锦荣是一位经验丰富的教育工作者与研究者，负责统筹本会以实证为本的研究、教学发展与出版工作。他从事教育行业三十年，专注于高能力学生的教育与培养。

他毕业于华侨中学，于华中初级学院完成大学预科课程，其后就读于新加坡国立大学。学术背景与丰富的教学经验，塑造了他严谨的研究态度：以逻辑推理、批判性探究、审慎比较与清晰表达为根基。

在教学生涯中，他长期与具备较高学术能力、求知欲以及能够思考课程范围以外课题的学生密切合作。这段经历让他深刻理解：复杂的课题应当如何被审视、组织与传达，而不流于简化。

三十年的教育经验，也使他能够与不同年龄、不同阅历的人有效沟通。面对学生，他能把艰深的概念拆解为清晰、贴近生活且循序渐进的步骤，同时鼓励他们质疑既有假设、培养独立判断。面对成人，他能把抽象的道理与人生阅历、职业责任、家庭关系以及日常生活中的实际挑战相连结。

这种能同时与成人及学生对话的能力，使他在因应不同对象调整语言、例子与讲解方式的同时，仍能保留课题本身的深度。他相信，好的教学不只是知识的传递，更在于理解人如何思考、看清问题背后的问题，并帮助他们以开放而不失明辨的态度去审视各种观念。

在研究方面，他从多重视角研读儒、释、道的教导。他的工作包括研读原典、梳理思想的历史与文化演变、比对传统注疏，并参考现代科学、心理学、教育学与社会科学的相关研究。

他工作的一个核心原则是：不同类别的知识必须清楚区分。科学发现、历史证据、哲学推理、传统诠释、象征性教导与信仰层面的内容，不应被当作具有同一种「证明力」来呈现。

在有科学证据之处，他会审视其强度、局限与实际意义。若某项主张无法以科学检验，他会诚实地将其界定为哲学、象征、传统或信仰层面的内容，而不将其当作已确立的科学事实来呈现。

他的目的，既不是要用科学去证明每一项传统信念，也不是因为某些传统智慧无法被科学量度便加以否定。相反，他致力于在古典智慧与当代知识之间，建立一种审慎而负责任的对话。

凭借身为教育者与研究者的双重经验，他把复杂的材料转化为结构清晰、易于理解、并与不同年龄学习者相关的讲解。透过研究、教学与出版，他支持本会的一份承诺：产出能够被审视、被质疑、被讨论，并在适当情况下于实践中检验的作品。

Ray is an experienced educator and researcher who leads the organisation’s research, curriculum development, and publications. With 30 years in education, much of his career has focused on nurturing high-ability students and helping learners engage thoughtfully with complex ideas.

Educated at The Chinese High School and Hwa Chong Junior College before attending the National University of Singapore, Ray brings to his work a disciplined approach shaped by logical reasoning, critical inquiry, careful comparison, and clear communication.

Over three decades of teaching, he has worked with learners of different ages and backgrounds. This has shaped a simple belief: good teaching is not merely about passing on information. It is about understanding how people think, uncovering the questions behind their questions, and giving them the tools to examine ideas for themselves.

Whether working with young students or adults, Ray seeks to preserve the depth of a subject without making it unnecessarily difficult. Complex ideas are broken down into clear, progressive steps and connected to experiences people recognise, from education and work to family relationships and the challenges of everyday life.

Bringing Ancient Wisdom into Conversation with Modern Knowledge

In his research, Ray examines teachings from Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism from multiple perspectives. This includes studying primary texts, tracing the historical and cultural development of ideas, comparing traditional commentaries, and reviewing relevant research across fields such as science, psychology, education, and the social sciences.

Central to his approach is a commitment to intellectual clarity. Historical evidence, scientific findings, philosophical reasoning, traditional interpretations, symbolic teachings, and matters of faith each offer different ways of understanding, but they should not be presented as though they carry the same kind of evidence.

Where scientific research is relevant, Ray considers not only what the evidence suggests, but also its limitations and practical significance. Where a traditional or spiritual claim cannot be scientifically tested, it is presented accordingly, as philosophical, symbolic, traditional, or faith-based rather than as established scientific fact.

The aim is neither to make science prove every traditional teaching nor to dismiss centuries of wisdom simply because some aspects fall outside scientific measurement. Instead, Ray seeks to create a thoughtful and responsible dialogue between classical wisdom and contemporary knowledge.

Through research, teaching, and publication, his goal is to make complex ideas accessible without losing their depth, and to create work that people are encouraged to examine, question, discuss, and, where appropriate, explore through their own practice.

「我的角色不是要迫使科学与心灵相互认同，而是审慎地检视两者，找出有意义的对话可能之处，并诚实地指出证据止于何处。」 “My role is not to force science and spirituality to agree. It is to examine both carefully, understand where meaningful dialogue is possible, and be honest about where the evidence ends.”

冯所伟是一位航运业专业人士，也是一位丈夫、父亲，以及儒、释、道智慧传统的终身学习者。在全球航运业的职业生涯中，他参与船舶融资、可持续发展、技术尽职调查与策略咨询等工作，支持航运业的长远发展，并推动迈向更为可持续的未来。

他对可持续发展的关注，并不止于环境保护。在他看来，可持续发展的根本，在于平衡与长远的思考：在经济发展与环境责任之间取得平衡，在当下需要与后代福祉之间取得平衡，在个人抱负与群体利益之间取得平衡，也在物质成就与内在充实之间取得平衡。可持续发展，最终是要创造能够持久、并能长远造福人群、社会与自然的成果。

这样的体会，与儒、释、道的教导深深呼应。儒家重视德行、责任、诚信，以及家庭与社会中和谐的关系；佛家强调智慧、慈悲、正念，以及体认万物相互依存的道理；道家则主张顺应自然，拥抱平衡、简朴与生命自然的流转。三家各有独特的视角，合而观之，却共同提供了一个历久弥新的框架，指引人过上平衡而有意义的生活。

这些教导，也深深影响了他的职业生涯。儒家的价值观，指引他以诚信、可靠与对社会的责任感面对工作；佛家的教导，培养他的正念、慈悲，以及在面对复杂挑战时兼顾多重视角的能力；道家的原则，则鼓励他保持灵活、谦逊，并明白可持续的解决之道往往来自顺应变化的因缘，而非试图加以掌控。这些教导合在一起，强化了他驾驭复杂局面、建立有意义的关系、作出平衡决策的能力，也让他专注于创造长远价值，而非追逐短期利益。

身为参与可持续发展工作的专业人士，他看到自己的工作与心灵信念之间有着深刻的契合。可持续发展的理念，正体现了儒家对后代的责任、佛家「一切行为皆有其果」的体认，以及道家维系人与自然和谐的原则。这些视角，坚定了他的信念：负责任的守护，不仅是一项事业目标，更是一份道德责任。

在职业生涯之外，所伟珍视自己身为丈夫与父亲的角色。他相信，家庭是品格、价值观与智慧得以培养的根基。人生许多最重要的功课，例如尊重、感恩、谦逊、坚毅与慈悲，都是在家庭生活中学会的。与孩子一同学习和练习跆拳道，更让他体会到纪律、韧性、不断自我提升与彼此支持的价值。这些经历使他更加坚信：成长是一段终身的旅程，而最好是与所爱之人一同走过。

他相信，真正的成功，并不仅仅以职业成就或物质成果来衡量，而在于一个人能否培养良好的品格、巩固家庭的情感、对社会作出正面的贡献，并为后代留下有意义的传承。透过事业、家庭生活与心灵的修养，他期望活出一种以平衡、智慧、慈悲、责任与终身学习为指引的人生。

在儒、释、道教导的指引下，所伟持续追求这样一个理想：最可持续的人生，是一种活在和谐之中的人生，即与自己、与家庭、与社会、与自然的和谐。他相信，成就有意义人生的原则，也正是通往可持续未来的原则：以诚信行事、培养慈悲、维持平衡、着眼长远，并为后代的福祉贡献一份力量。

Pang Toh Wee is a maritime professional, husband, father, and lifelong student of the wisdom traditions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. Throughout his career in the global maritime industry, he has worked across ship finance, sustainability, technical due diligence, and strategic advisory, contributing to the long-term development of the sector and its transition towards a more sustainable future.

For Toh Wee, sustainability goes far beyond environmental responsibility. At its heart, it is about balance, stewardship, and thinking beyond the present, balancing progress with responsibility, individual aspirations with the collective good, and material achievement with a deeper sense of purpose.

This perspective finds a natural connection with the three traditions he studies. Confucianism speaks to responsibility, integrity, and our relationships with others. Buddhism encourages compassion, mindfulness, and an awareness that our actions have consequences beyond ourselves. Taoism reminds us of the importance of balance, adaptability, and living in harmony with the natural world.

Rather than seeing these teachings as separate from modern life, Toh Wee applies them to the way he approaches both his work and the decisions he makes.

Sustainability as a Way of Living

In his professional life, these principles offer a framework for navigating complexity. Confucian values reinforce integrity and responsibility; Buddhist teachings encourage mindfulness and the ability to consider different perspectives; while Taoist thought brings an appreciation for adaptability and working with changing circumstances rather than constantly seeking to control them.

Together, they have shaped his belief that sustainable progress is rarely about maximising what can be achieved today. It is about making thoughtful decisions that continue to create value tomorrow.

This is particularly relevant to his work in sustainability. He sees responsible stewardship not simply as a corporate objective, but as a responsibility to those who will inherit the consequences of the choices we make today.

Where Cultivation Begins

Beyond his professional life, Toh Wee considers his roles as a husband and father equally important to his understanding of sustainability.

For him, the family is where many of our deepest values are first learned and practised: respect, gratitude, patience, humility, perseverance, and compassion. Even learning and practising Taekwondo alongside his children has become another expression of this journey, reinforcing the importance of discipline, resilience, mutual encouragement, and continuous improvement.

These experiences have shaped his understanding of success. A meaningful life cannot be measured by professional or material achievement alone. It is also reflected in the character we cultivate, the relationships we nurture, the contribution we make to society, and what we leave behind for those who come after us.

For Toh Wee, this is where sustainability and spiritual cultivation ultimately meet.

A sustainable future begins with people who are willing to think beyond themselves, to live with integrity, act with compassion, maintain balance, and recognise their responsibility to the generations that follow.

Guided by Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, he continues to explore a simple but enduring idea: that learning to live well, with ourselves, with our families, with society, and with nature, may be one of the most meaningful forms of sustainability.

「真正的可持续，不是停滞，而是修身。透过不断的省察、用心的践行与循序渐进的提升，我们让自己与生命成长的自然节奏相契合。一旦停止修养自己，便是逆生命之流而行。因此，可持续并非一个终点，而是一段以平衡、更新与蜕变为内涵的终身旅程。」 “True sustainability is not about remaining unchanged. It is about learning, reflecting, and continually refining how we live. Like nature, we grow through cycles of change and renewal. Sustainability is therefore not a destination, but a lifelong practice of balance, responsibility, and becoming.”

嘉傑是一位卓有成就的房地产领导者、策略行销专家与导师。他深信，真正可持续的成功，始于坚定的价值观与正确的教育。

建立信任。培养人才。以智慧领航。

Ryan Lee is an accomplished real estate leader, strategic marketer, and mentor who believes that lasting success begins with strong values, the right education, and a solid foundation.

A Group Division Director with ERA Realty Network for more than a decade, Ryan has built a distinguished career in real estate. He has attained ERA Millionaire status, received the Top Gun distinction, and consistently ranked among the organisation’s leading Group Division Directors. In the second quarter of 2026, he reached another milestone by placing among ERA’s company-wide Top 10 Achievers for the first time.

Yet Ryan believes that achievements are only one part of the story. To him, sustainable success is built through sincerity, professional competence, and, above all, the trust one earns from others.

Developing People, Not Just Results

Throughout his career, Ryan has placed a strong emphasis on mentorship. He has guided agents towards becoming confident and independent professionals, with several going on to achieve Millionaire status and top-ranking positions of their own.

His approach combines practical business fundamentals, understanding clients, managing resources wisely, communicating effectively, and continually improving, with a deeper belief that people perform at their best when they are given the right foundation from which to grow.

For Ryan, leadership is therefore not simply about achieving results. It is about developing people who can eventually create results of their own.

Marketing as Education and Service

As Head of Marketing of the Eightfold Path Jiang Taigong Society, Ryan brings this same philosophy to the way the Society communicates its teachings.

His approach is influenced by the traditions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism: the Confucian emphasis on integrity and self-cultivation; the Buddhist principles of Right View, Right Speech, and Right Action; and the Taoist appreciation for balance, adaptability, and knowing when to act.

Inspired also by the strategic wisdom traditionally associated with Jiang Taigong, Ryan sees marketing as more than promotion. At its best, marketing helps people understand before they decide, trust before they commit, and connect with ideas that may genuinely benefit their lives.

This philosophy shapes his role within the Society: to make its teachings accessible without diminishing their depth, to communicate with sincerity rather than persuasion, and to help build a community grounded in learning, trust, and shared values.

His journey reflects a principle at the heart of the Society’s work, that with the right values, education, and mentorship, people can develop not only into capable individuals, but into ethical and compassionate leaders for those who follow.

Building Trust. Developing People. Leading with Wisdom.

「没有坚实的根基，人将难以创造任何有价值的成果。」 “Without a strong foundation, it is difficult to build anything of lasting value.”

身为慈善与社会关怀总监，秀莉统领本会的慈善事务，以及在更广大社群中的各项工作。她的重心，在于教育。她建立各项计划与合作，将善念化为长久的善行，深信教育一人，便能改变其后追随者的一生。此前，她已为本会的成长贡献良多，包括建立本会的数码平台；如今，她致力于奠定一份能够超越一时一季、恒久长存的布施根基。

这份重心，源自她自己的人生。在家庭经济困顿中成长，秀莉亲眼看见，安稳可以何等迅速地崩塌，周遭的人也随之离散；也见证了母亲一心要让她接受教育的决心，如何改变了此后的一切。这在她心中留下了一份始终不渝的信念：教育与品格，远比境遇更能塑造一个人的人生走向。

十七年来，她从事财务规划，专精于退休与传承规划。她的理念，始终将一个人真正的福祉置于任何交易之前。她从不将自己的专业与价值观分开看待；于她而言，二者始终合一。

这些价值观，根植于儒释道。中华传统早已将儒、释、道三家之教，融汇为一种完整的生活之道。三者共同型塑了她如何工作、如何布施：儒家对教育与品格的执守，佛家不以私利凌驾他人福祉的慈悲，以及道家以柔胜刚、信守中和的智慧。

秀莉持守着一个朴素的准则，凝练于一句她时常回味的话：别白活。人生，一如财富，其价值不在于积累了多少，而在于培育了什么、又留下了什么。

Rebecca Ng leads the Society’s philanthropic initiatives and community partnerships, with a particular focus on education and creating opportunities that can continue to make a difference long after the initial act of giving.

For Rebecca, philanthropy is not simply about giving more. It is about giving in a way that creates lasting impact.

This belief is deeply personal.

Growing up through a period of financial hardship, Rebecca experienced how quickly a family’s sense of security could change. What remained constant was her mother’s determination to ensure that she received an education. Looking back, Rebecca sees that commitment as one of the defining forces in her life.

It shaped a conviction she continues to carry today: our circumstances may influence where we begin, but education, values, and the choices we make can change where we go from there.

From Financial Legacy to Human Legacy

For 17 years, Rebecca has worked in financial planning, with a particular focus on retirement and legacy planning. Her work has given her a close view of how people think about security, family, responsibility, and what they hope to leave behind.

Over time, this has also broadened her understanding of legacy.

A legacy is not only the wealth we leave to the next generation. It is also the knowledge we share, the values we pass on, the opportunities we create, and the lives that may be different because we chose to contribute.

This is the philosophy she brings to her role in philanthropy and community impact: to build programmes and partnerships that go beyond short-term assistance and create the conditions for people to grow for themselves.

Giving as a Form of Cultivation

Rebecca’s approach is grounded in the wisdom she draws from Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism.

From Confucianism comes her belief in education, responsibility, and integrity. From Buddhism, she draws compassion and the reminder that another person’s wellbeing should never be secondary to personal gain. From Taoism comes an appreciation for balance, the understanding that meaningful change cannot always be forced, but can be nurtured by creating the right conditions for it to unfold.

These principles shape both how she works and how she gives.

For Rebecca, philanthropy is therefore not separate from personal cultivation. Giving asks us to look beyond ourselves, to recognise our responsibility to others, and to consider what our lives will contribute long after we are gone.

She often returns to a simple Chinese phrase: 别白活, Don’t Live in Vain.

To Rebecca, it is a reminder that a meaningful life is not measured only by what we achieve or accumulate, but by what we cultivate, whom we uplift, and what we leave behind.

「佛教于我，并非一种宗教，而是一种哲学，一种生活方式。这份教诲，是我行事为人的道德指南。于我而言，这才是真正的财富与修养。」 “I experience Buddhist teachings not simply as something to study, but as a philosophy I can live by. They give me a moral compass for the choices I make, the way I treat people, and the kind of legacy I hope to leave behind. To me, that is where true wealth and cultivation begin.”

身为法务主管，麗清 在多年的专业生涯中，经常需要处理法律规范、责任界定及各种复杂情况。然而，随着岁月与经验的累积，她逐渐体会到：法律虽然能够为人们提供规范与方向，但人生中的许多问题，并非单靠条文与规则就能找到答案。

法律工作的历练，使她学会认真倾听、从不同角度审视问题，并避免在尚未充分了解事实之前仓促下结论。同时，这段经历也让她更加重视诚信与正直，尤其是在面对艰难抉择时，选择正确的道路，往往未必是最容易或最便利的选择。

这些经验，也逐渐塑造了她面对个人修行之路的态度。

本会致力于汲取儒、释、道三家的智慧，同时鼓励真诚地求知、探索与反思，这一点令她深感认同。

法律训练使她习惯在下结论之前，先提出疑问、深入审视并力求理解。同样地，她相信，修行的教导唯有经过个人的反思与亲身体验，并逐渐落实于日常生活之中，才能真正展现其意义与价值。

在八正道之中，「正见」「正语」与「正业」对她尤其具有深刻的意义。

正见，是不被成见与假设蒙蔽，如实清楚地看待事情；正语，是以真实、善意和体谅之心说话；正业，则是在行动与抉择中坚守正直与道德。

这些不仅是供人学习与思考的理想，更是能够落实在人际关系、工作态度，以及每日无数细微选择中的修行实践。

她也非常认同本会对于品格培养及回馈社会的重视。对她而言，修行不仅是为了提升自己。当我们的觉察与理解逐渐加深，也应当变得更加慈悲、更有责任感，并时刻留意自己的言语与行为会如何影响他人。

她将修行视为一段终身的旅程，而非一个最终的目的地。在这条道路上，永远都有更多值得学习的智慧、更多需要反思的课题，以及更多能够付诸实践的机会。

在法律专业与心灵修行并行的旅程中，她始终回到一个简单而深刻的体悟：

As a Head of Legal, Lay Cheng has spent much of her professional life navigating rules, responsibilities and complex situations. Yet over the years, she has come to appreciate that while the law can provide structure and direction, not every question in life can be answered by rules alone.

Her legal journey has taught her to listen carefully, examine different perspectives and avoid rushing to conclusions. It has also shown her the importance of integrity, especially in difficult situations, when doing what is right may not always be the easiest or most convenient path.

These experiences have shaped the way she approaches her own journey of cultivation.

What resonates deeply with her is the Society’s commitment to learning from the wisdom of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, while encouraging sincere inquiry and reflection.

Her legal training naturally leads her to question, examine and understand before reaching a conclusion. Similarly, she believes that spiritual teachings become truly meaningful when we reflect upon them, experience them for ourselves and gradually put them into practice in our daily lives.

The principles of Right View, Right Speech and Right Action have particular meaning for her. To see a situation clearly without being clouded by assumptions, to speak with truthfulness and consideration, and to act with integrity are not merely ideals to study, they are practices that can be applied in our relationships, our work and the many small decisions we make each day.

She also connects strongly with the Society’s emphasis on character development and contributing to the wider community. To her, cultivation is not only about improving oneself. As we gain greater awareness and understanding, we should also become more compassionate, responsible and mindful of how our words and actions affect others.

She sees cultivation as a lifelong journey rather than a destination. There will always be more to learn, more to reflect upon and more opportunities to practise.

Through her journey in both law and spiritual learning, she continues to return to one simple reflection:

「法律可以规范我们的行为，而智慧，才能引领我们的内心。」“The law may guide our actions, but wisdom guides our hearts.”
