Abstract
The formulation of a social group identity is strongly influenced by the historical context and institutional site in which reformulation of social identity occurred. As a result, the group has a common understanding and categories that unite them into sameness identity. It is what we have seen on the Sam Kaw Hwee Buddhist sect group as well as Buddha Jawi Wisnu sect group who in early New Order regime changed their identity into becoming Buddhayana Buddhist sect in Lampung. At a glance, the Majelis Buddhayana Indonesia (MBI, or Indonesian Buddhayana Council) was a meeting point of which Javanese and Chinese are encountered. Furthermore, MBI is regarded as a shared identity for most Buddhists in Lampung. This paper wants to explain the background and the process of reformulating new social identity, as well as the impacts around it.
The paper is based on a qualitative research that tries to understand the early formation of Buddhayana sect as the largest Buddhist sect in Lampung. MBI was as a new social identity resulting from interaction and negotiation its followers with external group who threatened the Buddhist group in Lampung in the past.
