39 - MAITRI FÜR NEUROTIKER ?

The Mudra approach to theatre has a parallel in the Maitri project, which also got under way at this time.The idea for it arose from a discussion that Suzuki-roshi and I had concerning the need for a therapeutic facility for disturbed individuals interested in meditation. The Maitri approach to therapy involves working with different styles of neurosis through the tantric principles of the five Buddha families. Rather then beeing subjected to any form of analysis, individuals are encouraged to encounter their own energies through a meditation practice employing various posters in rooms of corresponding shapes and colours.
