Applied Wisdom is an encyclopedic compilation of all of the concepts that Lucille Cedercrans brought through, with the exception of the books and lesson materials already published by Wisdom Impressions. It covers almost 300 topics (some as small as a paragraph and some as large as short books), and includes samples from the entire period (from approximately 1950 through 1962) when Lucille was principally occupied with projecting The Wisdom.
Lois Lucille Stickle Johnson Cedercrans Schaible was the founder of the New Thoughtform Presentation of the Wisdom, and became an early Western teacher of the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism, first under Tarthang Tulku and later Dudjom Rinpoche.
