Abstract

This study investigates the representation of mental health issues associated with Buddhist meditation in academic literature, emphasizing English and Indonesian sources from a Global South viewpoint. The research employs a systematic literature review, utilizing subscription-based English databases like Scopus and open-access Indonesian platforms, including Google Scholar, accessed through Publish or Perish. This methodology selects 60 pivotal publications for their citation impact, timeliness, and historical importance. The investigation utilizes Visvanathan's Cognitive Justice framework within the Indonesian Consortium for Religious Studies to rigorously assess the epistemic inclusivity of knowledge systems.The results indicate three notable insights. Buddhist meditation is universally acknowledged across various sources as a fundamental practice associated with mental health discourse. Secondly, both English and Indonesian texts emphasize the interaction between Buddhism as an Eastern spiritual tradition and Western psychological and psychiatric paradigms. Indonesian sources specifically examine the impact of state hegemony on Buddhist meditation, highlighting its designation as a religion under Indonesia's monotheistic framework. The study highlights the socio-political factors influencing sacred and profane tales in Indonesia, especially with state-imposed religious classifications. This research highlights critical insights into the impact of socio-political processes in the Global South on the relationship between Buddhist meditation and mental health.

Abstract

This study examines the ethical aspects of mental health advocacy for Indonesian university students atrisk of suicide, highlighting the constraints of prevailing Western psychological frameworks that emphasize biomedical secrecy and autonomy. These standardized techniques can engender estrangement and overlook Indonesian students’ cultural and community realities. This study utilizes an autoethnographic approach rooted in Buddhist psychology and the concept of cognitive justice to demonstrate how academic settings influenced by cognitive capitalism exacerbate mental health issues. The research presents an ethical alternative grounded in Buddhist principles, including Bodhicitta (altruistic intention), Anattā (non-self), and Kalyāṇamitta (spiritual friendship), emphasizing community healing and relational support. Lecturer-counselors are essential figures, delivering non-clinical, culturally relevant support that connects institutional procedures with students’ real-life experiences. The study attempts inflexible confidentiality standards in Western mental health procedures, contending that they may heighten suicide risk by isolating peers and family from the support process. It presents a three-tiered structure integrating universal prevention, targeted ethical support, and culturally tailored crisis intervention, harmonizing Buddhist ethical principles with global health standards. This integrative strategy reconceptualizes mental health advocacy as a moral and community pursuit, converting higher education institutions into compassionate ecosystems grounded in ethical solidarity, cognitive equity, and cultural significance. The study ultimately calls for transitioning to ethically inclusive, spiritually coherent,and structurally responsive mental health interventions in Indonesian universities.

Abstract

The stressful adult phase in life encourages the emergence of mental illnesses such as anxiety and depression. From the Buddhist perspective, the root of depression in adulthood is due to Papancha or mental proliferation, which comes from three bases, namely Tanha (craving), Mana (Conceit), and Ditthi (wrong view). This article uses ethnography from the researcher's reflection notes as a meditation teacher who reconstructs the Buddhist mindfulness curriculum for interfaith meditators. The data collection technique uses contemplative stages with meditation practice, mapping of mind disturbances during meditation, and reflecting on overcoming Papancha with Abhidhamma. This article concludes that first, the differences in Western education are cognitively based in Neoliberalism, while meditation as a universal method is based on the inners. Second, mental proliferation in adulthood is due to the difficulty of living mindfully "here and now," so images of the past and future create anxiety. Third, alienation due to mental proliferation can be overcome with contemplative adult education a emotional intelligence approach.
