Join Yuan Tze as he shares the foundation
of Ren Xue Education and invites us to co-create this
evolutionary wisdom-based system with him.
Let's take the next step towards a bright future for children, families, and humanity!
Designed as a three-year exploration starting from April 2026, this series guides us through the heart of Yuan Tze's transformative vision for Ren Xue Education. Over 10-days Yuan Tze shared the core philosophy and overarching vision as The Foundation.
Yuan Tze focused on the following areas:
- origin of and need for wisdom-based education
- primary goal, core purpose, and guiding principles of Ren Xue Education
- main components of the system, the stages, approaches, and the role of teachers, students, and culture
- ways in which family education will be both the foundation and extension of school education, seeing parents as co-educators
- structures of wisdom education, its principles & governance, its curriculum, assessment & personnel, and the physical & virtual learning environments
- operations required to support and iterate
We need people with diverse skills and contributions to bring this to reality.
Whether you are a parent, grandparent, educator or none of these, if helping families nourish their children in a way that helps their pure hearts stay intact and eases their work on changing patterns so they have the best possible opportunity to become a True Human, the first Ren Xue Education Course is a wonderful place to start.
You do not need to be a teacher of any kind. All enthusiastic hearts are welcome to co-create this new system together. This course is the beginning of something very special. It consists of a rich rhythm of teaching from Yuan Tze, summaries of Group Discussions, and Q&A with Yuan Tze to integrate and share insight.
This course will be followed by The Structure in 2027 and The Heart of the Home in 2028.
The Development of Ren Xue Education
Bringing Ren Xue teachings to children, young people, and their families has always been an important goal for Ren Xue. From 2026-2028 Yuan Tze, Ren Xue’s founder, will be working with Ren Xue teachers, our wider community, and experts in the field to create Ren Xue Education. Based on the wisdom of Ren Xue, this new education paradigm will nurture young lives in a truly supportive environment in order to preserve the innate purity of the heart and foster the healthy development of human potential.
Its evolution will be a process led by Dao, co-created with the community, and integrated with the development of Ren Xue’s first international training centre currently underway in Golden Bay, New Zealand. Its shape and content will come from Yuan Tze’s three-course series 2026-2028, and many conversations held over that time. The work to build all the necessary components for Ren Xue Education, including training and a potential pilot school, will start after the training center is in place. This could happen as early as late 2028, but there are many factors involved in a large project like this. You can stay updated with the development of Ren Xue Centre Australasia here.
At this early stage it is clear that Ren Xue Education will consist of school education with children and family education that sees parents as co-educators and nurtures a family environment that supports healthy growth for children. When the system is up and running we will need to recruit tertiary qualified teachers to deliver much of the school education curriculum, so a training program based on the Ren Xue curriculum will be developed to support this. Qualified Ren Xue teachers will have many opportunities to contribute to the delivery of training and to both the school and family education streams. Special programs and trainings will be developed to enable this.
Training of tertiary qualified teachers, Ren Xue teachers, and a pilot school will all happen in Golden Bay, New Zealand according to New Zealand regulatory requirements. Our goal is that training will be offered online, and with time, a prototype will be developed to enable Ren Xue Education to be shared globally.
Everyone is welcome to be part of the development of Ren Xue Education, and we will need many hands and diverse abilities to bridge this to the world. If you are interested in being part of this work, helping us build Ren Xue Education, or deeply understanding this vision so you may share it with your community, we encourage you to take part in these courses with Yuan Tze.
Designed as a three-year exploration, this series will guide us through the heart of Yuan Tze's transformative vision for Ren Xue Education.
This course took place in Golden Bay, New Zealand in April 2026 and was streamed worldwide online.

About Ren Xue and Yuan Tze
REN XUE’s founder, Yuan Tze, has lived in New Zealand since 2002. Born in China, Yuan Tze developed REN XUE and its disciplines after spending more than a decade in the West. REN XUE combines the best of both worlds. It draws from Yuan Tze’s deep knowledge of traditional Chinese wisdom culture including Daoism, Confucianism, Qigong, Buddhism, Traditional Chinese Medicine, I-Ching philosophy, Feng Shui, Taiji, Bagua and martial arts. Yuan Tze has integrated such ancient wisdom with modern philosophy, science, medicine, and technology to create a truly unique and comprehensive systems for developing the whole of life.
REN XUE is a wisdom system developed to help practitioners achieve greater health, happiness, sense of wellbeing, realization and wisdom. It helps us find inner harmony through practices that elevate body, mind and heart, which in turn helps us find outer harmony – in our personal relationships, with society, and with nature.
Learning from Yuan Tze
Learning from Yuan Tze is a unique experience, with his talks carrying powerful information infused with immense wisdom, love, and compassion. Such information can touch your life directly on a deep level and effect profound changes.
When talking, Yuan Tze uses far more than just the usual verbal communication. He also uses his heart and mind to directly transmit information to your heart and mind.
Yuan Tze's teachings are in Chinese and are interpreted by his wife, partner, and interpreter, Melissa. For core REN XUE terminology, Melissa will use the original Chinese terms. Translations of these terms can be read here to help further explain each term and their place within REN XUE.
It's important to remember that REN XUE is a big system and there is a clear path through it with lots of support. Concepts may be mentioned during lectures that you have not yet learned—being relaxed and open to Yuan Tze, and at ease with what you have not yet learned, will best support you to access the teachings.
The system of REN XUE has been developed by Yuan Tze to reflect totality, and as such, the delivery of the teachings is unique from other learning experiences. One of the treasures of Yuan Tze's teaching style is that it allows the participant to quietly contemplate the possibilities that lie beyond absolute answers. Compared to how we receive most of our information online these days, some may experience this as slow-paced or repetitive.
There are two main things that you can do to reach optimal results.
- Be in your heart
Open your heart and listen to the teaching with your heart. Connect with Yuan Tze's heart so he can exchange Qi and information with you smoothly. Unify with the Qifield and take everything into your heart. You can read more about heart-to-heart transmission here.
- Access the Qifield
A nourishing and powerful Qifield will be built for the event. This Qifield is to support all the participants so everyone can get the most out of the event. Opening your heart and unifying with the Qifield can help you get the most out of it.
Throughout the event, the Qifield will continue to change, and the change comes from the heart and consciousness of every participant. In other words, it is up to all participants to continue to uplift and strengthen the Qifield for the benefit of all.
