Incorporating Various Forms of Meditation
UPL draws on three forms of meditation, each from a different tradition: the mindfulness and loving-kindness of Buddhism, the Shinsokan of Seicho-No-Ie, and the Hawaiian practice of hoʻoponopono, which is a way of setting relationships right more than a meditation in the usual sense. Each has its own page. A follower may take up any of them, or another practice that serves the same end.
The forms
- Buddhist Meditation PracticesMindfulness of breathing and the cultivation of love for all beings: two Buddhist practices a follower of UPL may take up.
- Shinsokan MeditationShinsokan, the prayerful meditation of Seicho-No-Ie: how it is practised, and what UPL takes from it and what it does not.
- Hoʻoponopono MeditationHoʻoponopono, the Hawaiian family practice of setting relationships right, and the modern four-phrase form adapted from it.
