Our Philosophy
To teach love, one must embody it.
To embody love, one must see all as divine.
To see all as divine, one must practice methods
of contemplation and inner reflection.
Only then will one embody the true spirit of
universal outlook in their thoughts and actions.
Neo-Humanism is our guiding principle. It is an ecological and holistic philosophy.
Neo-Humanism is the spirit of benevolence. We follow a vegetarian diet, practice yoga every morning, and meditation twice a day.
These children have suffered severe trauma and abuses. The Neo-Humanistic approach encourages the children to develop compassion towards themselves and towards others above all else.
