Abstract

This paper proposes a growth healing model derived from Yogācāra Buddhism to heal the symptoms of trauma and explores its modern availability. I offered the healing model as a process of growth, not just treatment of trauma symptoms. I considered trauma as anguish in that trauma symptoms are the cause of the pain, and paid attention to the anger (dveṣa), anxiety (auddhatya) and depression (styāna), which are the main symptoms of trauma. In addition, I constructed a growth healing model based on the five practice stage of Yogācāra Buddhism. It consists of three stages: first, cultivation of the good function of mind (kuśala-caitta), second, healing the mind through ‘four kinds of investigation’ and ‘four kinds of enlightenment,’ third, radical conversion of mind. In the first stage, I suggested a method of practice, paying attention to the control of anger through mercy, anxiety through equanimity (upekṣā), and depression through relaxation (praśrabdhi). In the second stage, I revealed the mechanism of ceasing the negative emotion such as anger, anxiety and depression through ‘four kinds of investigation’ and ‘four kinds of enlightenment’. In the third stage, I explained the process from the stage of added effort to that of no-leaking as the radical conversion of mind. And I suggested a way to check that state of mind. Based on this discussion, I compared the growth healing model with the post-traumatic growth. And I proposed that the growth healing model can fundamentally help heal trauma symptoms.
