Tutorial Day: Humaniversity Psychology

Description

Humaniversity Psychology is a synthesis of selected principles from diverse schools of western psychology and eastern existential thought. It is oriented generally toward the holistic psychological growth, development and fulfilment of the human being. More specifically, it encourages self-realisation, gained through the experience of self-love, meditative awareness, and the practice of authentic loving friendship with others. It draws in particular from various schools of the human potential movement and integrates Freudian concepts, learning theory, and the work of Erich Fromm and others on the nature of love. Humaniversity Psychology is significant for the incorporation of the eastern practice of meditation as a means of personal growth, and especially notable for its development of the principles and practice of Social Meditation – an active and socially interactive process in which the participant’s inner awareness, objectivity, therapeutic recovery, personal growth, and social integration are considerably supported.
