The Four Origins in Buddhism: A Dynamic Framework for Holistic Medicine

Phrachatmongkon Apinanto (Kabsri) — 2026-09-30

This academic article aims to analyze the concept of the Four Origins (Samutthāna 4) in Buddhism, namely Kamma-samutthāna (karmic origin), Citta-samutthāna (mental origin), Utu-samutthāna (climatic or environmental origin), and Āhāra-samutthāna (nutritional origin). These principles are not merely explanations of the causes of illness in a fragmented or isolated sense; rather, they function as a dynamic conceptual framework that systematically explains the interrelationship among the body, mind, environment, and patterns of living behavior. When the concept of the Four Origins is examined in conjunction with the principles of Thai traditional medicine, the diagnosis and treatment of illness can be approached through multiple dimensions, including physical, psychological, and environmental factors, rather than being limited solely to the management of symptoms. The new contribution of this article lies in elevating the concept of the Four Origins from a traditional scriptural framework to an integrative conceptual model for holistic medicine. Such a framework can serve as a theoretical foundation for analyzing and developing therapeutic approaches within the contexts of Thai traditional medicine and complementary or alternative medicine in contemporary society. This perspective is valuable for the study of applied Buddhism, research in holistic health, and the development of integrated healthcare systems.

ขบวนการเคลื่อนไหวออนไลน์กับการเปลี่ยนแปลงนโยบายสาธารณะในประเทศไทย

Nippeach Krueangsanuk — 2026-09-30

The purpose of this article is to present the online activism movements and their impact on public policy changes in Thailand by Thai youth, while highlighting the development of these movements from 2020 to the present, including the intensified adaptation of tactics and legal mechanisms. It examines the conceptual framework of social movements that promote public policy through secondary sources such as books, academic journals, and online platforms. The authors focus on analyzing the “Free Youth” and “Ratsadon (People’s Movement)” groups. Both groups share a digital-era approach to activism, but they differ in the level of their demands, the scope of their networks, and their roles over time. which effectively combine online spaces with on-ground activities. These movements utilize social media—particularly Twitter and Facebook—as primary tools for disseminating demands and mobilizing supporters. Their advocacy has evolved from specific issues, such as civil rights and individual freedoms, toward broader structural reforms of the state, including the call for monarchy reform and the abolition of Section 112 of the Criminal Code, reflecting the emergence of a new wave of social movements.

During the COVID-19 era, social movements within educational institutions demonstrated cross-university networks of students who organized flash mobs and campaigns advocating for educational rights and freedom of expression. Notable examples include the “Karn Rai Ratsadorn Network” and the “Student Union of Thailand (SUT),” both of which leveraged social media as a key instrument for publishing joint statements and creating digital public spheres for policy debate. The establishment of the “Mob Gun Mai” website serves as a prominent example of a digital platform designed to systematically collect and disseminate educational movement activities across the country.

In addition, civic movements addressing specific social issues have also gained traction. For instance, the “Bad Student” group used social media to advocate for educational reform, while the “Mayday” group employed Facebook as a central hub to campaign for the redesign of Bangkok’s bus stop signage for public benefit. These cases illustrate how Thai youth have successfully utilized technology and online participation to generate social awareness and push for policy change. Although structural transformation remains at an early stage, these movements represent the growing strength of “horizontal activism,” which lies at the core of Thailand’s emerging digital democracy.

A Virtue-Based Library Management Model for the Development of a Learning Society

chanakankang Singrung — 2026-09-30

This academic article aims to examine key concepts and principles and to develop ethical library management for the development of a learning society in the context of contemporary social changes. Rapid transformations in information technology, economic conditions, and social structures have significantly influenced the roles and missions of libraries as major learning resources in society. The study synthesizes relevant theories, concepts, and academic literature related to library management, learning society, and virtue and ethics in order to propose a systematic management model. The findings indicate that a virtue-based library management model for the development of a learning society should consist of four essential components: (1) management grounded in virtue, ethics, and responsibility among library administrators and personnel; (2) management of information resources and services that promote equity, accessibility, and lifelong learning for users; (3) promotion of participation from users, communities, and learning networks in library operations; and (4) ethical, transparent, and socially responsible use of information technology. The application of this virtue-based library management model can enhance the role of libraries beyond being mere repositories of information resources, transforming them into learning centers that cultivate knowledge, virtue, and wisdom. Consequently, such a model contributes to the sustainable development of a learning society in the long term.

Analysis of Holistic Life Balance Philosophy in the Mahosadha Jataka

PhraKhruBaiDeeka Phisan Santajitto (Paewkhunthod) — 2026-09-30

This research entitled “An Analysis of the Philosophy of Holistic Life Balance in the Mahosadha jataka” has the following objectives: 1) to study the concept of life balance from a holistic perspective; 2) to examine the Mahosadha jataka within the framework of Theravada Buddhist philosophy; and 3)to analyze the philosophy of holistic life balance as presented in the Mahosadha jataka. This study is qualitative research employing documentary research methods. The primary sources include the Tipitaka (Mahachulalongkornrajavidyalaya Edition, B.E. 2539 [1996]) and other related academic texts. The collected data were analyzed using content analysis.

The research results revealed that:

1) Holistic Perspective on Life Balance: Life balance from a holistic perspective does not refer to allocating equal amounts of time to each aspect of life. Rather, it involves viewing life as an integrated whole in which all dimensions are interconnected and mutually influential. Human beings are therefore understood as complex systems composed of multiple interrelated dimensions that function in coordination and cannot be meaningfully examined in isolation.

2) Mahosadha Pandita in Theravada Buddhism: Mahosadha Pandita is presented as a Bodhisatta in a former life, appearing in the Mahosadha Jataka or the Maha-Ummagga Jataka, which is the fifth story among the Ten Great Jatakas in the Theravada Buddhist tradition. His mode of thinking is distinguished by exceptional wisdom and broad vision. He resolves problems through a systematic and analytical process that includes comprehensive situational analysis, differentiation of key components, identification of causal relationships, collection of relevant information, and step-by-step decision-making carried out effectively.

3) The Philosophy of Holistic Life Balance in the Mahosadha Jataka: The Mahosadha Jataka illustrates a balanced way of life through the integration of wisdom and compassion, as well as reason and the human heart, without falling into extremes of either intellectualism or action alone. His approach to life accords with the principle of the Middle Way (Majjhima Patipada). Consequently, Mahosadha’s self-development is holistic, encompassing the cultivation of wisdom through interdisciplinary learning, the development of the mind and emotions through mindfulness practice and self-regulation, the maintenance of physical health, and the enhancement of social skills.

Their beliefs combine palm-leaf manuscript traditions with the worship of spirits, which are often transformed conceptually into guardian deities while retaining their sacred status. Ritual practice therefore reflects a harmonious synthesis of indigenous beliefs and Buddhist teachings.

2) Ritual practice : The Tai Lue regard spirits as ancestral and communal guardians whose existence is integrated with Buddhist notions of karma and its consequences. Proper ritual practice is believed to bring peace and prosperity. Rituals are transmitted intergenerationally and have been adapted including the use of modern technologies for preservation and dissemination in contemporary society.

3) Philosophy of spirit veneration in Tai Lue Buddhism: The Tai Lue worldview blends spirit veneration with Buddhism in a balanced way, seeing life and the world as an interconnected system of humans, spirits, and nature. Knowledge is sought through meditative practice, reason, and ancestral wisdom. Belief practices guide moral conduct and the cultivation of a peaceful society, grounded in the Threefold Training (slla, samadhi, pañña) and the Middle Way to foster mental tranquility and harmonious coexistence. Compassion (metta), sympathetic joy (mudita), empathetic concern (karuna), and equanimity (upekkha) temper the application of wisdom so that it serves mutual support rather than ego or domination.
