Abstract

<p>  Ｍ other Leaf（NPO）is a group for the purpose of training listening volunteers and counselors. Mother Leaf requires the trainee to undergo intensive Naikan as a necessary subject. We started The Naikan Picture Book Psychological Study Group in 2009, groping for a method that would help to spread Naikan and to convey something of the Naikan approach. Using picture books, we assume that the hero in the stories = ourselves; any pictures= original scenes from our life and upbringing. Viewing the situations carefully, and considering the feelings of the various characters leads us to daily Naikan. When participants look at themselves, consider others, and deeply notice the life and love they have received, and further, find a spirit of forgiveness, they try to become independent from addiction, victim consciousness and selfishness. We have been learning from each other for eight years, and for seven years have run a Naikan Picture Book Psychological Study Group in Okayama Prison. The one method for these participants to get daily Naikan is through their encounter with the Naikan Picture Book Psychological Study Group. We consider whether these participants have noticed improvements and feelings of self-emancipation through this form of daily Naikan.</p>
