The study reveals that the aesthetic of wonder, or Adbhutarasa, which is associated with feelings of astonishment and marvel, is the most prominent in the narrative, as the author seeks to imbue the Buddhist legend with a sense of sanctity and reverence. This is achieved through linking the stories of Princess Hemma Chala with Prince Than Tha Kumarn, his royal sibling, along with King Sri Thammasokarat and Princess Lued Kao, to supernatural phenomena such as the storm quelled by the miraculous powers of a Naga king, which eventually calms due to the Buddha’s relics’ sanctity. This event marks the inception of the construction of the Great Stupa – Nakhon Si Thammarat. By incorporating all nine aesthetic expressions into the legend, the author ensures its persistence in society and accentuates the significance of the Great Stupa - Nakhon Si Thammarat, making it stand out more prominently. The legend’s influence extends to the present era, fostering cultural tourism, as contemporary society leverages the legend to highlight the Great Stupa - Nakhon Si Thammarat as a key Buddhist pilgrimage site and cultural tourist destination.</p> 2024-02-22T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/268333 Comparative study of property management according to religious principles: A case study of the Sajja Sasomsap Group, Wat Phai Lom, Trat Province. with Kasikorn Khok Wat Development Credit Union Cooperative Limited, Prachinburi Province 2024-04-23T15:30:02+07:00 Phrakhru Supajarasopit Boonyuen Subhācāro 6201101004@mcu.ac.th Sawaeng Nilnama 6201101004@mcu.ac.th Praves Intongpan 6201101004@mcu.ac.th <p>This research has the following objectives: 1) To study property management according to Buddhist principles of the Sajja Samasap Group, Wat Phai Lom. 2) To study property management according to Christian principles of Kasikorn Khok Wat Credit Union Cooperative Limited. and 3) to compare property management according to Buddhist principles of the Sajja Sasomsap Wat Phai Lom group with property management according to Christian principles of the Kasikorn Khok Wat Credit Union Cooperative Limited.

By studying mainly from documents. The findings were found that Belief in “ghosts” is a traditional human belief that has existed for a long time and appears in various societies in every era. In Thai Buddhist society, there is the same belief in this matter as in another ethnic group. The beliefs about “ghosts” whilst we studied and analyzed as a whole, can be divided into 3 types: 1. High-class ghosts or good ghosts, including the category of “Gods/Deva” which can be divided into high-class gods and general gods 2. Middle class ghosts or ghosts that are evenly matched between good and bad (half good half evil), which can be divided into several groups, including ghosts of human-made, ghosts of the country and places of residence, ghosts of ancestors, etc. 3. Low-level ghosts or evil ghosts, which can be divided into evil ghosts that generally exist in nature and evil ghosts in hell, due to the "ghosts" are "power symbols" which emphasize "meaning" rather than "truth." Therefore, the beliefs and rituals of Thai Buddhists thus, coming to play a large role in society. By being involved in human life from birth until death and involves setting rules that affect social organization. This is because belief in the power of “ghosts” influences the behavior of individuals in society. When we studied and analyzed as a whole, it is enough to classify the social role of beliefs and rituals regarding the worship of "ghosts" into several characteristics. The roles that appear quite clearly include those related to the preservation of natural resources, and Occupational roles, including the role in cultivating of morale and encouragement, it is also the role in building individual empowerment and the role of gambling and divination.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/267937 Meat consumption and forms of cancer treatment using Buddhist practices 2023-10-29T09:39:03+07:00 Em-orn Saelim emornsaelim@gmail.com Phisit Kotsupho emornsaelim@gmail.com Jaiphet Klajon emornsaelim@gmail.com <p>This article entitled to study the dangers of eating meat. that cause cancer and alternative medical health care by using the study of documents Related books and articles the results of the study found that meat has an effect on physical health.

It is the studies of the numerous documents, including the Tripitaka, Commentaries, and also in Thai and English Texts. The results were found that: The principle of loving-kindness (Metta) in the Sutta. It is a principle that the Buddha taught in giving love to all beings in the world.

It is divided into 3 parts: 1) The meaning and goal of loving-kindness (Metta) due to the kindness in various religions in this world, there are focusing on making humans loved, good wishes for each other to live together peacefully. Metta is therefore a universal principle to prevent exploitation in society. The principle of loving-kindness in Buddhism, therefore, has an important meaning and goal, which is to create love and good wishes with a pure heart in living life, is being free from passion, lust, and prejudice. 2) The meaning and goal of quality-of-life development is the need for change to insight the good things occurred in life or society.

It was found that the Buddhist philosophy never recorded the birth of the cosmos but is destructions by fire, water and wind but mostly by fire. The Theravadan Cosmos was centered by Phra Sumeru Mountain having suns and moons circled around, having 4 subcontinents as its satellites, etc. The Cosmos was subject to the rules of Tilakknana, too. As of Astrology in the Theravada was counted as the exit of the belief and the alleviations of emotion and mind for human over thousands of years even before the Buddhist era. Though it may contradict the Buddhist doctrines which offered to belief in the Kamma scripts and self-reliance; His Lord prohibited monks and novices to study and to raise one’s life in animalist subjects. Dissents were subjected to the rule’s ecclesiastical offence However, His Lord permitted to learn lunar calendar to count the date of Pãtimokkha practices and allowed the forest monks to learn constellation subjects.

The findings were summarized as follows. Paradigm and its application aids in educational administration paradigm. The theory provides profound insights into the adaptability and interconnectedness between paradigm and the contextual framework of educational administration. The concept of Chaos theory facilitates a profound comprehension of the phenomenon of shifting paradigm during periods of volatility and uncertainty. The COVID-19 pandemic has served as a catalyst for transforming educational administration paradigm during the transition to the era of New Normal. It has also accelerated various megatrends, leading to a significant digital disruption as digital technologies have become integral in facilitating socially distanced lifestyles. The concept of a New Normal leadership is an emerging idea that has been developed to emphasize the importance of adaptability and flexibility in facing challenges in the New Normal era. The VUCA framework serves as a tool for explaining the educational landscape in the new normal, providing an understanding of the context relevant to educational administration and the paradigms that occur during this time period. While the distinction between the characteristics of resilience and flexibility is a significant aspect in understanding the evolving landscape of educational leadership in the new normal era.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/260560 The Punishment for Rehabilitation in the perspective of Buddhist philosophy 2022-12-29T06:47:55+07:00 Phramaha Wichian Sudhiro phramahawichian29@gmail.com <p>This article aims to study the theory of the purpose of punishment in the perspective of Buddhist philosophy with the study method from related documents and research. The study results found that Buddhist philosophy supports the theory of punishment for rehabilitation rather than the theory of punishment for retribution. The supporting reasons are (1) Both perpetrators and victims share the exact Buddha nature that can develop themselves to be good people. (2) Greed, anger, and delusion often dominate humans. But humans can reduce their desires and set themselves to be good people. (3) The use of violence by the state cannot lead to solving the problem. However, using violence to solve problems will only create more problems, as mentioned in the Chakkawatti Sutta. (4) Punishment in the Sangha's Vinaya does not have physical punishment. But the Sangha's Vinaya emphasizes punishment to improve and provide education to offenders. And (5) Buddhist philosophy has the concept of rehabilitating serial killers, as shown in Angulimala Sutta. This suggestion of Buddhist philosophy can be applied to improve Thailand's punishment and justice system, which should give importance to restorative justice rather than retributive justice.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/269285 Worship of Phra Sivali of Buddhists in Thai society 2024-04-23T09:37:47+07:00 Phrasamu Pongsakron Kittiko (Naksakul) Pongsakronjack64@gmail.com <p>This article is to study the worship of Phra Sivali of Buddhists in Thai society. It was found that Phra Sivali was a monk who attained athwartship during the Buddha's time. He is a monk who is excellent in wealth. From research, the elder monk was a person who did not have a clinging mind or strive to gain wealth for himself. But because of his merit, he brings good fortune to those who have faith and faith, who must build merit and practice morality in the Dhamma from past lives, but Thai society knows Phra Sivali Thera as a symbol of good luck and fortune. Idols were made. Based on the belief that he can bring good fortune to those who worship him. It can be seen that Phra Sivali is important in both merit and bad karma. Buddhists in Thai society therefore believe only in the one-sided benefit of merit.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/270532 Bhaya-bherava Sutta: Fear Management by Buddhist Methods 2024-06-20T10:55:13+07:00 Ramihda Farpinyaayo farpin6395@gmail.com Phramaha Adidej Sativaro rhamida565@gmail.com <p>This academic article explains about fear management by Buddhist methods. Fear is the primary emotion of human being all ages. When human feels fear in something, he reacts in many ways. If there is abundant fear in one’s mind, it may be impact to his mind in bad way and will result in his daily life. There are many ways to manage scare. One of them is the method which Buddha recommended human in Bhaya-bherava Sutta. The results of the study were found that: Bhaya-bherava Sutta was the Sutta in Majjhima-Nikaya Mulapannasaka which Buddha explained the 16 causes of fear and he also described the 16 causes of fearlessness, those were the opposite of the causes of fear. In addition, Buddha said that since he was not yet enlightened; if he had felt fear in any posture, he had continued to remain in that posture until the fear was eliminated. To accomplish great deeds with mindfulness, Buddha’s mind was concentrated, up to the point that he attained the four jhanas and the three vijjas respectively. The one who pursues this model as a guideline for living with good quality of daily life, he can reduce or get rid of fear appropriately. If he carries on life according to this guideline, he can develop his mind up to the 4 jhanas and he will finally attain the 3 vijjas. Ultimately, his mind will be liberated from all defilements which is called nibbana or absolutely end of suffering or dukkha.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/273337 Making Friends according to Buddhist principles 2024-05-30T14:46:05+07:00 Mae Chee Boonchuay Sriprem Yota.chai.1339@gmail.com Yota Chaiworamankul Yota.chai.1339@gmail.com <p>This article aims to study associating with people according to the Buddha's teachings, the persons who you are with must use wisdom to observe the behavior of the persons who you are with. If the persons we are with are a friend encourage one to do the bad action, which is to think only of bad things, saying only bad words and doing only bad things. This is characteristic of a bad person. While a good person likes to be a good friend. It consists of the meritorious actions: he thinks only good things, speaks only good words, and does good things. This is the characteristic of a wise man. The result of associating with good and bad people is that associating with bad people cancels out both benefits: the present benefits and benefits in the next world. Associating with good people is auspicious. Because associating with good people brings happiness in this world and the next, and the highest benefit is nirvana. Therefore, it is the most auspicious thing in Buddhism.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/269065 A Buddhist Concept of Mind and its Location 2023-11-21T16:37:11+07:00 Phra Sujan maharjan sujanbhante@gmail.com <p> “What is mind and where is it located?” Whilst the question is rather simple in form, to answer it begs a profundity and insightfulness, which was immensely wide yet simple. It is therefore a breath-taking and daunting task to answer, which has been philosophically debated in the East and West for centuries. The philosophical and spiritual value of the question may have been deep or quintessential, it would not be possible to illustrate and explore this deep and fundamental aspects here, but rather intends to closer look and understand the concept of the mind and its location in Buddhism, including some western thought on the concept of mind, which is one of the important factors for the cultivation of mind until to achieve liberation.</p> 2024-06-30T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review
