The study analyzes data from documents, government policies, and public opinions related to waste segregation. The findings reveal that key factors contributing to the problem include a lack of infrastructure for waste segregation, waste management systems that are inconsistent with waste segregation policies in terms of collection and disposal methods, and insufficient public awareness campaigns to promote citizen participation. Including proposing improvements to the waste segregation system, such as educating the public about waste segregation, developing waste management technologies, and creating economic incentives. This academic article highlights the urgent need for concrete actions to achieve sustainable waste management and mitigate environmental impacts.</p> Sittichai Kritvivat Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280654 Mon, 03 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700 Management of Educational Resources of Buddhist Schools According to the Principles of Seven Sappayas https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/279914 <p>This article has objectives to study management of educational resources of Buddhist schools according to the principles of 7 Sappaya.

Therefore, viewed from this angle, it shows that Buddhadãsa Bhikkhu argued against Theravada Buddhist philosophical ideas ones in action towards certain expectation, but did agree whit the results of such an act.

The research employed a qualitative methodology, with data collected through interviews with seven key informants and focus group discussions with seven students, selected based on predetermined criteria using purposive sampling. The tools used for data collection included three main components: an interview guide focusing on current learning management models for developing future thinking skills, a discussion guide for student focus groups, and an interview guide for exploring the development of learning management models based on environmental issues. The collected data were analyzed using content analysis and presented in descriptive narrative form. The findings revealed two main points. 1) while future thinking skills are not explicitly addressed in the curriculum, they are indirectly integrated into teaching practices through diverse learning approaches. However, challenges were identified, including differences in students' lifestyles, a lack of basic skills, and constraints related to teachers' time and professional development opportunities. 2) the development of learning management models should emphasize the integration of content from various disciplines, connecting knowledge to real-life contexts. Environmental issues should serve as the foundation for teaching, with strategies such as inquiry-based learning, simulations, and experiential learning playing a central role. Additionally, the use of modern educational tools and media can enhance students' analytical thinking skills and understanding of environmental issues. This approach aims to transform students into Active Learners, capable of applying their knowledge in their everyday lives.</p> Thanakrit Chitarree, Atchara Sriphan, Rangsan ket-ord , Parinya Soithong Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280595 Thu, 30 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 A Model of Application of Baladhamma for the Academic Administration of School Administrator under the Office of Basic Education Commission Ministry of Education https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280623 <p>The objectives of this research were: 1) to study the components of the application of principles of morality in academic administration by administrators of educational institutions under the Office of the Basic Education Commission, 2) to create a model for the application of principles of morality in academic administration by administrators of educational institutions under the Office of the Basic Education Commission, using mixed research methods (Mixed Methods Research).

This research employed the documentary research methodology done by studying documents and then analyzing reasons and thereby evaluating reasons and then making conclusion accordingly. In the research, it was clearly found that: 1) in the concept of speech act of Austin, he viewed language as not only containing the true and false value but also performing something. As regards Searle’s idea, he viewed language used by man while communicating as illocutionary act. 2) When applied these concepts to examine language used in Sanghagamma they showed that the used language has the characteristic of speech act that continually functions on the necessary condition of Sanghagamma, therefore, the successfulness of Sanghagamma could be actualized by these functions according to Austin’s viewpoint, but Searle is of the view that such a speech act is clearly caused by psychological state that precipitates the speech act, so does the language in Sanghagamma; there will be speech act responded by a listener leading to the independent making certain decision. All is the study of the case where language is used by one who understands its meaning. Therefore, these concepts could not be used to explain language used in Sanghagamma where the user cannot understand the meaning of such language. Thus, the concept of language given by Austin and Searle could not be used to explain the language used in the present Sanghagamma. 3) In this research, it critically analyzes the problem caused by the case of one whose understanding of language is not present and then argues that the function of language used in Sanghagamma in Buddhist philosophical viewpoint does not only contain the condition that certify such Sanghagamma but also perform speech act to those who have faith in Pali regarded as the original language used in the mentioned Sanghagamma. However, the speech act arising in Sanghagamma of those who understand the meaning of language and of those who do not will vary. While in the former the function of speech act involves the utilization of intention the latter focuses on the usage of emotion.</p> Phramaha Khunpon Samacitto (Klaysuwan) Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/274058 Thu, 30 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 The Future of Educational Supervision in the Next Decade for the Small Primary Schools https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280859 <p>This dissertation aims to study the future of educational supervision in the next decade for the small primary schools.

These include arrests, detentions, prosecutions, sentencing, and enforcement of sentences. Social criticism has a negative effect on the image of Buddhism. The detention of monks who are accused of criminal charges and who are not allowed to be temporarily released. A specific place to stay should be arranged as a special measure. Detention must be separated from laypeople. There should be a Vinayathorn involved in the investigation. The National Office of Buddhism and the Royal Thai Police should review the temporary release pending consideration. There is a process for reinstating the clerical title. The Sangha Supreme Council should review the judicial process of the Sangha. As for the process of establishing an ecclesiastical court of justice in Thailand, it should not be established yet because the volume of cases is not large. Not having sufficient value Establishing a department must consist of two important parts: a budget and personnel. Only one ecclesiastical constitution should be prepared. There are guidelines for monkhood under consideration. That is, there was Vinayathorn involved in the investigation. A place of detention for monks should be arranged, separate from laypeople.</p> Thatdaow Chomluk Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/272835 Thu, 30 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 A Comparative Study of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's Concept of Freedom in the Social Contract and Mikhail Bakunin's Concept of Freedom in Anarchy https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/278360 <p>The research article titled "A Comparative Study of the Concept of Freedom in the Social Contract of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the Concept of Freedom in Anarchism of Mikhail Bakunin" aims to study, analyze, and compare the concepts of freedom according to Rousseau and Bakunin. In the research, it was clearly found that, on the one hand, according to Jean-Jaques Rousseau’s viewpoint, the real freedom is created by the way people are under the law which reflects on general will through the process of constructing social contract whereby it will become the essential key in establishing the just state. Under this, the state’s duty is to protect the freedom and justice by limitation of the oppression which would be precipitated by external force, on the other hand, according to Michael Bakunin’s viewpoint, he holds that the state is the enemy of freedom because the state is always inclined to control and oppress citizen and then he comes to propose that the state and various institutions should be wiped out in order to construct the anarchy which decentralizes the center of power where people can govern themselves completely. From the comparison of the proposed concepts of freedom, it clearly showed that although both Rousseau and Bakunin similarly aim at the creation of freedom to human being, yet their ways completely vary. While Rousseau is of the view that the just state can be used as the instrument leading to the promotion of freedom, Bakunin lays emphasis on the obstacle of freedom caused by the state. If both concepts of freedom are properly integrated, then it would establish the state that decentralize the power justly through following the general will which promotes individual freedom and the direct form of Democracy is used to decentralize the center of power including the protection of oppression done by the state.</p> Nutawut Thanadhammo Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/278360 Thu, 30 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 Promoting Pilgrim Route of Chinese Shrine in New Normal Cultural Tourism https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280580 <p>The objectives of this research are: 1) to study promoting pilgrim route of Chinese shrine in Phranakhon District Bangkok, 2) the readiness of shrine stakeholders and 3) satisfaction of tourists towards New normal cultural tourism.

The research is a qualitative study by studying and collecting information from the Tipitaka, Hindu religious scriptures such as Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, related research, religious dialogue, and interview religious scholars, Thai traditional medicine scholars, and patient groups. The results of the study were found that: Buddhism sees breath as the breath and the wind that flows throughout the body. The use of breath in Buddhism for healing is to treat diseases that occur both in the mind and those that are expressed through behavior. Brahmanism-Hinduism is the breath or the main wind or the feeling energy that has wind spreading above the head and has a main point in the brain. When moving down to the chest and throat, it controls inhalation and swallowing, as well as sneezing, spitting and burping, controlling the senses, mind, heart and consciousness. It is a part of the characteristics of the body's movement and is the energy that makes the body survive. Comparing of the influence of beliefs on Pana to heal the disease in the view of Thai traditional medicine between Buddhism and Brahmanism – Hinduism, it can be summarized as follows: Buddhism understands that when there is a cause and a factor, it will be equal to the result that creates mindfulness. For Hinduism, breath must be trained to control the breath so that the breath can help us reach concentration. Therefore, the body and mind must be related because the mind is what controls the body. Therefore, no matter how well we take care of our bodies, our bodies will deteriorate over time. When the body deteriorates, we must take care of both body and mind.</p> Amphai Chaichonlasub Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/276837 Thu, 30 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 A Comparative Study of the Ideas of the Death and Funeral Arrangements in Theravada Buddhism and Brahmin-Hinduism https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/276836 <p>The objectives of this research article are: 1) to study the beliefs of the death and funeral arrangements in Theravada Buddhism, 2) to study the beliefs of the death and funeral arrangements in the Brahmin-Hinduism, and 3) to comparative study the beliefs of death and funeral arrangements in Theravada Buddhism and Brahmin-Hinduism. This research is a qualitative study by studying and collecting information from the Tripitaka and the Vedas texts including the research papers. The results of study were found that: By conclusion, Buddhism and Brahmin-Hinduism have the same view that “A funeral ceremony is a ritual performed by a living person to support and promote the deceased” followings the path to happiness as the living person hopes. For the difference opinions, (1) Buddhism is only making merit to encourage the deceased. (2) Brahmin-Hinduism aims to beg the gods to grant what they wish for the deceased to be happy, which is divided into 2 types: (1) funerals for innocent people, such as priests, and (2) funerals for ordinary people. On different issues, Buddhism is divided into (1) funeral rites for monks and (2) for lay people. The details of the ceremony vary according to qualifications, royal title. But overall, Emphasis will be placed on cremation, not discrimination on caste and rank. The Brahmin-Hinduism classifies funeral ceremonies into 2 items by referring to (1) the funeral ceremony without cremation for those who are considered holy, such as priests, and (2) the cremation ceremony is a general ceremony. Anyways, all persons and funeral ceremonies are divided according to social castes. However, there is also a method according to religious beliefs, which is to burn it and float it in the Ganges River to lead the soul to heaven.</p> PhrakrusangkharakThanawat Techadhammo (Khummuang) Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/276836 Thu, 30 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0700 The Administrator’s Competencies and School Effectiveness under Narathiwat Primary Educational Service Area Office 2 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/279098 <p>This research aimed to determine: 1) the competency of school administrators under the Narathiwat Primary Educational Service Area Office 2; 2) the effectiveness of schools under the Narathiwat Primary Educational Service Area Office 2; and 3) the relationship between administrator competency and school effectiveness under the Narathiwat Primary Educational Service Area Office 2.

This research employed the qualitative research methodology done by collecting data from field research through in-depth interview and non-participative observation. The research results showed that: In the present society, the Buddhist monks’ behaviour in using technology is somehow inseparable from their context of living life where its usage can be divided into three aspects: 1) in the education 2) in the communication 3) in the entertainment. The current usage of technology by monks has negative effects in three ways: 1) stimulating passion, 2) mingling with groups, and 3) indulging in entertainment. In the development of the mental training model in accordance with four foundations of mindfulness to reduce Kāmaguṇa of the Buddhist monks in using technology, mindfulness on four bases needs to be focused: 1) one should be mindful on body and its behaviour, 2) one should be mindful on feeling, 3) one should be mindful on one’s consciousness, and 4) one should be mindful on the functioning sense-bases. Hence, to gain the mentioned bases, Buddhist monks in the present time need to get mind and themselves trained through the holistic manner. The alleviation of Model of Kāmaguṇa from the usage of Buddhist monks’ information and communication technology in current society needs three types of structural competency model where it consists in the followings: 1) being full awareness, 2) it needs good friendship 3) it needs the effectiveness of the process where time, determination and study are used so that the holistic training.</p> Phra Thiradet Tejadhammo (Hiran), Phramaha Tawee Mahapañño, Maechee Kritsana Raksachom Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/277122 Sun, 02 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700 The Guidelines of Phenomenon-Based Learning Management to Develop Social Intelligence Among Global Citizens for High School Students https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280715 <p>The objectives of this research article were: 1) to study current instructional models in The Social Studies, Religion, and Culture Department, and 2) to study the guidelines of phenomenon-based learning management for developing social Intelligence among global citizens for high school students. This is the qualitative research. To collect data by interviewing from secondary school, university professors, educational supervisor, social studies scholar, and high school students. The research instrument was an interview guide focusing on instructional models in The Social Studies, Religion, and Culture Department for developing social intelligence among global citizens. The collected data were analyzed using content analysis and descriptive writing. The research results were as follows: 1) The results of current instructional models for developing social intelligence among global citizens are not directly mentioned core in the curriculum. The models align with the core curriculum framework, allowing teachers to integrate content to enhance skills in various contexts. However, limitations were identified in connecting content to real-world situations, as teaching primarily focuses on lecturing and achieving predetermined learning outcomes due to assessment and evaluation using the same standard. 2)The results of the guidelines of phenomenon-based learning management to develop social Intelligence among global citizens for high school students emphasizes self-directed learning, hands-on practices, and analytical skills to address social issues. This approach encourages critical reflection, knowledge exchange, and the application of social phenomena to real-life contexts. The evaluation process employs authentic and diverse assessment methods. It aims to develop students’ competencies to adapt to global changes while fostering an awareness of their role as global citizens. Furthermore, it fosters a sense of global citizenship, enabling students to socially intelligent among global citizens.</p> Sakoonthip Phromrangka, Atchara Sriphan Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280715 Sun, 02 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700 The Guidelines of Phenomenon-Based Learning Management to Develop Digital Empathy of Secondary School Students in Lamphun https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280714 <p>The objectives of this research article were to: 1) study the current state of learning management and 2) explore approaches to phenomenon-based learning management to develop empathy in the cyber world among lower secondary school students in Lamphun Province. This qualitative research included seven key informants: three experienced teachers, two university lecturers, one educational supervisor, and one psychologist, selected through purposive sampling. The research instrument used was an interview guide with in-depth questions, and the data were analyzed through content analysis and presented descriptively. The research findings revealed that the current state of learning management showed a lack of specific curricula to develop empathy in the cyber world, with teaching primarily following the Basic Education Core Curriculum. Teaching methods were content-focused without connections to real-world cyber issues, although diverse techniques and integration with social studies were observed. Regarding the roles of teachers, some lacked understanding of digital citizenship, while others acted as advisors, listened to students, and served as good role models. However, students were found to have a relatively low awareness of empathy in the cyber world. For the phenomenon-based learning approach to develop empathy in the cyber world, it is recommended to use real-life phenomena close to students’ experiences. This would enhance their understanding of emotions, foster respect for differences, encourage polite communication, raise awareness of the impact of online behavior, and promote empathy in the cyber world.</p> Suriyaporn Yanatan, Atchara Sriphan Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280714 Sun, 02 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700 A Critical Study of the Donation of Vessantara from an Existentialist Perspective https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280696 <p>The donation of Vessantara becomes a controversial topic in the history of Buddhism from the past to the present. In <em>“The Questions of King Milinda</em>,” the King Milinda said to Nagasena that the donation of the prince does not follow the concept of the middle way given by the Buddha. Modern scholars have raised the question that it could be possible to see that the donation of the prince has caused a number of serious problems in the society. The donation of his wife and children has been seriously criticized as the thing that violates the human rights and why the prince, who is believed to be a wise person, does not understand this simple thing. In this research, I need to explain and defend the actions of Vessantara through a perspective of Existentialism. Existentialism highly stresses the choice and responsibilities of a person, and I would like to argue that in donating things in his life the prince is highly responsible for everything. </p> Somparn Promta Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of MCU Philosophy Review https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/jmpr/article/view/280696 Mon, 03 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700
