Golden Rules

To protect Holy Isle as a sacred space, we request that all who visit or stay here will endeavour to be in harmony with the island's aims of promoting world peace and health by following the Five Golden Rules:

• To respect life and refrain from killing and acts of violence or aggression

• To respect other people’s property and refrain from stealing, and from taking that which is not given

• To speak the truth and refrain from lying, gossiping and negative speech
• To encourage health and refrain from intoxicants (including alcohol, cigarettes/vapes and drugs)
• To respect others and refrain from casual sexual activity or sexual activity which could cause harm to other people

Please note that Holy Isle is not a rehabilitation centre and we are unable to offer support for people with current drink or drug issues, nor for those who have been through rehab in the last two years.

The Holy Isle Project is unable to offer support for people with mental health illness and we cannot accept responsibility for the mental health of our visitors.
