Abstract

This research delves into the practice of fasting in Buddhism, specifically focusing on Vihara Karuna Mukti in Bandung, Indonesia, and its implications for mental well-being. Fasting is a religious practice observed in various faiths, including Buddhism, and this study aims to explore its significance within this particular context. Using a descriptive qualitative research approach, the author investigates the practice of fasting in Buddhism, employing data collection techniques such as observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that at Vihara Karuna Mukti, fasting is observed on specific dates according to the Buddhist calendar, including the 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd days of the lunar month, as well as by the monks who fast daily. Buddhists are permitted to consume food from morning until noon, approximately from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM, after which they abstain from eating until the following day. However, they are still allowed to drink water during the fasting period. Additionally, adherence to Atthasila, which encompasses eight virtues, is expected during fasting. The study concludes that the practice of fasting among Buddhists at Vihara Karuna Mukti holds implications for mental well-being when approached with sincerity. Fasting aids in cultivating self-control, promoting a sense of inner calmness, and nurturing virtues such as patience and honesty. It highlights the transformative potential of fasting as a means to enhance mental and spiritual aspects of life beyond religious boundaries. Overall, this research sheds light on the serenity of fasting in Buddhism and its positive impact on mental well-being, providing valuable insights into the interplay between religious practices and personal growth within the context of Vihara Karuna Mukti.

Abstract

This article aims to explore the parallels between Taoism and Maitreya Buddhism, focusing on their teachings of wisdom. To achieve this, qualitative research methods such as interviews, observation, and documentation were employed for data collection. The research findings showcase the inheritance of beliefs and practices from the White Lotus sect within Maitreya Buddhism, a sect deeply influenced by Taoist teachings. The syncretism of Taoist beliefs within Maitreya Buddhism is evident through the existence of the White Lotus sectarian influence. Moreover, this study unveils shared historical beliefs that serve as a spiritual link between humans, Earth, and heaven. Both Taoism and Maitreya Buddhism emphasize the importance of truth teachings in connecting these realms. Additionally, the convergence between the two traditions lies in their belief systems centered on moral ethics for creation and salvation. Maitreya Buddhism recognizes the future coming of Maitreya Buddha, who will descend to Earth to save humanity from the negative impact of misguided teachings, while Taoism also acknowledges the Enlightening Teacher. This research offers valuable insights into the intertwining of Taoism and Maitreya Buddhism in the diverse religious landscape of Indonesia. The parallels found in their teachings of wisdom and shared beliefs provide a deeper appreciation of the spiritual interconnectedness in this pluralistic society.
