Phra Medhivajarapundit, Professor, Dr., Director of the International Buddhist Studies College and Director of the Peace Studies Program, led lecturers, staff, international students, and doctoral students from the Peace Studies Program to practice insight meditation.
The practice of insight meditation and examining the mental factors with experienced meditation instructors is an essential aspect that leads to a deeper understanding of Buddhism and the teachings of the Buddha.
Mindfulness practice cultivates physical and mental flexibility. It enables practitioners to communicate, express, and act in a harmonious manner in all dimensions.
Mindfulness becomes a tool for creating inner peace within society because when individuals are gentle and considerate towards themselves and others, conflicts within the community diminish.
Mindfulness serves as a preventive measure against conflicts, starting with self-protection, then protection of others, and ultimately, the protection of society. Teachers emphasize that "personal peace is global peace," reflecting upon the Four Noble Truths in Buddhism.
At Campson Religious Development Centre, Khao Kho District, Phetchabun Province, November 25, 2566.
