Inclusivity

Reading Buddhist Priory is open to all who truly seek the way.

Buddhism teaches that the whole of existence is Buddha. As all beings and all people are part of this, we should not discriminate, and all should be treated with respect and dignity.

Reading Buddhist Priory is committed to the inclusion and recognition of all who visit the Priory, or practise with us, regardless of race, age, culture, ability, ethnicity or nationality, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, marital status, religious affiliation, or socio-economic status.

No-one will be prevented from practising at the Priory, or be discriminated against, on the basis of any of these characteristics.

We affirm the worth and dignity of everyone who visits the Priory. We respect the wide range of perspectives and lived experiences that people have, and we welcome this diversity.
