IM itself is nothing new. It's ancient, in fact.

I believe for instance that loving-kindness meditation in Buddhism is really just a form of IM. It's an attempt to manifest love, peace and kindness in one's life.

In fact, you could see prayer (for peace, love, happiness etc) as a form of IM whereby the person praying attempts to manifest peace, love, happiness etc.
