Abstract
This research aims to create a model of inner peace development through the Art of Literature in Thai society context for population quality development. This is descriptive and analytical-qualitative research. This research studied three Thai poets who had inner peace and were screened by highly qualified experts. There is a 1st-3rd person approach to study. The results showed that MIPDAL has four components: (1) Suitable persons; (1.1) one who is interested in expressing himself in writing or literature, (1.2) one who is interested in inner dimension or peace, (1.3) one who is open to learning for change; (2) The goal is Happiness. (3) Seven promoting factors of inner peace development, consisting of fundamentals; (3.1) Morale Instinct, (3.2) Love of Learning, (3.3) Refinement, and (3.4) Concentration, and the Art of Literature, (3.5) Words and Meanings, (3.6) Creativity, and (3.7) Rhythm; and (4) Seven phases of inner peace development: (4.1) Inspiration, (4.2) Mindfulness, (4.3) Concentration, (4.4) Awareness, (4.5) Planning, (4.6) Trial, and (4.7) Integration. This research has three recommendations: (1) literary enthusiasts can use MIPDAL to develop inner peace through seven factors, and those who dislike writing can develop inner peace through fundamental factors; (2) MIPDAL can be applied as a course; and (3) The model should be researched and experimented again.
