The Buddhist sustainable development in Ven.Phra Dhammapitaka’s (P.A.Payutto’s) viewpoint is originated from the principles of Buddhadhamma which in really the sustainable development, but the terms “Sustainable Development” are not used. Phra Dhammapitaka’s (P.A.Payutto’s), showed his viewpoint in solving the problem of the sustainable development in the United Nations including the propose of the sustainable development with the principle of Majjhimàpatipadà, Tisikkhà, and mattaññutā, three of which are the processes of leading the people’s lives, on the sides of behavior, minds, and wisdom in the form of integration. This type of development is of the measurement as the formality called Co-operated well-being which cause the happiness which does not disturb the environmental nature, but, however, the three defilements :- Tanhà, Màna, and Micchàditthi which are the obstacles which the human beings must improve for their peaceful happiness.
From the comparison of the Sustainable Development of both the mentioned Sustainable developments ; it is found that the ways to solve the problems depend on the people, but The Buddhist sustainable development emphasize people’s values and the people’s deep problems up to the state of defilements owing to the different basic thoughts. That is to say, in the western type, the peoples are separated from the nature and they should receive the benefits as the owners of the nature, the fact of which in the obstacle to the sustainable development from that time up to now. On the other hand, the economic measurement is not substitute enough to cost of the natural truth. Regarding The Buddhist Sustainable Development in Ven. Phra Dhammapitaka’s (P.A.Payutto’s) viewpoint, there is a basic thought that the human being are one part of the nature and are under the system of the relationship of the cause and the factor in the same way as the nature. Thus, the human beings can lead their lives together in harmony. |
