The advancement and development of technology and information will certainly have an impact on the creative industry, including music, which undoubtedly has a copyright. This copyright must be protected and enforced by appropriate laws considering the increasing risk of copyright infringement. For example, the copyright infringement case by the song "Helo Kuala Lumpur" against the song "Halo-Halo Bandung" clearly violates Article 40 Paragraph 1 and Article 7 Paragraph 3 of the Copyright Law. This is proven because the song has the same melody and rhythm, the lyrics have only been changed slightly, and the changes were made without the consent of the author and for commercial purposes. This infringement can be addressed through the Copyright Law and can be prosecuted through both civil and criminal proceedings with non-litigation or litigation methods.

This study examines the symbolic meanings in the Dhammapada text through a simple semantic approach. Many Buddhists understand the Dhammapada only literally, without exploring the deeper symbolic meanings intended to transform character and behavior. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method by analyzing ten selected verses from the Dhammapada, comparing their literal meanings (denotative) with symbolic meanings (connotative). The findings show that each verse in the Dhammapada contains moral wisdom that can be applied in daily life. For example, the metaphor of light represents wisdom, darkness represents ignorance, and the middle path represents balance in life. These findings have practical implications for Buddhist character education, where understanding symbolic meanings helps students internalize moral values more deeply than merely memorizing texts.
