The Foundation for Developing Compassion and Wisdom (FDCW), a partner organization of the Foundation for the Preservation of Mahayana Tradition (FPMT), offers amazing opportunities for individuals who are eager to explore their mental and emotional states and to incorporate compassion into their everyday lives.
In 1983, Lama Yeshe began to conceive the concept of Universal Education, which he believed was necessary due to the outdated nature of traditional education and its role in causing conflict and dissatisfaction among the current generation. He proposed that a new, more expansive outlook on life was needed to replace old ideas and to provide people with a new imagination. This is what he meant by “universal.”
Universal Education is based on the 2,500 year old Buddhist tradition of empirical research and practical application. It is expressed in modern language and techniques that can be used by people from any background, and encourages an open-minded and hands-on approach.
