1) INTRODUCTION
The propagation of Buddhism is considered an important factor in the existence of Buddhism. Even since the Buddha attained enlightenment, he also made a pilgrimage and sent his disciples to spread the teachings until Buddhism was inherited to the present. In each era, each period used
different methods or forms of propagation without leaving the same principles. One important factor that keeps Buddhism alive is that it has been propagated among the four assemblies of Buddhists as follows; Bhikkhus (assembly of monks), Bhikkhunis (assembly of nuns), assembly of lay-followers, assembly of female lay-follows jointly propagate the teachings from one generation to the next generation, continuing to the present. Particularly, the propagation of Buddhism to those who do not yet have faith in Buddhism, as well as to maintain the faith of those who already have faith to be more stable. This is regarded as an important mission of the monks who are one of the Buddhist companies who have to act as the leaders of the Buddhists in inheriting Buddhism to be prosperous and stable [National Office of Buddhism, 2010: 10] [1].
The mind is weak and confused, confused, and chaos is caused by a lack of concrete mental training. Partly due to developments aimed at mainstream economic growth according to the motto "Work is money, Money is work, Bring happiness-. It is a materialistic illusion that does not take into account the mental and spiritual happiness of human beings, just look at the money. [Wisut Baimai, 2015: 253-267] [2] Person must have a built-in immune system keep pace with material, social and environmental changes.[Phramahamit Thitapanyo,2019: 141] [3] Building strength and immunity from self-reliance in the mind is therefore an important factor for the transformation of a society that is facing crises in many ways, including epidemics, economic, social, even political conditions. What to do when these events don't seem to disappear? Or not occur again. The question that requires great attention is, how can Dhamma play a part in strengthening the community in terms of spirituality? How to learn and develop further to achieve learning? For the community to be strengthened from within. Therefore, the Sangha has a concept and a project to help society, so it has a policy for the Sangha in the administrative area to understand and reach the people in the area. Bueng Kluea Sub-district is located in Selaphum District, Roi-Et Province. There are currently 9 villages in total, namely Ban Chanyai, Ban Nonsawang, Ban Nonsawan, Ban Huakhu, Ban Borkaenoi, Ban Nangla, Ban Borkae, Ban Namchannoi, Ban Huakhu. The current population is 6,038 people [Bueng Kluea Subdistrict Administrative Organization, [Online] [4] The majority of the population is engaged in occupations in the area such as farming, fishing, etc. Most people have to earn money to live in society. It, therefore, causes the people to turn their backs on Buddhism, focusing on morals, and earning money, causing the major principles of life. For this reason, the important duty y of leaders and monks is to find ways for the people in the community to have morality by various means.
Buddhist strong community development model is one of the projects that temples, communities, and government agencies are; Subdistrict Administrative Organization has jointly organized every Friday evening and Saturday morning during the Buddhist Lent Day season by circulating in each village. Activities held in the temple, the objective of the project is to create a network of monks in Bueng Kluea Sub-district to have unity as well as to develop the potential of the monks in Bueng Kluea Sub-district to have the potential to propagate Buddhist teachings more. In addition, this project also focuses on disseminating Buddhist principles to reach community leaders and people who had the opportunity to meet each other and come to know each other as people in the same district. The important thing is to train the mind to be a strong, spiritual anchor, and prevent serious problems that will come from a weak mind. Development, therefore, is considered to protect the community from further strengthening and cultivating the youth to have morals and morals in living in society by adhering to the principles of Buddhism.
