The experience

We welcome volunteers who have a genuine and sincere interest in developing on the spiritual path. Offering service in this way is far more than a convenient lodging, we invite volunteers to live, work, study, practice and meditate with us and to apply compassionate mindfulness, following the Buddhist teachings during their stay. We encourage our volunteers to make the best use of this opportunity and attend all classes, pujas and events.

Rules

We ask all volunteers to abide within the 5 precepts of moral conduct at all times.
These are:
Protect living beings (refrain from killing, even small insects)
Respect others’ belongings (refrain from stealing and taking anything not freely given)
Speak truthfully (refrain from lying)
Refrain from sexual contact (to create a space for spiritual introspection and development with less distraction; dressing modestly is also encouraged)
Refrain from using intoxicants, e.g. alcohol, tobacco, etc. (to help cultivate clarity of mind and body, and create a safe, calm environment for everyone)
