Observations of Delusion Generated by the Self-aggrandizement(我相) and Buddhist Literary Counseling Therapy - Utilization of Buddhist Literary Therapy in The Treatise on the Mahayana Awakening Mind(大乘起信論), Dream of the Nine Clouds, SamgukYusa(三國遺事)
Authors:   Korean Buddhist Counselling Society, Lee Kang-ok
Published: March 2024

This paper attempts to explore a new method of Buddhist counseling by connecting literary therapy and Buddhist teachings. This paper base on the premise that A-Sang, originating from the realm of the karma, psychologically afflicts and causes suffering in individuals.
The Treatise on the Mahayana Awakening Mind serves as the foundational Buddhist theory, perfectly elucidating the differentiation of thoughts, arising, abiding, changing, ceasing. Therefore, this paper uses the theory of arising, abiding, changing, and ceasing from The Treatise on the Mahayana Awakening Mind as the basis for logical development. This paper uses Dream of the Nine Clouds(九雲夢) and Buddhist narratives in SamgukYusa as primary texts, illustrating the functioning process of A-Sang as vivid events. By interconnecting The Treatise on the Mahayana Awakening Mind, Dream of the Nine Clouds, and Buddhist narratives through a literary therapeutic perspective, this paper seeks to explore new avenues in Buddhist counseling. This paper examines the client's attitude towards the text through 'empathy and critique,' 'identification and distancing,' and 'self-reflection and introspection.' It is anticipated that individuals who have been influenced by A-Sang will be able to reconstruct their self-narratives authentically while following the process of transformation. Engaging in empathy, communication, trust, inclusivity, reconciliation, equality, fairness, compassion, and dedication, individuals will gradually approach their own narratives, breaking the boundaries imposed by A-Sang. Following this process, individuals will be able to rewrite their self-narratives authentically. This journey serves as a path towards the healing of psychological disorders through counseling and enlightenment through practice.
Educational Methods of Buddhist Monks in the Joseon Dynasty as Depicted in Yadam
Authors:   Korean Buddhist Counselling Society, Hwang Hye-jin
Published: March 2024

This research adopts the perspective that Buddhist counseling, similar to utilizing literary works in literary therapy, can employ literature as a medium to facilitate human transformation. Given Buddhism's inherently narrative-friendly tradition of disseminating teachings through stories, there is a strong connection between literary therapy and Buddhism. The study is conducted with the anticipation that the relationship between Buddhist counseling and literary therapy will become more closely intertwined in the future.
This research introduces literary narratives from Joseon Dynasty compilations, specifically Yadam, depicting Buddhist monks educating laypeople. The analysis focuses on how monks diagnose the subjects, design and implement educational strategies, and evaluate the outcomes in order to educate laypeople. Among these narratives, some depict monks diagnosing individuals' qualities and promptly offering assistance, while others portray monks abandoning education based on diagnostic results. Additionally, certain narratives showcase monks devising and executing tailored educational methods. The results indicate that monks in the Joseon Dynasty, as depicted in Yadam, evaluate the earnest pursuit of wisdom, direction, qualities, and a resilient spirit over outward appearances and reputations when selectively diagnosing educational targets. Furthermore, during the actual educational process, monks intricately employ well-crafted expedient means based on the level and characteristics of the educational target. This demonstrates the implementation of customized education, applying diverse means flexibly according to the individual's level and characteristics.
A study on the association between Metta meditation and improving peer relationships among ADHD Adolescents
Authors:   Korean Buddhist Counselling Society, Baek Hee-suk
Published: March 2024

This paper is a study that revealed that Metta meditation helps improve peer relationships among young people with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). I hope that young people living with ADHD symptoms can recognize differences in viewpoints of people around them with a negative perspective, recognize differences for themselves through psychological and emotional stability by combining medication and Buddhist meditation to solve external problems, and they will live a happy life as a member of society by improving their self-esteem and developing interpersonal skills by utilizing their strengths and weaknesses with people around them.
Its purpose is to find out how Buddhist meditation can influence healing in ADHD adolescents in relation to peer relationships. Countries, local communities, and private institutions are studying various methods and establishing new organizations to try to solve problems. But It seems difficult to find a fundamental solution. Therefore, this study aims to approach solutions for young people with ADHD through Buddhist meditation from a Buddhist perspective.
In this article, I first examined the theoretical background of improving peer relationships and Metta meditation, and considered Metta meditation. We also discussed whether there is a possibility of improving peer relationships among young people with ADHD. Metta meditation is a literature review that reveals that emotional composure has the opposite effect of improving interpersonal skills due to excellent coping ability.
Through this study, it has been revealed that adolescents with ADHD are immature in interaction in peer relationships due to lack of performance in social skills due to lack of attention deficit hyperactivity, and impulsiveness characteristics. Also, adolescents with they have difficulty controlling their emotions and have a tendency to be less responsive to questions than efficiently communicating information. On the other hand, it has been proven that charity meditation stimulates the right brain, activates parasympathetic nerves, increases endorphins in the brain, and is effective in improving peer relationships with positive emotions. Through Metta meditation, ADHD adolescents can look forward to the effect of developing personal resources and helping them resolve conflicts in relationships with peers or people around them by looking at their minds.

Authors:   Korean Buddhist Counselling Society, Song Bang-ju(Hechun)
Published: March 2024

Buddhism is a human-centered religion. The Buddha emphasized coexistence, interdependent relationships, and the good nature of human beings. Knowing the reality and origin of suffering, overcoming it, and achieving happiness and enlightenment as the ultimate goal is a characteristic of Buddhism. This paper is a study on the Buddhist view of human beings and the use of dialogue methods. The possibility of communication that empathizes with the pain of the other person, the possibility of positive evolution, and the possibility of pursuing true happiness and satisfaction were examined.
The Buddhist view of humanity is based on a critique of the caste system in ancient Indian society, human values and karma, the concept of interdependence in familial relations, non-duality(自他不二, the oneness of
self and others), the idea that all sentient beings possess Buddha-nature. Buddhist dialogue focuses on the use of right language. They are the avoidance of the lies, divisive speech, harsh speech, and idle chatter. This paper analyzes these ideas and discusses the use of Buddhism's "advising method" and "dagisullbub(對機說法)." The possibility of respect and understanding of the other person was examined, and the possibility of peaceful dialogue was examined through understanding and tolerance of negative emotions and behaviors.
Buddhism teaches us to have a conversation in a state of mental calm. Teach empathy and communication with the other person's pain. Emphasizing practice and compassion, it emphasizes that adherence to ethical principles can lead to individuals and societies evolving for the better, and to find true happiness and contentment. By faithfully practicing these basic Buddhist tenets, you will be able to use the basic principles of interpersonal relationships and communication techniques. The purpose of this study is to find out that this Buddhist methodology can help solve various psychological problems in modern society.

ENTRE A FORÇA E A FRAGILIDADE: Reflexões sobre a saúde masculina e o HIV/AIDS no contexto patriarcal brasileiro
Authors: Vieira Alves Erika Karla da Silva
Published: March 2024

A saúde masculina no Brasil é profundamente influenciada por construções socioculturais, especialmente aquelas enraizadas no patriarcado. Essas construções, que frequentemente associam masculinidade à força e invulnerabilidade, podem mascarar as vulnerabilidades dos homens, particularmente em relação a doenças como o HIV/AIDS. Desde a sua emergência nos anos 1980, o HIV/AIDS tem sido um desafio significativo para a saúde pública brasileira, com altas taxas de infecção entre os homens. O estudo proposto busca entender como o patriarcado afeta a percepção e o tratamento da saúde masculina no contexto do HIV/AIDS, com o objetivo de desenvolver estratégias de prevenção e tratamento mais eficazes e promover uma compreensão mais inclusiva da masculinidade.

Daun kelor merupakan sumber utama senyawa antioksidan karena kandungannya yang tinggi dalam karotenoid, asam askorbat, glukosinolat dan bioaktif lainnya. Jeruk nipis mengandung unsur-unsur senyawa kimia yang bermanfaat, seperti alkaloid, polisakarida, flavonoid, dan minyak atsiri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan formula gel yang stabil secara fisik dan stabil selama penyimpanan dengan metode Freeze-Thaw Cycling dari ekstrak daun kelor dan ekstrak daun jeruk nipis. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimental laboratorium. Pembuatan gel dilakukan dengan variasi konsentrasi antara esktrak daun kelor dan ekstrak daun jeruk nipis F1 (75%:25%), F2 (50%:50%), dan F3 (25%:75%). Pengujian sifat fisik gel meliputi organoleptik, pH, homogenitas, viskositas, daya sebar, daya lekat dan sineresis. Uji stabilitas yang dilakukan adalah uji stabilitas dengan metode Freeze- Thaw Cycling selama 3 siklus dengan melihat kestabilan yang akan dilakukan dimana tiap siklus diamati perubahan fisik gel meliputi organolopetik, homogenitas dan pH. Hasil sediaan gel kombinasi ekstrak etanol daun kelor dan daun jeruk nipis formulasi 1, 2, dan 3 dengan perbedaan pada konsentrasi zat aktif dinyatakan stabil, karena tidak adanya perubahan yang signifikan dari pengamatan organoleptik, homogenitas, pH, daya lekat serta daya sebar. Namun, uji statistik menyatakan uji daya lekat suhu 4℃ mendapatkan p value (<0,05) dan suhu 40℃ p value (>0,05), sedangkan uji daya sebar suhu 4℃ dan 40℃ mendapatkan p value (<0,05).

Neste estudo, várias estratégias terapêuticas são examinadas para o tratamento da Síndrome de Tourette, com ênfase na abordagem farmacológica e não farmacológica. Inicialmente, destacamos a eficácia das recentes intervenções farmacológicas desenvolvidas, enfatizando sua capacidade de controlar os sintomas da doença e melhorar a qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Essas terapias emergentes não se limitam apenas ao alívio dos sintomas, mas também buscam abordar as causas subjacentes da condição, considerando a complexa interação entre fatores neurobiológicos e ambientais.

Além das intervenções farmacológicas, estão sendo exploradas abordagens não farmacológicas inovadoras, como terapias comportamentais e modulação do estilo de vida. Essas estratégias incluem terapias cognitivo-comportamentais, treinamento de habilidades sociais e técnicas de relaxamento, que demonstraram ser eficazes na redução dos tiques e no gerenciamento do estresse. A pesquisa contínua nesse campo é crucial para identificar as abordagens mais eficazes e adaptá-las às necessidades individuais dos pacientes.

Além disso, é importante destacar o papel dos medicamentos específicos no tratamento da Síndrome de Tourette, incluindo antipsicóticos, agonistas dopaminérgicos e agentes adjuvantes. Esses medicamentos visam controlar os tiques motores e vocais, bem como os sintomas comportamentais associados à condição, proporcionando alívio aos pacientes afetados pela Síndrome.

Em resumo, a abordagem no tratamento está cada vez mais focada na combinação da terapia farmacológica e não farmacológica. A integração dessas estratégias terapêuticas pode oferecer uma abordagem mais abrangente e personalizada para o manejo da condição, melhorando significativamente a qualidade de vida dos pacientes. No entanto, são necessárias mais pesquisas para entender completamente os mecanismos subjacentes e otimizar o uso dessas intervenções terapêuticas na prática clínica.

Dynamics of a vibrating feeder on combinational parametric resonance
Authors:   Dentsov N.N. Koshelev A.V.
Published: March 2024

The dynamics of a vibrating feeder using combinational parametric resonance is investigated. Mathematical and dynamic models of a vibrating feeder with a parametric vibration exciter are presented. Stationary solutions are obtained by the averaging method when taking dissipative forces, nonlinear components of restoring forces and resistance forces as small parameters. The amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency characteristics of the feeder and the dependences of the generation frequencies are constructed. The trajectory of the center of mass of spherical rolling bodies relative to the axis of rotation of the vibration exciter is obtained.
