"Our organization is like no other.
We are committed to making the world a safer, humane and peaceful planet." The core of our approach is "The way of Oneness."

This philosophy "The Way of Oneness" is one of our most basic principles and pervades within in all of our activities. Our open approach concentrates on individual's growth rather than on a particular dogma.
This is our emphasis because we believe that it will also make sense
to those who may not come from a Buddhist background.

We are comprised of groups of ,educators, students, martial arts and individuals who believe that through compassion, meditation, prayer, education, and action they can make a difference in the world.

We are a group of dedicated individuals with a common vision:
committed to peace, education, non-violent conflict resolution, environmentalism, sustainability, kindness, personal empowerment,
and community activism. >>>>>>>>
