The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of recovery from disease in the patients doing a kind of Buddhist meditation, and to develop a grounded theory about meditation.
Data was collected by an in-depth interview using tape-recordings from sixteen participants doing meditation. The data was analyzed using the grounded theory method proposed by Strauss and Corbin(1998).
The core category was discovering the true self. The participants began to do meditation because of their disease. They experienced obstacles due to incomplete religious acceptance. However, their faith grew gradually based on religious experiences that were indescribable. Finally, they entirely trusted the inner healer, which is emphasized in meditation. The strategies that they used were self reflection and seeking help for accepting deep meditation. They were stabilized in physical, psychological and social daily living. The processes of discovering the true self were identified as entering religious discipline, embodying religious discipline, self-accomplishing religious faith, and recovering mind-body health.
This study provided the understanding of mind-body integration. Empirical research may be needed to prove scientifically the effects of meditation.
本研究旨在探索进行一种佛教冥想的患者从疾病中康复的经历,并构建一个关于冥想的扎根理论。
通过对16名进行冥想的参与者进行录音深入访谈来收集数据。使用施特劳斯和科尔宾(1998年)提出的扎根理论方法对数据进行分析。
核心类别是发现真实的自我。参与者因疾病开始进行冥想。由于宗教接纳不完全,他们经历了障碍。然而,基于难以言表的宗教体验,他们的信仰逐渐增强。最后,他们完全信任冥想中所强调的内在治愈者。他们采用的策略是自我反思和寻求帮助以接受深度冥想。他们在身体、心理和社会日常生活中得以稳定。发现真实自我的过程被确定为进入宗教修行、体现宗教修行、自我实现宗教信仰以及恢复身心健康。
本研究提供了对身心整合的理解。可能需要实证研究来科学证明冥想的效果。
