Oom Yung Doe: Adam Buchanan

The tiger is symbolic of the physical world and the dragons signify the mental or spiritual world. Together the symbols represent a harmony between both worlds. The Chinese symbol Yin/Yang (Oom/Yung) stands for balance of life.

School Ownership

Opening a school has been one of the most exciting and challenging moments of my life. I have been constantly challenged to quickly learn and adapt to new things, move with purpose, and strive for success. I have always wanted to be a part of teaching others how to improve their life and change their own reality and circumstances. My own life has been a constant struggle not to succumb to the negative environment that I was surrounded with, and to look along the Chung Doe pathway of hope, courage, honor and enlightenment. I feel that I now have the opportunity to share with others one of the strongest systems of principle and knowledge that I have found. Through my experience of teaching and helping others, I have learned that the only way to truly understand yourself and others, is by building and sharing this knowledge to establish a long and healthy life of peace and happiness. Through helping others improve their lives, I have found meaning and purpose in my life, resulting in the peace of mind and happiness I never could find before.
