Policies & Values
Our values are given in the five ethical precepts taught by the Buddha:
Behaviour to avoid | Behaviour to develop |
harming living beings | loving-kindness |
taking the not-given | generosity |
sexual misconduct | stillness, simplicity and contentment |
false speech | truthful speech |
taking intoxicants that cloud the mind | mindfulness; awareness |
A more detailed exposition of these precepts can be found in the Model ethical guidelines
