Abstract

Buddhayana is a form of Buddhism adapted and accepted in a unique way in Indonesia. Buddhayana has become a symbol of harmony, unity and non-sectarianism in a pluralistic society. This research examines Buddhayana as a Buddhist tradition that has intersectarian, inclusivism and plurarism values that are in line with the value of diversity. The approach used in this research is qualitative with a literature review method through the search for primary and secondary information from various sources of books, articles, and the internet. The results of the study show that Buddhayana has successfully integrated local elements in its religious traditions, creating a unique form of Buddhism that suits the Indonesian social and cultural environment. This has been a positive contribution to interfaith harmony in Indonesia, providing a positive example of how different faiths can coexist peacefully. Buddhayana reinforces the notion of Indonesian diversity, reminding us of the importance of diverse religious cultures. Therefore, it is important to continue promoting the values of non-sectarianism and harmony so that Buddhayana and other religions remain agents of diversity in Indonesia. Buddhism in Indonesia is a successful example of interfaith harmony and religious adaptability in cultural diversity. Hopefully, the results of this research help to understand and appreciate the role of Buddhism in maintaining diversity and interfaith harmony in Indonesia and offer valuable insights into future challenges and opportunities

Abstract

The concept of kaly namitta, or good friend, is a very important part of Buddhist teachings. Two classic texts in the Buddhist canon, Sigalovada Sutta and Visuddhimagga, highlight the different but no less important role of kaly namitta in the spiritual development of a person. In Sigalovada Sutta, kaly namitta is described as a true friend who influences individual moral progress in everyday life. Sigalovada, the main character in the sutta, was instructed by the Buddha about the importance of choosing friends wisely, who would support the individual in developing good behavior and morality. Visuddhimagga emphasizes Kalyanamitta's role as a meditation teacher. In this context, Kalyanamitta acts as a spiritual guide who guides a person's meditation practice to inner peace and a deeper understanding of true reality. The meditation teacher in the Visuddhimagga is seen as a figure who holds a crucial role in the spiritual journey of a practitioner, guiding them through the various stages of meditation towards enlightenment. The differences in the emphasis on the role of Kalyanamitta in both texts describe different contexts and purposes in the teachings of Buddhism. Sigalovada Sutta emphasizes the importance of true friends in everyday life and their relationship with moral progress, while Visuddhimagga highlights the role of a meditation teacher in a person's spiritual development. However, these two concepts complement each other in one's attempt to a deeper enlightenment and understanding of Dhamma.This study uses a library study method with a Buddhist approach to analyze the differences between the concepts of kaly namitta in the two texts. The results confirm the importance of a proper understanding of these differences to avoid misunderstandings and deepen the depths of Buddhism.
