The most outstanding feature of Fode Drame's teachings is their originality. Originality in our times has become a rare commodity. Originality means creativity and depth of thinking, and all these qualities are found in the series of writings called Expansions by Fode Drame. Raised in the time-honoured spiritual traditions of the Sahilian region of Senegambian West Africa, Fode Drame is a unique teacher, in that he blends tradition with modernity, past with present, old with new, and in the end he provides the seeker with perfect tool to overcome his challenge and attain his or her quest. With this in mind, in 2005 Drame founded Zawiyah Foundation, a charitable organization, in Vancouver, Canada. The purpose of this foundation is to spread Drame's teaching about "accurate responding" locally and globally. According to Drame, "accurate responding makes the right impact and the right impact brings the right result."
