Summary:碩士 === 輔仁大學 === 心理學系 === 91 === Abstract The purpose of this study was to discuss the experience of using the tradition of Buddha’s thoughts to solve others or subject’s problem. Voluntarily participators who renounce the world as monks were invited from Dharma Drum Mountain in this study. For keeping the original meaning of the tradition, the researcher experienced the phenomenon first and selected the method of ground theory in constructive inquiry paradigm. Analyzing and integrating the data of phenomenon was used to realize the concept and meaning of the participators during the helping process. Results showed that subjects achieved themselves more integrated, relax, stable, and satisfied to more awareness and sensitive situation through using the notion and method of the Buddhists doctrine and provided these methods for peopled who needed it. In the perspective of stabilization of mind, we found a different way to think about the professional helping that conclusion form this research. The helping in the Buddhist doctrine is the perspective of helping to a helper self first that''s different from a traditional therapist''s work, and then helping people themselves become more stabilization for their problem solving. And there are many techniques in the Buddhist doctrine can train our mind to become more stable, that can be an indigenous and cultural way to think about the improving of the psychotherapist’s training. Last, the paradigm and research method that use in this research appear very big restrict to comprehensive the phenomenon of the Buddhist doctrine. That’s still an important finding in the discussion, to understand the paradigm in the tradition of Buddhist doctrine will be the most important way to break through the limitation, and that can be the foundation of further dialogue between the Buddhist doctrine and psychology.
