Brahmavihārādhammā: Buddhist Psychology for Human Resource Management in Organizations

Wed, 30 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Human resource management in organizations is considered the heart of driving an organization towards success. In the current era of high business competition, organizations face challenges in retaining and developing human resources to their highest efficiency. Effective human resource management not only helps organizations achieve their business goals but also affects employee satisfaction, organizational commitment, and sustainable organizational culture. Effective human resource management can create added value for the organization, demonstrating the importance of investing in personnel development. Human resource management in organizations should incorporate principles from Buddhist teachings. The principle of Brahmavihara, also known as the Four Divine States of Mind, refers to the sublime states of mind, the virtues inherent in the most noble minds, and the principles of pure and virtuous conduct. These are the fundamental principles that should be kept in mind and guide one's behavior. These include:Metta (Loving-kindness): Sincerity, love, and goodwill towards others.Karuna (Compassion): Sympathy and empathy for fellow human beings, always willing to help and support others wholeheartedly.Mudita (Sympathetic joy): Rejoicing in others' success and happiness, showing no jealousy and genuinely appreciating others' achievements without forcing oneself.Upekkha (Equanimity): Maintaining composure when unable to help others, not adding insult to injury when others make mistakes.These principles can be applied in organizational management to create a balance between work efficiency and employee happiness. They can be used in developing effective human resource management approaches that align with Thai social and cultural contexts

Wed, 30 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This academic article will present the role of Thai healthcare facilities in India during the COVID-19 crisis. It will focus on the role of the Kushinagar Clinic at Wat Thai Kushinara Chalermraj in the Republic of India in managing assistance to those affected by the COVID-19 outbreak in India. The severe spread of COVID-19 worldwide has made India the country with the second-highest cumulative number of infections globally. Despite the government's preventive measures against the spread of COVID-19 through lockdowns, the country's large population has significantly limited access to protective equipment, resulting in a rapid increase in virus transmission. This has caused India to face severe problems. However, many countries have extended help, leading to a gradual improvement in the situation. The Kushinagar Clinic at Wat Thai Kushinara Chalermraj in the Republic of India has played a role in assisting those affected by the COVID-19 outbreak in India. It has adopted the public welfare management model of the Sangha, using the principles of support, nurture, development, and integration to help and heal those affected by the COVID-19 virus in the community and society. The public welfare management of the Kushinagar Clinic and Wat Thai Kushinara Chalermraj not only provides immediate assistance but also focuses on sustainable development and long-term strengthening of the community.

Buddhist Methods for Alleviating Physical and Mental Suffering

Miss Chotiga Chaichana; Somdet Namket — Wed, 30 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Suffering is something everyone must face in life, whether it is physical suffering from illness or mental suffering from worries and discomfort. Buddhism teaches effective methods to extinguish these sufferings, which can be applied in daily life by emphasizing practice and understanding the nature of suffering. This article discusses Buddhist methods for alleviating physical and mental suffering. 1) Alleviating Mental Suffering According to Buddhism: This involves practicing mindfulness, knowing oneself, and seeing life as it truly is without being deluded by worldly conditions, which are the causes of suffering. This understanding reduces suffering and brings more peace to the mind. The principle of Anapanasati (mindfulness of breathing) is used to train the mind to be calm within itself, not to be distracted by external stimuli. When faced with impacts, it is viewed as natural, helping to refine the mind. Understanding the correct way to let go leads to happiness in the present. 2) Alleviating Physical Suffering Through Meditation: This involves the principles of living mindfully, showing kindness to fellow humans, seeing life as impermanent, being patient, being sincere with oneself, and striving to develop skills for success. Practicing Anapanasati meditation helps one see their own value and abilities, which can be applied to daily life. These methods, grounded in mindfulness and meditation, aim to reduce both physical and mental suffering by promoting a clear understanding of oneself and the nature of life, ultimately leading to a more peaceful and fulfilling existence.

The Ten Recollections and Cultivating a Happy Mind in The Present

Phramaha Janthee Dhmmaviriyo (Seelalai); Somdet Namket — Wed, 30 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This article aims to study the significance of the "Ten Recollections" (Anussati 10) as a core practice in Buddhism and analyze the relationship between the practice of Anussati 10 and the cultivation of mental happiness in the context of modern daily life. The Ten Recollections include Buddha-anussati, Dhamma-anussati, Sangha-anussati, Sila-anussati, Caga-anussati, Devata-anussati, Marana-anussati, Kayagatasati, Anapanasati, and Upasama-anussati. These practices serve as tools to help practitioners develop concentration, mindfulness, and wisdom. In today’s fast-paced and stress-laden lifestyle, the Ten Recollections can be effectively adapted to promote happiness in everyday life. Recollecting Buddha-anussati, Dhamma-anussati, and Sangha-anussati fosters faith and mental stability, while Sila-anussati and Caga-anussati enhance self-esteem and pride in one’s virtuous conduct. At the same time, Devata-anussati inspires individuals to lead a life of integrity and compassion. Marana-anussati reminds practitioners of the impermanence of life, encouraging them to live mindfully and strive for goodness. Kayagatasati helps reduce attachment to the self and fosters an understanding of the transient nature of the body. Anapanasati serves as a tool for developing concentration, enabling the mind to remain calm amidst stress and challenges. Lastly, Upasama-anussati highlights the ultimate goal of life: liberation from suffering. This study indicates that consistent practice of the Ten Recollections can lead to mental tranquility, reduced distraction, and increased happiness, even amidst the complexities of modern life. Moreover, it advocates the use of the Ten Recollections as a means to cultivate mental resilience and happiness in a rapidly changing society.

The article presents a conceptual framework linking Paṭiccasamuppāda with the process of quality of life development, emphasizing mindfulness, concentration, and wisdom as tools to free oneself from suffering and achieve sustainable happiness. The analysis reveals that applying Paṭiccasamuppāda promotes self-awareness, adaptability in social contexts, and purposeful living. This article suggests practical guidelines for individuals and organizations to improve quality of life by emphasizing the importance of integrating Buddhist practice and mental development into modern living. This integration aims to balance material well-being with spiritual tranquility, leading to a harmonious and meaningful life.

Phrakhrupariyatmongkhonbudit; PhramahaArnon Akkapanyo, PhramahaSathit Sutemano — Wed, 30 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This article discusses the issue of interest groups in politics in democratic and dictatorship regimes. Interest groups are political institutions that are very important to the stability and development of the political system in a democracy because interest groups are another organization that allows people to participate in policy-making by demanding benefits. Interest groups are “the gathering of individuals to become members of a group, each of whom has a common background in this study, which is the basic occupation (merchant, businessman) with goals and objectives to operate to create collective benefits that members agree on. The implementation of activities must be related to or related to government policies and some part of the political system. Interest groups depend on the political system of each country. In a dictatorship, interest groups have a limited role, often being only tools of the ruler rather than representatives of the people. They may also be controlled or blocked because they are seen as a threat to the stability of power.

In a democracy, interest groups are very important because their rights, freedoms, and equality allow for group formation and a balance of power. These groups can negotiate with the government and play a role in supporting democracy, including creating benefits for society as a whole.
