Abstract

This research aims to improve the donation practices among students of Pelita Dhamma Sunday School at Buddhavaṁsa Lenek Temple in North Lombok Regency through the use of Jataka Stories. It is a type of classroom action research consisting of three cycles involving four steps: planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data collection techniques include interviews, observations, documentation, and questionnaires. Based on pre-action interviews, the researcher found that understanding of Jataka stories and donation practices were lacking, and participants faced difficulties in responding.In the first cycle, there was an improvement in learning outcomes compared to pre-action, as participants were able to answer the researcher's questions. In the second cycle, there was further improvement, as participants not only answered questions but could also retell the stories. As for the third cycle, participants conducted a review by retelling all three Jataka stories taught. Regarding donation awareness, there was an increase after this learning process, as participants showed willingness to help both their parents and forgive their friends. Based on these improvement results, it can be concluded that the use of Jataka stories can enhance donation practices among students of Pelita Dhamma Sunday School at Buddhavaṁsa Lenek Temple in North Lombok Regency.

Abstract

This research focuses on the spiritual leadership style of Aṭṭhasīlanī and its influence on personal development. Leadership plays a strategic role in shaping the personal and spiritual growth of community members. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that the spiritual leadership style of Aṭṭhasīlanī incorporates the values of vision, faith, and altruistic love. Several personal development programs such as Pālivacana training, Dhammapada recitations, and Dhamma talks have been implemented. However, the effectiveness of leadership remains suboptimal due to uneven and inconsistent program implementation. Some members still feel that their needs, especially in terms of esteem and self-actualization, have not been fully met. In conclusion, the spiritual leadership of Aṭṭhasīlanī in 2024 is considered moderately effective, but improvement is needed in execution and equal distribution of program benefits to ensure positive impacts on all members’ personal development.
