CENTRE FOR UNIVERSAL UNITY
CENTRE POLICIES
At Mahamudra Centre, our policies are designed to create a respectful, supportive, and safe environment for all who visit.
At Mahamudra Centre, all residents and visitors are asked to follow these five ethical guidelines while on the property:
-
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)

pet policy
We have a no pet policy, with two exceptions:
-
If you are travelling with your dog, we invite you to stop to walk your pet around the stupa at the entrance of the property, walking clockwise 3 times as a blessing, but please not on other parts of the property and always keep your pet on the lead or in its crate.
-
With advance special permission from the office.
This rule is necessary because we have endangered bird life on our property, particularly brown teals and banded rails that can be scared and hurt by dogs, especially in nesting areas.
