Abstract
Drawing on ancient wisdom and multiple forms of knowing, the U-Process is a theory, a dialogic process, a practice and a language. Tis article discusses the background of the process and the author's personal experiences with it.
The U-Process operates on the belief that insights into many of our most intractable problems, large and small, can be accessed by those willing to cultivate capacities and the right conditions. Taken together these form wha tcan be thought of as a practice of regeneration and innovation. These capacities and conditions are not new or unique in any way but in a very real way have been marginalised in the hyper-rational public spaces of the West. The U-Process is an attempt to re-legitimise these capacities, to complement our rationality with non-rational ways of knowing. In accessing these spaces and capacities, we shift the place from which we act.
