Happiness, Joy, Fulfillment, and Success all result from a greater understanding of our true nature.
With this understanding we reveal the true nature of our relationship to our surroundings.
Only then can we create unshakable joy and success in all our endeavors.

The
Threefold Lotus Kwoon is a school of Humanities founded
on Quantum Life Buddhist principles of a value creating
life. People of all disciplines are welcomed
here in a place with rolling hills and a nurturing
environment of a select few for opportunity to grow
and experience fully the "essential creative
core". Click Here
for a quick overview of Programs.
You don't have to be
a Buddhist to be a painter or sculptor. It is not necessary for you to be a Martial Artist
in order to understand Buddhism. Being an Artist does not make you a Martial Artist. But the
opportunity to "cross-polinate" all these is very powerful. To be a Martial Artist is to have
a deep appreciation of movement, balance, and expression. To be an artist is to have a keenly discerning
eye, a deep appreciation of form, balance, and expression. To be a Buddhist is to have a dedicated awareness
and a deep appreciation for life, equanimity, and expression. You may chose only one path among these, and
yet you will learn all three.
As
the ancient sages have all taught in some form, we
must experience and train our bodies, our minds, and
our spirits to their maximum potential in order to
develop "true" knowledge, "true"
health, and "true" understanding that leads
to compassion, strength, and fearlessness. A life
well lived.
The core of the Quantum Life philosophy practiced at the Threefold Lotus Kwoon is the integration of the three basic
elements of human life, namely the body, the mind, and the essential and innate creative core of our being. This
creative core is the fundament upon which we build our beliefs, our epistemology and the basis for all our relations
with the phenomenal world about us. The ultimate teachings of the Buddha provide the perfect framework to create a
happy and fulfilled life.
We have adopted specific activities that excel at this integration to be the consistent and daily activities around
which all other activities are structured. These activities of Taijiquan, Qigong, Buddhist practice (Nichiren School),
Fine Arts Trainning, Science of Mind trainning, and Massage, have thousands of years history. These activities are all
easy for anybody to begin, and offer an endless depth of skill and integration comensurate with the practitioners will.
We also offer books for self study and practice through www.lulu.com/kwoon with notable core books like "There is no
I" ISBN: 978-0-557-12298-1 and "Beyond Zen" ISBN 978-0-6152-1292-0 availavble also on Amazon and other online retailers.
