Abstract

This article examines the strengthening of Buddhist community through religious tolerance in Indonesia, amid increasing cases of intolerance which recorded 217 events with 329 violations of religious freedom in 2023. This study aims to analyze various aspects of Buddhist community strengthening, including attitudes towards traditional beliefs, religious attitude phenomena, sectarian and non-sectarian analysis, plurality and multiculturalism, inclusivism and exclusivism, as well as religious tolerance based on Upali Sutta, Kalama Sutta, and King Asoka's policies. Using library research methods with content analysis techniques, this study examines various related literature sources. The results show that strengthening the Buddhist community can be achieved through pluralistic engagement, cultural integration, reduction of violent attitudes, non-sectarian perspectives, and the application of inclusive values in modern contexts. The study concludes that the Buddhist approach to religious tolerance, rooted in the principles of pluralistic engagement and cultural integration, provides a strong foundation for building social harmony and reducing inter-religious conflicts in Indonesia.

Abstract

The Noble Eightfold Path is the core teaching of Buddhism that aims to guide individuals to nibbana. Indian philosophies, such as dharma and moksha, have a major influence on shaping Buddhist core values, creating a rich spiritual and ethical foundation. However, the integration of the two requires a deeper understanding to meet the challenges in the modern context. This study aims to explain the integration of Indian cultural philosophies with Buddhism in the context of the Noble Eightfold Path, and explore its impact on contemporary Buddhist practice. It uses a historical and philosophical approach through desk research to examine the influence of Veda values, including dharma, karma, and meditation practices, on the evolution of the essential elements of the Eightfold Path. The findings show that the integration of Indian cultural values ​​enriches the Noble Eightfold Path in terms of ethics, spirituality, and wisdom. Its relevance extends to cross-cultural contexts and addresses modern ethical challenges. The study concludes that the integration of Indian philosophies and Buddhism not only strengthens the foundation of Buddhist teachings but also creates a moral framework that is relevant to modern life.
