Essential Education

Essential
(already known as Universal) Education expresses Lama Yeshe’s great educational vision, and organizes many initiatives aiming at the maturation and increase of the innate potential of wisdom, compassion, enthusiasm and love which are innate in every person, regardless of age, culture or faith.
Essential Education projects have been supported and developed also from
Lama Zopa Rinpoche, through the foundation of UCWP (Universal Compassion and Wisdom for Peace) E.E., to which His Holiness the Dalai Lama granted the honour of His support in December 2006.

In summer 2004 the initiatives of Essential Education Camps have resumed
also at LTK Institute (seat of the very first Summer Camps since 1984, for
some years).
During the Camps, working on a specific subject through various creative
activities, a group of qualified educators proposes an experiential-educational
process, inspired on E.E. principles. All gathered together with a wise mix of
joyous and playful energy, healthy humor, and the joy of education and selfeducation while playing!
Following a specific didactic framework, the camps have as its target youth
between 6 and 17 years of age (divided into age groups) and their parents
(with the actual participation of at least one of them).


Summer Camps at ILTK usually extend for one week in the month of July,
and are structured in specific activities with different groups in the morning,
and plenary sessions in the workshops of the afternoons, where youth and
adults are working together; besides, in the evening there is a
meeting/show which involves the whole group of participants.
The titles of the previous Summer Camps are: The fairies and wizards of the
senses, together with Fosca the witch (2004), Around the universe in seven
days (2005), Let’s enter in the mirror! (2006), At the School of the Light’s Knights (2007), A golden light Compass (2008).

Winter camps at ILTK usually take place in a week-end in February.
The titles of the previous ones are: The Yes tree and the No tree (2005), Cultivating kindness builds peace (2006), Forgiveness: the best of the
gifts (2007), Sharing the joy, a warm light on the path (2008), Humility, the true strenght (2009).

Istituto Lama Tzong Khapa - Pomaia – (PI) Essential Education:

Summer Camp 4-11 July 2010

Let's raise the anchor,
let's raise the sails!


A jurney for families looking for references throughout the waves of everyday life.



A distant and unknown land for most of the people. A queen, Satya, an example of truth and wisdom, who knows how to recognize the Treasures inside of all those that comes to her court; who knows how to welcome and listen.
At times we don't know our aspirations, in other moments we don't know how to realize them, we are afraid and we stop in front of inner and outer limits.
If you also have a Treasure inside of youself, if you have Treasures to realize, your most beautiful dreams, your deeper aspirations, follow the road to the kingdom of Atman, remain by Queen Satya and meet every day the characters that live in her court.
Set yourself comfortable and observe, but stay allert because the adventure starts from here.


In this week we will experiment together all the levels and the necessary steps to discover and reveal ourselves, to feed a dream and begin to put it into practice, and in the meantime to accept all that we already got.

We will work on this theme, referring also to tales and myths, through various
and funny creative activities, we will go through a formative and experiential
process, which is inspired to the principals of Essential Education.
The Camp is open to youth between 6 and 17 years of age (divided into different age groups) and to their parents (at least one parent each family),
with different groups in the morning, and plenary session in the workshops in
the afternoons, where youth and adults are working together.
