TEMPO.CO, Magelang - Directorate General for the Guidance of Buddhist Society at the Religious Affairs Ministry Supriyadi invited the Buddhist society to value the 2017 Vesak Day as a momentum to strengthen the wisdom in facing the problems in life.

“In the current situation, intelligent people are aware, but an intelligence that isn’t accompanied by wisdom could create problems,” Supriyadi said on Wednesday, May 10.

He explained the importance of the Buddhist society to elevate their consciousness in order to produce a life that is full of kindness to every living creature.

The peak of Vesak Day will be celebrated on Thursday, May 11. It will be marked with a Pradakshina and Vesak meditation session on 04:42:09 Indonesia Western Time around the vicinity of Borobudur Temple.

Supriyadi believes that every individual has the consciousness to conduct kindness. “Efforts are surely good, but it will be better if it’s advantageous, not just for oneself but also for the environment. That’s why you need to be wise,” he said.

He revealed that the attempts to strengthen wisdom will continue to be reminded to the Buddhists since it is the basic principle of the Buddha teachings.

“It will always be reminded until segregation is eliminated. Anything positive is conducted for the goodness of every living creature, no matter who they are,” Supriyadi concluded.
