Each course/seminar requires a written registration, preferably via the registration form on the website www.shedrupling.at. It is also possible to register by email to office@shedrupling.at, in person at the She Drup Ling Graz center or before/after an event or course. By registering, the conditions of participation are recognized. The registration deadline is stated in the seminar or course information. The registration is only valid with the transfer of the respective donation amount to the account:

Unless otherwise stated, the events are open to all and do not require religious denomination. However, participation in an event at She Drup Ling Graz requires membership of the Association for the Promotion of Buddhist Values. With the binding registration for an event or at the beginning of the event, if no registration is required, those persons who are not already full, supporting or honorary members automatically acquire extraordinary membership for the duration of their stay at the event location.

Pricing and financing

The maintenance of our Buddhist center is financed by membership fees and donations for the events. For all renovations and for the further improvement/expansion of the infrastructure of the center, further donations are the only basis. Please support us.

Reservation

We reserve the right to cancel the event due to insufficient numbers of participants or other important reasons or reasons for which we are not responsible (e.g. illness of the speaker). Any donations already paid will be refunded. Further liability and compensation claims are excluded. Flight and train tickets will not be refunded.

Conduct

In both our centers, we adhere to the five ethical guidelines in Buddhism (The 5 Practices for Developing Ethical Behavior):

  1. Support life – do not kill
  2. Practice generosity – do not steal
  3. Sexual abstinence – no sexual activity
  4. Listen attentively and speak empathetically and truthfully – do not lie
  5. Mindful use of physical and mental food – no drugs, no alcohol

Partial nullity

Should individual provisions of these General Terms and Conditions be or become void, ineffective or contestable, the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected and shall then be interpreted or supplemented in such a way that the intended economic purpose is achieved as precisely as possible in a legally permissible manner. This also applies to any loopholes that need to be filled.

Liability

The liability of the Association for the Promotion of Buddhist Values for personal injury, financial loss and damage to property is limited to intent and gross negligence.

Liability in the event of loss of clothing, valuables or money brought along is also excluded.

The use of services provided by the Association for the Promotion of Buddhist Values is at the participant’s own risk.

The Association for the Promotion of Buddhist Values rejects any liability towards participants and third parties. The teachers and retreat leaders of the Association for the Promotion of Buddhist Values carry out the individual services professionally and conscientiously in accordance with the principles of proper execution and endeavor to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the content and the data and information provided as part of their services.
