Introduction
History background
There are so many factors about which the religion is talked. In term
of education, teachings Buddha reveal reality of lives, which is the basic
education for most of the people who should know and learn in order to live
in peace and harmony. Buddha taught people not to kill each other lives for
grabbing benefits. If people can control their feeling and emotion, they will
get some peace inside, which call the foundation of peace because they are
self-mastered, and they know to interact with other persons promptly. When
majority of people who understand this teaching, government don’t have to
be strict in law implementation due to citizens have maturity of ethics
themselves and they actually realize what to do and not to do. This is what
today world prefers for reserving global peace. According to Venerable Suy
Sovann (Internet, 2012), it is stated that Buddhist ideas and ideals have
guided and influenced the lives and thoughts of countless human beings in
many parts of the world. As Buddhists, our own experiences and discoveries
in life are not enough to give a true perspective on life. To bring ourselves
closer to the ideal of a well-balanced man or woman, we need to acquire, at
least in outline, what is called a cultural grounding in the Dharma.
