Abstract

The word “Sacca” in Thai society has different definitions depending on the user’s objectives. This problem is present in the knowledge ecology in society. This research is philosophical research. The objectives were to: 1) study and interpret “the being on Sacca” according to postmodern philosophical concepts; and 2) create new knowledge about the being on Sacca. The research results showed that the being on Sacca (keep the word) based on postmodern philosophy fosters the capacity for creation, adaptation, collaboration and seeking the pursuit of an improvement in a good quality of life with the aim of authentic happiness, and answering questions of the opponents who confirmed that Keeping the word for improving the quality of life must come from religion and only with the teachings of the Prophet can be true goodness. The discussion revealed that keeping the word directly or indirectly from the prophets’ teachings also requires a foundation in one’s own knowledge and understanding. The people who keep the word must practice and investigate til they are aware of the results. The causal link between the truth and the person who keeps his word can be an objectively positive result. As a result of keeping the word, practitioners must feel good and happy from their own hearts that they got from practicing being on Sacca. It goes beyond faith devoid of feeling or thinking. Authentic happiness from religion is therefore the relationship between truth, goodness, and beauty that arises exclusively in those who keep the word personally. Thus, the Prophet's teachings are like guides or maps for those who are interested in faith to practice. It should not be used as a reference or guarantee the correctness or to exalt yourself as being better, superior, or purer without considering Sacca in other contexts.
