TSAWA

An acronym for “Traditions and Science for Awakening World Awareness”, Tsawa Foundation promotes the integration of knowledge provided by contemplative traditions and cognitive science, so that they can support, nurture and contribute to the dissemination of theoretical and instrumental points of view to understand and develop global consciousness to promote a fuller life and the integral health of individuals, communities and the planet.

 

Traditions: contemplative traditions

The timeless narratives, philosophical insights, and empirical bodies of knowledge that give our lives meaning and provide invaluable resources for unlocking our full human potential.

Science: cognitive sciences

Science represents humanity’s most systematic and rigorously tested body of knowledge. It serves as an essential instrument for uncovering the nature of ourselves and the world we experience.

Awakening: wake up

To transform consciousness from a mere possibility into an actual experience, it must be activated and supported with the right resources.

World

We believe awareness must be as broad as possible, embracing all beings and things —and made accessible to everyone.

Awareness

Our innate capacity to become aware, to know, to discern, to understand, to know ourselves and the world, and to live with true freedom and fulfillment.

TSAWA

Tsawa” also means, in Tibetan, “root” —a fitting metaphor for our vision. The Tsawa Foundation was created with the purpose of becoming:

A foundation

A solid, enduring foundation that enables individuals and communities to realize their full human potential.

A support

that nourishes and gives strength drawn from the wisdom of contemplative traditions and the insights of contemporary cognitive science.

A clear, profound vision

grounded in coherence and integrity.

A connection

to the most fundamental essentials, grounding us in our true place within the world.

A starting point

for transformation, equipped with proven‑effective tools.

A continuity

in the growth towards a more conscious life.

A constant search

deep down to connect with our essence and potential.

Because the roots are the foundation and, in addition to allowing the tree to grow towards the sky, they also grow, expanding into the earth and providing more and more stability and nourishment.

Our purposes

We promote people’s well-being and happiness by developing awareness, wisdom, and equanimity.

We promote a more conscious, healthy life in harmony with nature.
