Foundation of expanding the Good
District: R3 H3 C2
Name of the Game: Foundation of expanding the Good

Brief explanation:
The importance of the game is for Junior Division to learn through it, and deeply understand the importance of the main topic on that day. The topic to be demonstrated today will act in concert with the Study Meet, which is “Foundation of expanding the good”. (The topics of the Junior Division Meeting in this district often act in concert with the study material of the Study Meet of the same month.)

Tools:
“Paper ball” – Firstly, write down the questions on the papers, then prepare packs of candy, and wrap the packs of candy up with the papers with questions wrote on it previously.

Procedure:
1. The game is easy. Just ask the Junior Division to sit in a circle. Then, passing the paper ball to the next person while the music plays, While the music stops, the one holding the ball and the one to the right and left of him/her, would have to stand up. The one holding the ball will then have to open up a layer and follow the instructions in the paper. The 3 of them would have to do what is told in the paper.
2. The layers of papers will have to contain an act of “good” overcoming “evil”. For example, there could be a paper saying “I’m not good in knowing friends, thus I will have to shake hands with all the Junior Division and introduce myself”. This game will also provide an unexpected surprise where they never know what instructions they could get.
3. Some of them might get the problem which is exactly their weakness. Thus, PIC must understand all of them by stopping the music at the right time, as to provide a chance for them to overcome their own weakness. The last layer of paper will be written “good” with the pack of candy in it. This is to tell them that people who overcame their problems are good.

Conclusion:
This game is to illustrate the side of “good”(buddha-hood) in human. Thus, everyone must continuously overcome their weakness in order to expand the “good” in us. Sometimes people commit evil acts because there’s a large “devil” living in their heart. When we’re excelling ourselves, in the same time, we’re compressing the “devil”, showing the good’s side.
