Threefold Training; Promoting Peace; Jinarakkhita Buddhist College; Buddhist Peaceful Means
摘要
This study has three objectives: 1) to explore the problems of undergraduate students at Jinarakkhita Buddhist College (JBC), 2) to study the process of promoting peace through Buddhist Peaceful Means, and 3) to propose the process of promoting peace based on Buddhist Peaceful Means for undergraduate students at JBC. The data collection methods employed in this research encompassed documentary analysis and in-depth interviews, with the research methodology adopting an inductive content analysis approach.
The outcomes of the study encompass the identification of the issues encountered by undergraduate students at JBC, an examination of the process of promoting peace in line with Buddhist Peaceful Means, and the proposition of a strategy for fostering peace among JBC’s undergraduate students based on Buddhist Peaceful Means. Through the analysis of the gathered data, the researcher advocates for the implementation of a peace promotion strategy grounded in Buddhist Peaceful Means for the undergraduate student body at Jinarakkhita Buddhist College. This strategy, termed PKRW (Peaceful facilities, Kind community, Right communication, Wise heart), emphasizes the importance of specific amenities for negotiation and mediation, as well as cultivating a positive school environment. Furthermore, the formation of a supportive community, encompassing familial support and positive friendships, is deemed pivotal in this process. Effective communication practices such as collaborative problem-solving, open dialogue, and active listening are essential components, while the cultivation of qualities like empathy, mindfulness, and compassion are encapsulated within the concept of the wise heart. The application of Buddhist peaceful means within the PKRW framework reflects the essence of the Threefold Training (comprising the Five Precepts, mindfulness, and wisdom through learning). The proposed framework underscores the enhancement of individual and collective well-being, utilizing Buddhist peaceful means to address student issues and foster a peaceful environment. By integrating facilities, community support, effective communication, and mental training within academic settings, the cultivation of inner and outer peace can be achieved. These key elements are integral in promoting peace among undergraduate students, leading to overall improvements in college performance and sustainability.
