Theology
The purpose of the federation is to preach Buddha Dharma to the ordinary people and let them understand that Buddha Dharma is true through the Buddhist faith.[1] In this process, they discovered the upasakas of different Buddhist Dharmas hold a lot of misunderstanding. This was not the true meaning of Buddhism. So the federation will provide a platform which can communicate to every Dharma practitioner.[1]
