shi Huaizhe firmly believes that it is our instinct to long for survival and fear destruction and pain, and it is also the instinct of every living body. As a thinking person, we should respect others and other lives, because they, like ourselves, have a strong desire to live a free and happy life. Therefore, any destruction, interference and destruction of life, whether physical or mental, is not good; Anything that helps, saves and benefits the growth and development of life is good.
In real life, Shi Huaizhe believes that when it hurts life, everyone must judge whether it is inevitable because of the necessity of life. In particular, he cited an example: a farmer can cut 1000 grass flowers for his cattle to eat in order to live in the pasture, but he should not accidentally kick down a roadside flower on his way home. Shi Huaizhe believes that all life in the universe is complete. When we devote ourselves to helping other lives, our limited life experience is integrated with countless lives in the universe. Shi Huaizhe published many speeches and articles in his life, opposing the war and its damage to the environment and the development of nuclear weapons, and his most powerful speech was that he practiced this with his own life.
In 19 15, Mr. and Mrs. Shi Huaizhe were repatriated to the European prison camp and stayed there continuously. The most uncomfortable thing for prisoners is that they are locked up for a long time, depressed and don't want to do anything. Shi Huaizhe was allowed to treat patients through hard work and give spiritual encouragement to depressed prisoners of war, and wrote The Philosophy of Civilization. In addition, he can put aside his immediate troubles, calm down, regard the edge of the desk as the keyboard of the piano, and indulge in imaginary music. 1965438+In July 2008, Germany and France exchanged prisoners of war, and Shi Huaizhe and his wife were able to return to their hometown.
After returning to my hometown, although I got the position of assistant to the municipal hospital and deputy pastor of the church, the ideal road of life is foggy and my heart is very lonely and desolate. I don't know when the hospitals in Africa can be rebuilt, and the publication of books such as "The Philosophy of Civilization" is far away. I don't know how to repay the money I borrowed from friends and churches before, and my health is not ideal. Even so, he still did not lose his sympathy for the misfortune of others, and silently did all kinds of good deeds of love within his power.
Before Christmas 19 19, he suddenly received a letter from Syed blom, president of Uppsala University in Sweden, inviting him to teach philosophy. His teaching has achieved unprecedented success, and his view of "fearing life" has aroused widespread concern. Sai immediately suggested that he hold lectures and concerts all over Sweden and wrote him several letters of introduction. In addition to philosophy, he also introduced his career in Africa and the situation of black people, which moved countless audiences. Soon, the publishing house found him, and lectures and concerts from European countries came one after another. He paid off all his debts and had the funds to prepare for his career in Africa.
1924 February, Shi Huaizhe left Strasbourg. His wife Helen can't go with him this time because she is in poor health. In this case, Helen was able to take the overall situation into consideration and agreed to let him go to Rambalun to start work again. Shi Huaizhe is really grateful to Helen forever. Shi Huaizhe stayed in Africa for three and a half years this time. In June, 1927, 1, the patient was transferred from the old hospital to the new hospital. By the middle summer of the same year, some wards had been expanded. Now this hospital can accommodate 200 patients and their companions, and the number of patients is generally between 140 and 160. Now that all the necessary equipment in the hospital has been completed, Shi Huaizhe can hand over the hospital to his colleagues and consider returning to China.
1928, Frankfurt awarded him the famous Goethe Prize. It was also at this time that in Switzerland, the newspaper obituaries often said, "Please donate all your money to Dr. Shi Huaizhe's hospital in Rambaland, Africa, according to the wishes of the deceased."
In a speech commemorating Goethe, Shi Huaizhe said: "We must fight against ourselves and everything else, not for any reason, but because modern times are an dehumanizing era. Goethe devoted himself to his conscience regardless of the seriousness of the matter. A person is not thinking about the society of an era, but about human beings themselves or individuals-this is beyond the times. "
In February, Shi Huaizhe came to Rambalun for the third time. When I first arrived, although a severe dysentery epidemic was about to pass, it was still fierce. In the meantime, because there are too few wards for dysentery patients, they have to live in the wards where mental patients are placed nearby, so they have to build new wards for mental patients. Based on the accumulated experience in the past, the new ward is stronger, brighter and more ventilated than the old one. After the completion of this building, Shi Huaizhe will also build a large ward with independent beds for seriously ill patients, and also need to build a warehouse for storing food. With the loyal assistance of local carpenter Monianzari, all this work was completed within one year.
In the next 30 years, Shi Huaizhe will travel to and from Europe and Africa more than ten times. He spent most of his time in Lambran Hospital in Africa.
195310 June 13, Shi Huaizhe's nephew, who is also a doctor at Rambalun Hospital, learned from the radio that his uncle had won the Nobel Peace Prize and excitedly told his uncle that Shi Huaizhe thought his nephew had misheard him. The next day, congratulatory messages from all over the world poured into Rambalun Hospital, including kings, presidents and other dignitaries. The official notice has also arrived. The President of West Germany not only expressed his admiration for the old doctor, but also awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to those who advocated "reverence for life" and practiced it, expressing great joy. The reporter asked Shi Huaizhe how he planned to use the prize money. "Of course it will be used in Rambalun Hospital." He answered without hesitation.
General Marshall of the United States also won the Nobel Peace Prize, but many countries in the world voiced their opposition to the latter's award, and some people in Oslo, Norway also distributed leaflets to express their serious protests.
1September 4th, 965, Shi Huaizhe died. Shi Huaizhe spent 53 years making glorious sacrifices for African aborigines. No matter how much external resistance there is, Shi Huaizhe is determined to prove by actions that love can sprout and take root anywhere. Throughout his life, Shi Huaizhe not only left a jungle hospital with more than 600 beds in Africa, but also his medical service in Africa became a benchmark of social service in the 20th century.
During Shi Huaizhe's life, countries all over the world awarded him more than 50 honorary doctorates. There are countless medals and honors.
Today, Rambalun Hospital still brings health and care to thousands of people year after year.
Today, more than 50 countries and regions around the world have established the "Friends of Shi Huaizhe" Association to publicize Shi Huaizhe's "fear of life".
