Abstract

Buddhist Sunday School is a non-formal education that requires educational elements, so its implementation cannot be separated from the guidance of educators or mentors. This study aims to examine the strategies of Maitreya Buddhist Sunday School teachers in implementing religious moderation through the concepts of universal love and compassion, equality and social harmony, peace and harmony between religious communities, accommodation of local cultures and global brotherhood, in Cetya Eka Dharma Kubu Raya, West Kalimantan. This research was qualitative. Nine informants were recruited using purposive sampling. Data analysis techniques included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results demonstrate the strategies of Maitreya Buddhist Sunday School teachers in Cetya Eka Dharma Kubu Raya, West Kalimantan, in implementing religious moderation through universal love and compassion, applying the concept of creating a more peaceful, harmonious, and compassionate world. This concept can help us understand that we are all connected and interdependent, and that we have a shared responsibility to create a better world through equality and social harmony, creating a more just, equitable, and harmonious society. This concept can help us understand that we all have equal rights and opportunities, and that we have a shared responsibility to create a better society, and through peace and harmony between religious communities with effective dialogue and communication between individuals and groups of various religions, respect for religious and cultural diversity and tolerance and forgiveness can help reduce conflict and cooperation and mutual respect as well as through accommodation of local cultures and global brotherhood by creating a more peaceful, harmonious and inclusive society.
