A Study of Teachings on Dhammakaya in Line with Wat Phra Dhammakaya

Phramaha Pongsiri Sirivijayo, Chamnarn Kerdchor — Wed, 04 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700

The purpose of this article was 1) to study the historical background of the concept of Dhammakaya in Buddhism, 2) to study the teachings of Dhammakaya according to the Dhammakaya Temple's perspective, and 3) to analyze and comparation of the Dhamma-kaya teachings from the Dhammakaya Temple with the concept of Dhammakaya in other scriptures. This research is a documentary study, and the data was analyzed using content analysis methods.

The findings indicate that the concept of Dhammakaya is present in both the Tipitaka and other secondary scriptures. Dhammakaya is used as a name for the Buddha, representing the essence of Dharma or the qualities of enlightenment. In Mahayana Buddhism, Dhammakaya is one of the three bodies (Trikaya) used to explain the different states of the Buddha. In contrast, the Dhammakaya Temple regards Dhammakaya as the most refined body of a human being, composed of the highest purity. The meditation practice at the Dhammakaya Temple is distinctive, involving the visualization of a bright crystal ball at the center of the body. In later teachings, practitioners are also instructed to keep the mind empty to achieve deep meditation. The comparison of the Dhammakaya teachings with other scriptural interpretations reveals that the term "Dhammakaya" appears four times in the Tipitaka. Generally, Theravada scholars agree that the Buddha has two bodies: the physical body (Rupakaya) and the Dhammakaya. In Mahayana Buddhism, Dhammakaya is a specific name used for the Buddha, associated with concepts like Tathagata and Nibbana.

Transsexuals and The Ordination in The Theravada Buddhist

Thanapon Chimpalee, Asst.Prof Dr.Dechopol Hemnalai — Wed, 04 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700

This article has the following objectives: (1) to study the types of gender from the perspective of Theravada Buddhism, (2) to study the goals of ordination from the perspective of Theravada Buddhism, (3) to study the conditions of ordination for both monks and nuns from the perspective of Theravada Buddhism, and (4) to analyze the feasibility of ordination for transgender individuals from the perspective of Theravada Buddhism. The research is conducted in four steps: (1) the researcher will gather information to understand the issue of gender types from the perspective of Theravada Buddhism, (2) the researcher will gather information to understand the goals of ordination from the perspective of Theravada Buddhism, (3) the researcher will conduct in-depth research to understand the conditions of ordination for both monks and nuns as stated in Theravada Buddhist scriptures, to show how these issues are explained, and (4) the final step is to analyze all the gathered information to determine whether transgender individuals can be ordained from the perspective of Theravada Buddhism and how this is explained.

The research findings reveal tha it is found that the Abhidhamma Pitaka indicates that material qualities of sex i.e. femininity and masculinity, which are derivative materiality, are unchangeable so the process of sex change in transsexuals only changes the external body and the intrinsic gender characteristic cannot be changed. Thus, according to Buddhist scriptures, transsexuals cannot be ordained. Moreover, my view is that the ban of ordination for individuals with diverse sexual orientations stems from issues of gender inappropriateness and the potential problems of communal living, which could bring dishonor and shame within the Sangha. However, for transsexuals, after undergoing sex reassignment surgery, their physical and mental states are aligned so communal living issues within the Sangha would not arise. Finally, even though transsexuals are illegitimate, those who are considered incapable of achieving enlightenment, I would like to open a pathway for their ordination so that transsexuals can accumulate merit for attainment of the enlightenment in the future. They could also be contributors for propagating the Buddha's teachings and supporting maintenance of Buddhism in the future.

A Study of Devadūtasutta in Buddhist Scriptures

Phra Phakawat Kovito — Wed, 04 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700

The study consisted of the following objectives: 1) to investigate the background of Devadūtasutta; 2) to explore the Dhamma related to Devadūta; and 3) to analyze Devadūtasutta in Buddhist scriptures. The study used a documentary research technique, examining Buddhist scriptures and related materials.

The study discovered that Devadūta refers to life's phenomena, including birth, old age, sickness, punishment, and death. One that engages in misconduct by body, speech, and mind will be reborn in hell after death. There the guard of hell will show him to King Yama, where he will be asked, “This person, didn’t you ever see among human brings a newborn baby, the elderly, the gravely ill, the criminal, the dead?” If he replies “Yes, I have seen this, and I contempled it upon myself,” he will then be freed from hell. But, if he replies “Yes, I have seen this, but I never contemplates it upon myself,” he will be put in hell.

The Dhamma related to Devadūta is non-negligence through thorough reflection on birth, old age, sickness, punishment, and death. One should then take it upon themselves and do good by body, words, and mind, while also understanding the law of cause (kamma) and effect (vipaka). The Dhamma that is against Devadūta is negligence, resulting in decrease and unpleasantness.

Devadūta has two points of view, which are: (1) seeing Devadūta and realizing the sense of urgency to do good by body, words and mind, while developing oneself according to the four noble truths (ariyasacca), and contemplating on the impermanance, suffering and non-self. Finally, one should also use wisdom to contemplate on oneself and practice meditation in order to be liberated from the wheel of rebirths and lead a happy life; and (2) seeing Devadūta and having craving, greed, hatred, delusion, and suffering. Devadūta is the reason for the creation of the literature on Phra Malai, who bestows mercy to hell creatures.

Legal Problems Concerning Military Disciplinary Punishment

Rapeepong Krittsuansombat, Surathin Chaithongkham — Wed, 04 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700

This thesis has four objectives: (1) to study the concepts, theories, and principles related to military disciplinary punishment; (2) to examine legal measures regarding military discipline in foreign countries in comparison with Thailand; (3) to study and analyze legal issues concerning military punishment in Thailand and abroad; and (4) to propose legal approaches for amending military disciplinary punishment. This research investigates the concepts, theories, and principles related to military disciplinary punishment according to the Military Discipline Act B.E. 2476, utilizing documents and relevant laws from both Thailand and foreign countries. It also examines legal measures related to military discipline in foreign nations compared to those in Thailand, analyzes the legal issues pertaining to military disciplinary punishment in Thailand, and provides recommendations for resolving legal problems concerning military disciplinary measures under the Military Discipline Act B.E. 2476.

The study reveals that the law governing military disciplinary punishment is the Military Discipline Act B.E. 2476, which has been in force for a long time without substantial amendments, except for adding some military positions in the Act. This has led to four main problems: (1) the lack of definitions of some specific terms used in the Act and there is no clear boundaries of the law's application; (2) the absence of legal measures defining the rights and duties of individuals involved in the military disciplinary process and absence of legal measures preserving their rights; (3) the inability to bring disciplinary proceedings to military court; and (4) the lack of legal measures to contest or appeal disciplinary orders issued by superiors to military court, making it difficult to review the discretion exercised in disciplinary decisions. These issues affect the fairness in military disciplinary process. Therefore, the author recommends amending the Military Discipline Act B.E. 2476 and the Military Court Act B.E. 2498 by including definitions for specific terms to clarify the scope and application of the law, adding the duties of commanders and the rights of the accused, and establishing timeframes for the disciplinary process. Furthermore, legal measures should be updated to allow disciplinary cases to be determined by military court and to allow individuals to contest or appeal disciplinary orders. It also suggests Thailand to adopt legal concepts and measures from foreign countries, such as, those of the United States and those of the Federal Republic of Germany to solve the problems in the military disciplinary process in Thailand.

Phramaha Warantorn Yanakitti, Maechee Kritsana Raksachom, Orachon Kraichakr — Wed, 04 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700

This article aims to interpret the Upālivāda Sutta using Hans-Georg Gadamer's Hermeneutics. The content is divided into three parts: (1) Part 1 discusses the origin and development of Hermeneutics. (2) Part 2 discusses Hans-Georg Gadamer's Hermeneutics. (3) Part 3 interprets the teachings on kamma of the Buddha and Niganthanataputta in the Upālivāda Sutta through the lens of Hans-Georg Gadamer's Hermeneutics. The interpretation results show that the belief held by Niganthanataputta that kāyadaṇḍa is most effective action is a prejudice. Similarly, the belief held by the Buddha that manokamma is the most effective action is also a prejudice. This prejudice leads to a difference in horizon or understanding on kamma between Niganthanataputta and the Buddha.

This includes the practice of worshipping the Cula Mani stupa, where enshrine the Buddha’s hair relic, and venerating the Buddha’s footprint in the underworld, the realm of the Naga (serpent beings). Worshipping Phra Upakut, who resides in anticipation of the next Buddha's emergence, is another belief deeply connected to Buddhism. All these practices are intertwined with Buddhist teachings. The significance of the Loy Krathong tradition in Buddhism can be summarized in three aspects: (1) Reflecting on the benefits of the water one has used (2) Repaying this kindness through worship and (3) Apologizing for any offenses committed, as part of expressing gratitude and respect. Point out that it is important to express gratitude and gratitude. This is a morality that is embedded in good culture and traditions in addition to worshiping the Buddha.
