The Buddhist Religion course aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the teachings, values, and practices of Buddhism based on its fundamental sources. Students will explore the Tipitaka/Tripitaka scriptures as the primary foundation, examine the philosophy and historical development of Buddhism, and study the universal laws embedded within its teachings. The course also discusses the concept of the One Supreme God (Ketuhanan Yang Maha Esa) in the Buddhist perspective, the values of sīla (morality) as ethical guidelines, and their relevance in addressing the challenges of science and technology in modern life. Furthermore, students will gain insight into the Buddhist community concept, interreligious harmony, and the dynamics of Buddhist culture and politics within the national context of Indonesia. As part of spiritual practice, students will be introduced to samatha bhavana (meditation for mental tranquility) and vipassana bhavana (insight meditation) as methods of self-cultivation applicable to daily life. Through this course, students are expected to develop attitudes and behaviors guided by the fundamental teachings of Buddhism, enabling them to live wisely and ethically, both as individuals and as members of society who uphold moral values, compassion, and harmony.
