Abstract

The Buddhist path to peace is the ultimate hope for leading civilization towards the development of peace, beginning with the development of individuals to coexist without harming each other in thought, word, or deed. Practicing to free oneself from greed, hatred, and delusion through the ten wholesome actions based on the Threefold trainings, as well as thoughtful consideration with Yonisomanasikara Principle, because true peace must first arise from the human mind. As long as a person's mind is still tainted by greed, anger, and delusion, which are the root causes of conflict and violence, true peace cannot be achieved. This inner peace resides at the level of enlightenment, liberating the mind from the roots of evil. It fosters awareness of potential suffering and violence, transforming these into inner love, compassion, and kindness. This compassion extends outward, sharing love and goodwill with others, society, and the nation.
