Code of Conduct
Rigpa is an international community of individuals following the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. It is our shared wish to create a safe environment for the study and practice of the Buddhist teachings, one where we all feel a sense of responsibility for each others’ well-being and spiritual path.
Whatever your participation or role in the activities associated with Rigpa, everyone has a responsibility to conduct themselves in accordance with the laws of the land and the ethical behaviour outlined in the Rigpa Code of Conduct. We ask that you agree to abide by our Shared Values and Guidelines while you are on retreat.
In addition to these principles, we wish to inform you that smoking is prohibited in the main retreat area, along with the use of alcohol and illicit drugs. (An exception is that some alcohol may be available at a celebration at the end of the retreat). Pets are not allowed on site (with the exception of guide dogs).
