Visie
A world where all beings live in harmony with themselves, each other and their surroundings. Living such a balance is a dynamic process of being aware of the balance between the male and female principles, expressed for example, in thinking and feeling, giving and receiving, physical power and power of vulnerability. The vision portrays a deeply ingrained awareness of the interconnectedness of all life on earth.
Missie
To contribute to a better understanding, awareness and application of balanced and inclusive behaviours.
